    The RSV Tasting Room

    To taste an RSV wine at home or in a restaurant is a good thing; however, to experience a flight of RSV wines, in the place they were made, can be a very enlightening experience.

    Find out why RSV was named Sunset magazine’s tasting room of the year and the Wine Spectator featured it as a must visit winery in Napa Valley. But don’t take their word for it, come see it yourself. Great wine is about good food and good people. You will find all that and more at RSV.

    Requests for tours are tentative until confirmed via email or phone. Your mobile phone number is important so we can contact you in the unlikely event that a change is necessary.

    Please call to book an appointment, or Explore the Tastings above to request reservations online.

    The era of wine as athletic event is over. RSV strongly believes it is only through the interplay of food and wine that the subtleties of both are revealed. However, it is more than just food and wine. It is the story of how agriculture, in balance with nature, informs everything RSV.

    RSV's "Farm to Table" experience begins with glass in hand and a nibble from the vineyard kitchen followed by a stroll through the kitchen garden. Here, the season’s offerings are explored, accompanied by a lively philosophical discussion of food and wine. A peek into the cellar and caves offer a brief discourse on winemaking; after which, a convivial gathering at the farm table furthers the conversation with an exploration of seasonal creations from the Vineyard Kitchen paired with a selection of RSV wines.

    The ingredients on the market board changes daily, weekly and seasonally and are either farmed on RSV's lands or sourced from local, organic producers. Vegetables and fruits from RSV's gardens appear side by side with salumi and artisan cheeses from local purveyors. Tastes of the day can include a selection of tartlets and other baked goods, fresh and preserved fruits and vegetables, cheeses, salumi (sometimes made with RSV wines), nuts, marinated olives with herbs from the garden and "of the moment" special treats. All goodies are created with certain RSV wines in mind; however, guests are encouraged to compare and contrast the wines with food and lend their own opinions.
