Merryvale Vineyards

We had been to two wine tastings at other wineries in Calistoga. We decided to swing around to St. Helena where Merryvale's wine tasting room is located since we decided to take in another experience. While we didn't have any reservations, we could have a couple of glasses of wine at the main bar, which was very nice, as was the bartender who served us.

We enjoyed the red and white we ordered, while taking up a couple of stools at the bar. The wine tasting room was spacious and rustic but polished due to the light woods used for the bar counter and gift shop area. There was a stoned cellar room for more private tastings.

Overall, it was a good spot to enjoy some local wine by a winery out of Napa Valley, and very convenient if you are spending the day in downtown St. Helena.

This place is now in my list of top 5 wineries in Napa. Recently went with friends at the recommendation of a local distributor. Snacks were typical cheese, nuts, and crackers to keep your palate neutral during tastings. The atmosphere was so cool though. One of the oldest operations in Napa, and the wines are fantastic. They also sell Profile as their higher tier wine, but we loved the Merryvale wines for their excellent quality for the price.

I had a wonderful time here at Merryvale. They're in a great location and they have plenty of parking. The private rooms inside a massive barrel were so fun and unique.

This is a great place to stop off for a tasting. I really enjoyed their Cabernet Sauvignon.

Nice wine tasting experience. Book in advance and pay in advance for the tasting. We enjoyed our experience and they let us add a wine into our tasting. They had all the glassware and water setup for us when we arrived and the whole experience was rounded out by outstanding staff. No one was too stuffy and everyone was knowledgeable and friendly. We chatted quite a bit about a places to eat and places to go.
We were members back in the day, but we are not big drinkers and the shipments would come in too frequently for us. We built up a huge stash in a year. However, I do recall the wines in the shipment were excellent.

On a busy Saturday we were able to walk in about 3pm and get a reserve tasting without reservations! Hats off to the staff that came through for us as in Napa now reservations are required for place you really want to taste. I've drank this wine many times before and love their Pino's and Cabs!

Highly recommend visiting Merryvale. Patti was fantastic. She is very knowledgeable, very friendly, and made mine and my wife's afternoon. Ask for her.

Absolutely some of the best wine we've had in Napa.

What a fantastic and fun experience. Our reserve tasting was awesome! The winery is beautiful and classy our host was funny and a wealth of knowledge. We went into a walk in wine room that had some of their oldest vintages. I think I saw one from 1998! We will be back to try more cabs!

On our trip to Napa Valley, Merryvale was the second of three wineries we had scheduled to see, and the only one we went back for a second day, AND joined their membership club. Honestly the wine is that good, but not only that, the service was impeccable! The first day we had Ian as our guide which was amazing, he walked us through the event room and gave us a tour of the wine barrels. He explained the wines wonderfully leaving us to enjoy them at our own pace. On the second day we had Christian, who was equally amazing providing a walk in tasting at the bar. Again Christian provided wonderful insight to the wines but allowed us time to enjoy them at our own pace. We finished the second tasting with a bottle to enjoy at the bar. Christian provided some great tips for future visits as well as a great place to grab lunch. The Aztecs Market was a great recommendation for. 10/10 we are already planning our next trip out to Napa to go back to Merryvale!

We had a lovely experience at Merryvale today. Our host was Chris and he did an outstanding job. The tasting room is beautiful. We've driven by it several times and never realized the hidden gem that hides inside their doors. The history is amazing and the wines are delicious. Thank you Chris for making the experience so memorable. We will be back!

PHENOMENAL! My mother and I showed up on a misty Sunday and had an amazing experience at this gem of a winery. Assistant Manager, Jeremy Maron greeted us and walked us through an incredible tasting experience. His sense of humor and his quick-witted way made it such a fun day. Loved the variety of wines in our Signature Tasting package, and the classy and elegant presentation, including the stunning stemware. We purchased 4 bottles to enjoy at home. We will most definitely be returning when the weather is nicer, so we can further enjoy all that Merryvale has to offer with their gorgeous outdoor seating and live music. The welcoming and intimate experience was the best. Thanks again, Jeremy!!
