We have been a fan of Duckhorn Vineyards and their portfolio of wines for years, but we have never visited until this year. We arrived for our tasting and were escorted to our table outside of the beautiful home to Duckhorn Vineyards.
Chris was our wine specialist for the tasting. He was wonderful. He spent time telling us about each wine. He even offered us a few wines not on the tasting menu to try. Here is where we made our mistake...we scheduled our next tasting too close to this one. Chris was prepared to offer us some additional wines and we had to cut it short. We will not make this mistake again!
The grounds and home of Duckhorn Vineyards are beautiful. Next time we are in Napa Valley we will schedule another tasting and leave plenty of time to enjoy the great setting and conversation. Thank you!

Saved our best for last. After 3 days of tastings, what a way to end our trip before heading
home. Carlos may be new, but he has the knowledge and his helpfulness is only outshone by his happiness. Duckhorn now has a new wine club member for life!

We didn’t do the tasting simply because we are very familiar with excellent Duckhorn wines. Maybe next time we will do out to try their exclusives. We frequently buy Duckhorn Decoy reds as they are not too expensive but excellent nonetheless. However, they pride themselves with their exclusive and expensive Cabernets and this is what we would like to taste.
The Duckhorn estate is huge and they own several other wineries in the region (Paraduxx I’d one of them).
We loved their beautifully landscaped premises, the sitting area and the interior. Very happy we stopped by.

I had a great tasting experience at Duckhorn! My wife and I were seated outside on the terrace on an afternoon with beautiful weather. The terrace was quiet and there was some music in the background, but not enough to detract from the experience. If you want a relaxing experience, the terrace is a great place to sit. We enjoyed all of the wines we sampled but the real star of the show was Miguel.
Of the wineries we visited on this trip, our tasting at Duckhorn was at the top and that can be fully attributed to our experience with Miguel. Miguel is very cheery and it is obvious that he loves what he does. He was able to talk us through our tasting in an entertaining and informative fashion. Normally my wife and I prefer smaller wineries with more personal service so we weren’t expecting much from a winery as big as Duckhorn, but the atmosphere they have curated along with Miguel’s personalized attention really impressed us. If you want a good tasting experience, go to Duckhorn and get a tasting with Miguel and you will not be disappointed!

When in Napa one must visit the Duckhorn Winery. I am a big fan of Decoy and the tasting didn’t disappoint. Beautiful vineyard with a professional and knowledgeable staff.

What a great experience at Duckhorn! Laidback, inviting, relaxing and beautiful. Our host Miguel was perfect, super fun, no pressure, knowledgeable, cool and entertaining. We got to learn about Duckhorn and try some amazing wines we don't know about before. The venue was beautiful and very enjoyable, and the wines delicious!

Beautiful spot and fantastic wine! The grounds and atmosphere are unique from most of the other tasting that we did and it feels very much like a family-run boutique winery even though it is commercial/public. Our host Jenny was delightful - she was hospitable, knowledgeable and did not rush us whatsoever. After our tasting we were allowed to take a stroll through the courtyard area. Highly recommend!

This tasting experience was fantastic! The grounds are beautiful, and we were able to appreciate them from our table on the large wrap-around porch. Our server was knowledgeable and attentive, and the cheese plate was a perfect accompaniment for the delicious wine. It was a relaxed, wonderful experience all around.

Has anyone tried one of their more elite tastings? Worth it???

No we didn't try one of their elite or reserve tastings. What kind of wines do you like? If it's Zinfandels I would also highly recommend Rombauer. It's right up the road from there. Bring a box lunch and sit out under the trees and look out over the valley. Duckhorn does have some very good and expensive cabs too. Sit on the beautiful porch. You won't be sorry.

Hi, how long does the wine tasting last? Is it about an hour? We are limited on time so we would love to know how long it takes as it looks wonderful! Thank so much!

You can make it go quickly if you want - just tell them you have limited time.
