Have always loved Duckhorn wines and their sibling wines even better. The Duckhorn Merlot and Goldeneye Pinot remain favorites. This tasting was our favorite over 2 days as the Duckhorn family seats you like civilized human beings and pours a generous taste with some almonds, crackers and knowledgeable, attentive staff. Don't miss...

Excellent wines and they know it. They do have great wines, but I would prefer the winery with a little less pretention. The wines were fine the gift shop was overpriced.

The tour was informative and our favorite. The seated tasting was by far our the best one on our trip. It felt like we were being hosted for drinks at someone's home.

The grounds were lovely, and the wine was ok, but it was not spectacular. I would choose other wineries over this one if I was picking. It is also a little expensive at $20 for a tasting, so share if you go with someone. You can always add on.

We were part of a private tasting. The tasting room in the back of the property is beautiful. We were treated to over an hour of tasting wines from Paraduxx and Duckhorn. Make sure to see the jade duck in the tasting room! The public tasting room is full of light and the seating area is awesome. We enjoyed the... More

Our experience was the most commercial experience of our trip. Very busy but seemed to just hoard people through. Wine was good but we like a more custom experience.

My fiancee is a big fan of these wines - if you like reds it is the place to go. $20 tastiing fee - but still worth the trip.

This is the way to taste wine...seated at a table, with your own wine educator pouring the best the winery has to offer. There are always more wines to taste than the five they start you with. If you want to know more about their sister-wineries (Paraduxx or Goldeneye), be sure to ask if you can sample. A great way... More

This was the first winery we visited where you were seated at a table. My travel partners and I preferred this tasting because we were able to socialize and taste great wines with minimal interruptions from the Duckhorn representative. The Duckhorn grounds are beautiful and we wish we had weather that would have let us take advantage of this nice... More
