Our take

Brian Arden is a small, family-owned and operated winery. This experience lets you get to know the staff and feel like you are part of the family!

The food rivals that of the best Napa Valley restaurants. We’ve often been told it was the best meal our guests had during their stay in the Napa Valley.

The open kitchen setting is a unique experience. You get to interact with the chef and ask anything about his cooking techniques or even favorite Napa Valley experiences!

Tips

We produce over 10 varieties of wine. Take a look at our list and ask your host to try a specific variety that you are interested in if it is not on the tasting menu.

All food and wine is included in tour price and is more than enough for lunch.
