As we made our way through the Silverado trail, we stopped at the beautiful Quintessa Vineyard. This place was elegant, classy and inviting. We were offered waters before starting our tour and he lead us up a few sets of stairs to the special upgraded tasting room. When we got there, it was breathtaking. The view of the endless rows of vines that expanded in all directions was breathless. I was in shock that WE get to taste in this beautiful space with this amazing view. Our tour guide Gregory was so friendly and gave us a memorable experience. Going through each wine and sharing us wonderful stories. We had some snacks to much on to accompany our wines. He was so kind to take photos for us afterwards and shared some special wines with us at the end. All in all, we are so glad we chose to do the upgrade because you don’t get to sit in basically is what I would call a modern treehouse and drink so delicious wines!

Wow! Views views! I honestly came across Quintessa on TikTok and booked right away. We booked the Quintessential Experience which includes a private open air pavilion with spectacular views of the estate. Our host Mike was wonderful. We love when we visit a winery and the host tells us stories and feels like a friend. We became members on the spot! We already can’t wait to be back.

Kind of underwhelming. No vibe. Seemed very clinical. And not very friendly as compared to other premium wineries.

Hi i visited this winery in Dec/2025. Great property beautiful ambient. Very professional staff. High end wine. I like white better than red.

Amazing experience and awesome wines.

The grounds are beautiful, but the tour only gives you a fleeting glimpse before moving everyone into a dark, closed-off room. While the wine itself is good, the whole experience feels more pretentious than welcoming. For the price, it’s just not worth it anyway you look at at.

Amazing highly recommend the 2015

Paul took good care of us during our tasting - excellent product and off-road vehicle property tour. I tend ask a lot of questions and Paul never hesitated in amply suppling me with knowledge about the property (prior to winery history) and how these 260+ acres, and on-property lake, all coalesce with local wildlife.

This was our favorite place by far and I have been dreaming of it ever since. The property is stunning. Feels like you are in Tuscany. The wines were more than beautiful. Our host was Gregory and he was fantastic. He was so knowledgeable and fun to engage with.
We did the Autumn at the Estate tour at Quintessa and it was absolutely fantastic. The experience began with a scenic drive around the property, followed by a stunning charcuterie board paired perfectly with their amazing wines. Our guide, Lisa, was phenomenal: knowledgeable, warm, and made the entire visit feel special. The views were breathtaking, the wine outstanding, and the service top-tier. The staff makes you feel genuinely welcome and their passion for the craft shines through. This is a must-visit Napa experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the exquisite winery Quintessa. We were greeted by birdsong and took the brief stroll up the hill for the stupendous view. Our host Hector, was top notch and quite expert. He provided us with interesting explanations of the property and wine and was so pleasant and enjoyable it made for a great experience.

It was a picture perfect day at Quintessa. After a short walk (or golf cart drive) up to the hilltop, one can overlook all the beautiful biodynamic and organic vineyards and their own reservoir. HECTOR was our host and we lucked out having him share his knowledge of the very interesting history of the winery and the nuances of their beautiful wines. He makes the tour fun and you walk away appreciating the care of the property and the lovey winemaking the female winemaker puts into each bottle. A lovely cheese/ charcuterie plate is brought to the table. This is truly a Napa Valley winery not to miss.

Quintessa is a crown jewel among Napa Valley wineries, offering an immersive and elegant experience that reflects its commitment to biodynamic farming and exceptional winemaking. Nestled in the heart of Rutherford, the estate is a harmonious blend of natural beauty and architectural sophistication, with sweeping vineyard views and a serene, thoughtfully designed tasting pavilion. Each visit feels intimate and curated, with guided tastings that showcase their flagship Bordeaux-style red blend—complex, balanced, and expressive of the unique terroir. From the first sip to the last view of the rolling hills, Quintessa delivers a truly elevated and memorable Napa Valley experience.

Hands-down, our favorite wine tour and tasting. Amazing vineyard views with golf cart transport and private winetasting building. Our host was incredible explaining the process and answering all of our questions.
