Fabulous experience; Kevin was our host! AXR was the best wine of our 3 day tour hands down. It was wonderful and I’m excited for our shipments/membership. I agree with others that it’s the pinnacle of the trip!

AXR Winery is a gem in Napa! The property is stunning, with magical redwoods adding to the charm. After a week of wine tastings, AXR stood out. Our host, Steven, was awesome – super knowledgeable and really made the experience special. And the wines? Just fabulous. Definitely make sure to add AXR to your Napa wine tour – you won't regret it! ?

Wonderful experience at AXR. John was an amazing ambassador. Not only were the wines fantastic, but we weren't rushed and the tasting felt very personal. They were also amazingly accommodating with our 5m old son. We will definitely return. Thank you for a great day.

We loved AXR! This is our 5th trip to Napa and this was one of our faves. Kevin was wonderful and the grounds were gorgeous. The wine was absolutely fabulous and we can’t wait for our shipment to arrive. AXR will not disappoint!

This was the absolute pinnacle of our trip to Napa Valley. I'm glad we went here last, because if we had started here... everything else would have been a disappointment. If you visit one winery on your trip, make AXR the one.First, our wine host Melissa was a complete joy to spend 2 hours with. By the end of our tasting, she was like family. Her knowledge of wine is amazing and we learned a lot. She also gave us a quick tour of the property on foot despite the rain. We may have even tasted a wine or two not on the list.Second, the wines are quite honestly the best I've had top to bottom. The grenache was a pleasant surprise. Their 2021 line-up tastes like something that's been aging for 6 years vs 3. There is no doubt these wines will age spectacularly and if you are a collector, they source from single vineyards that are limited and hard to get your hands on.Third, winemaker Jean Hoefliger, is in very high demand in the valley and working with some great wineries. His creativity and Bordeaux background are nothing like I've experienced. I can't say enough about the structure, depth and fruit that he ties together... it's simply "joy" in a bottle.Needless to say, we joined the club and are looking forward to our next visit.

Wines and tasting experience were superb. Extra points for our host John - it felt like we were talking to an old friend, and certainly did not feel like we were there for over an hour and a half. The knowledge he imparted as a former member of the wine-making-team also provided a unique perspective. It almost made amends for him being a Celtics fan (almost). Can’t wait for a return visit, and catch up with John over glasses of vino.
On our last day at Napa on 12/29/2023 we visted this great winery. We had the pleasure and the honor of being hosted by both Don and Mark 2 of the Fab 4. They were both very attentive, generous, and made our visit very pleasant. Although they normally don't host visitors (according to them) we felt they did a magnificent job with respect to the tour and the tasting itself. We enjoyed several of their wines and took some home to enjoy once again. Highly recommended.

The wine here is out of this world! I am so impressed, no other cabernet tastes the same anymore. Their signature wines are unbelievable!I don't want to go anywhere else anymore. Of course, I got a membership and the beautiful special cases just arrived!!!

Hands down one of the best wineries of our entire trip to Napa. Aida hosted us and was top notch. She was our favorite host the entire trip. The wine was fantastic. You will not be disappointed!

This is our second time to AXR winery. We have been up to Napa about 4-5 times. We have been to all the trendy and large wineries. We wanted something different. What a treat every time. The people that work here are an absolute pleasure to be around. Tons of fun and laughs. The wine is absolutely the secret of Napa. It’s very very good. Super delicious and smooth. It’s almost like I’m doing myself a disservice by sharing how great they are. We plan to keep coming back again and againYou can either get John or Aida. They are both great. The winemaker/owner has an absolute passion for what he is doing here and he is making wine in small batches.Highly recommend if you love a beautiful place with great wine.
