Our tour through the wine cellars was wonderful. The guide was very informative and allowed us to 'taste test' varietals that had been aged in different types of barrels, explaining the wine-making process and Del Dotto's expertise along the way. Our tour guide stayed with us after the tour to answer everyone's questions and supply some much-needed pizza. Great experience overall!

Took my best friend here and this tour is all barrel tasting! You get to taste some exclusive wine and also get an amazing educational tour to go with it. Our tour guide was Alex and he was super personable, funny and most importantly, knowledgeable about the wine. This is great for a first-timer, a regular or a resident of Napa.

This is my third experience and first for the 4 friends I hosted to the Cave tour & tasting. Chris our tour guide and the winery staff NEVER disappoint and impress with friendly helpful enology knowledge not pretentiousness. The food at the end of the tour was a nice bonus. We will definitely recommend to colleagues and friends and return. Well done Chris. You're the Best!!!

We chose the NAPA location due to the historic caves. It was the best tour we took that week. beatiful location and, more importantly, excellent wine and our guide was the best (Brian). Unfortunately my price point for wine just went up after visiting the Napa valley. But, the wine is sooo good.

I would recommend Del Dotto to anyone and everyone that will listen. I always have! The tour guides are all very knowledgable and have a great sense of humor. I love that snacks (such as pizzas, panini, a charcuterie platter, and chocolate) are provided at the end of the tour. I am not sure they do that with every tour, so I would check. However, every tour I've been on did. Beautiful, & romantic.

The hospitality started with a warm welcome and a glass of wine. Loved the personal tour with a very knowledgeable guide. Great insight into how barrels influence the wine - particularly the side by side wine/barrel comparison. Small bites and pizza went with the excellent wine. Will definitely be back and recommend to friends, family and my boss! Thanks.

The Del Dotto Napa Historic Winery and Tasting Room was an amazing experience, which anyone who has never done a wine cave tour, should make the time to do so! Our wine cave "tour guide" Doug lead us done the wine path, sharing information about how the soil, wine barrel toasting, grapes and other things all influence the wine. He did an awesome job of immersing us into the world of wine!
