Great staff, able to juggle many people and still answer all our questions. And the wine is great too.

A great tasting, good selection of both whites and reds and helped by capable, knowledgeable and fun staff. Fabulous setting on the Silverado trail that also offers picnic possibilities

Good wines, but an average tasting experience. Staff was a little too busy.

After our disaster at "The Castle" the day before, we made a pact to stick to the smaller wineries - and how right we were! Cuvaison is a small winery on the Silverado Trail. There were just four of us “tasters” and our host (or are they sommeliers?) was very helpful and interesting. We tasted some good chardonnays, pinot noir,... More

Lots of picnic tables with vineyard views. Wine is excellent, you will want to buy a bottle to enjoy with a picnic and to take home. Helpful and knowledgeable staff. They offer a picnic package available on their website in advance.

Nice winery but $15 for the cheapest taste per person. We were going to buy some wine they said they do not waive the tasting fee of $30 for two (very small tastes also) we are members of numerous wine clubs and this put us off spending more money and joining their wine club

I booked a visit to Cuvaison's Carneros tasting room (as opposed to their Calistoga tasting room) as it got good reviews on TA, and it was literally across the road from Domaine Carneros, which I really wanted to visit. I didnt know much about Cuvaison before I arrived, but by the time I left I felt well-acquainted! The Carneros tasting... More

Excellent wine tasting room with a great view(even on a rainy day) and service. If you plan on stopping by Domaine Carneros, I also recommend Cuvaison as it's literally straight ahead as you exit the other winery. The best Chardonnay that I had in Napa Valley during my visit. Took up the opportunity to visit based on the offer on... More

This was the first stop on our wine tour yesterday. Although we greatly enjoyed the wine, views & company, our wine server, Austin had a very poor attitude. He was very short with our guide - who had made a reservation with a Travis over the phone, the minute we entered the place. I am speaking on behalf of my... More

I have been visiting Cuvaison every year for the past 8 years, and all I can say is that their wines are getting better and better. I just came back from a tasting where I enjoyed the 2007 S Block and 2008 Carneros Chardonnay, and the 2007 Robert Nicol and Block F5 Pinots. I thought that the quality of each... More
