15 Best Wine Bars near Saint Helena

“Highly recommend this property! Staff was exceptional! Looking forward to returning!“

“Reserved a tasting and three course lunch. Was an awesome experience with a personalized touch from the lovely couple that owns Night wines. Well worth the experience and food was amazing. The tasting had a chocolate Truffle that was like having a frozen hot chocolate in a ball. Lunch was a steak sandwich that was to die for. And dessert was a chocolate mouse cake that sealed the deal.“

“We had a magical time at our wine tasting at the Saint! From beginning to end, the experience and the staff were excellent. I had accidentally booked our tasting for the wrong month, but the staff was able to quickly accommodate us anyway. The tasting was phenomenal, with four wines paired with complementary cheeses. We were looking forward to tasting some mountain wines for our last tasting of the trip, and we were blown away by the quality and depth of these wines! The tasting prices at the Saint are an absolute steal for the quality of the wines and the luxurious tasting experience.

Our wine-tasting guide, Christopher, grew up in the Napa region, and his deep knowledge of wine in general (from the vineyards to the table), and these specific wines in particular, was clear throughout our tasting. One of the things I appreciate the most about Christopher is that he is not only knowledgeable and professional, but he is also a great listener. He didn’t have a “spiel” or stiff monologue like some guides. Instead, he gave us key information as he poured each glass, answered our many questions, and talked with us about the nose and palate of the wines we tasted. His great listening was evident when he was able to respond to specific comments and make tailored recommendations based on the tasting notes we liked the most. We ended up going “off road” to try some different wines on his recommendations, including some incredible Night Wines (from a small-production, very high-elevation winery which I believe is owned by some of the same people who own the Saint—if you are in the bar, definitely try their wines!). Our group was very slow—we take a lot of notes and take our time smelling and tasting—but Christopher was very relaxed. He adapted to our pace and reassured us that we could take our time, which made the experience even more luxurious. When the wine started to go to our heads and we asked if there was any way if we could order an unplanned cheese tray, Christopher and other staff members quickly put together a beautiful platter for us with nuts, cheeses, crackers, and herbs. They were even able to provide some homemade gluten-free crackers when I let them know about my allergy. At the end of the tasting, we ended up buying several bottles, some of which we plan to put away in our cellar and are very excited to open someday.

I would highly recommend the Saint to anyone who is visiting the region and wants to try some top-notch, complex, highly structured mountain wines without driving up the mountain itself! Thank you to Christopher and everyone at the Saint who helped give us such an amazing experience!“

“Great spot to grab a bottle of wine or tasting before dinner. No need to pay the $55-$125 tasting fees in the wineries.
The owner was lovely and gracious.
Grab a bottle here as they have great selection and pay the corkage, you will save money from the ridiculous mark ups in the local restaurants…“

“We decided to stop for lunch in downtown Yountville. We ordered two cheeseburgers (my husband's burger was a double), fries to share and two drinks. The food was fresh and delicious. But we were sticker shocked by the price. It ended up being $70! The staff were also not very friendly. The atmosphere was small and cozy (best suited for 1-2 people). Overall it was a fun afternoon but probably would only go on special occasions as tbe price point is high.“

“Great spot. Rooms are nicely designed.“

“I had another great dining experience a RH Yountville! The staff was excellent and the dishes ordered were amazing! RH Yountville only uses the finest ingredients in their dishes from farm fresh airloom tomatoes, lobster, mozzarela in the Burrata, there is no bad dish in this establishment, and their cheffs take the quality in their dishes very seriously. Thanks for another great dining experience! Cant wait to return!“

“Wonderful 3 Michelin star experience from beginning to end. Very welcoming throughout the experience. Immaculately maintained facilities. Loved the attention to details and personal touches. Never seen such a clean and well ran kitchen like that before. Food was nothing short of amazing with many different courses and options. We will talk about the food and reference our favorite dishes from here on out. The bar is set very high. Lisa and her staff made sure our experience was top notch.“

“I’ve been a wine club member for nine years, but I live in North Carolina and have limited opportunities to actually visit in person. I had the opportunity to make a visit Thursday, and it was truly spectacular. Everyone made a wonderful attempt to make me feel so special and I thoroughly enjoyed the club experience wine tasting. Chef Nic and Todd put on a world class tasting and I can’t wait to come back the next time I’m in town. Katie helped me book the reservation via text and it was so seamless! The entire course of food was amazing! Thank you, Chef Nic! Todd was great conducting the actual wine tasting, He was super knowledgeable about the history of Peru and was completely personable about his journey from OH to get there, but also just present enough to make it a thoroughly enjoyable two hours with my colleague! Thank you so much for the wonderful experience!“

“Napa Valley’s new hidden gem is Robert’s Tropical Table located in a converted breezeway/parking lot adjacent to the Mount View Hotel right here in Calistoga. Robert has been known for a decade as one of the handful of magical mixologists in our Valley having a long bar run at Sol Bar (until they closed for remodel and Covid) and then Brasswood before launching his rendition of a Jamaican Beach Cafe. His Ocho Rios roots come alive with a delicious selection of jerk chicken, pork belly, and wings with an escovitch fish perhaps better than mine. And never to be missed are the festival dumplings and a perfect Dark and Stormy. Open DAILY when the music is playing and gates are ajar (3pm to 10pm).“
