V. Sattui Winery Review

10 out of 10 The wine was amazing, friendly staff and wonderful atmosphere. I will definitely come back!

V. Sattui knows how to treat the public right. The wine is good and the alcohol keeps flowing. It seems as if every time I wander into this space everyone is having a great time and smiling. It's not a stuck-up Napa Valley winery. It's more of a laid-back we have BBQs some weekends, come in and know my name type of place.

I came in last weekend and my cell phone was almost dead - they offered to plug it in and watch over it while we ate. We bought a bottle and they corked it for us, and gave us two glasses! We sat out on one of their picnic tables and enjoyed the sunshine and good east they had to offer. It's truly a one-stop-winery-shoppe.

See for yourself. You'll have a new favorite winery.

We went on our first anniversary. I picked the spot due to my family worked there in the past. The location was beautiful, but I will never go back. I appreciate still being able to due to being 15 min late due to traffic but the customer service was bad. Jason or Justin our server at first was nice but got extremely rude to me, pushed a wine that my husband got but I did not want on me then got mad when I didn't like it and barely poured me ANY of my last taste test. I don't pick the same as my husband nor should I be forced to I do not care if it mixed well or not. I pay for the tasting I choose what I want. Period. It is also way over charged for what you get, 35 a person for very little wine that you don't even feel is NOT worth it. We will not be back and very very upset and disappointed in this winery

Amazing ambience. But wine was not that great. Go for the atmosphere and cheeses, bring better wine with you .

As former members, we showed up today expecting to show our family in town a good experience. I was FLOORED at how terrible our marketplace experience was with Justin. He was not welcoming at all, he didn t tell us anything about the wines, I asked between the roses and he said this one is just better. You need friendly people who are ready to service guests (nicely) who are there to taste and this was by far just terrible. I ll think twice about heading back.

Great service in the tasting room, and crowd pleasing wines. We went on a Thursday in the off season and there was a huge line. We skipped right to the front with our reservation, highly recommend making one. Gorgeous place to wander around and grab lunch.

Great experience! Very laid back, but lively atmosphere. We were served by Big Ed who was the friendliest tasting guide we could have hoped for! No pressure for the upsell and you felt free to hang around the premise at your leisure. Loved the inclusive, homey feel of the winery... You felt like you didn't have to buy a case of wine to get good service.

Beautiful grounds. Wonderful gift shop. A little crowded for my taste, but definately a good stop.

Very cool experience in Napa Valley. You do the tasting and then if you want you can buy cheeses, cold cuts and handmade dishes to consume in the garden. Excellent cost benefit

One of my favorite winerys to visit. You can buy cheese and meat or sandwiches and sit on the lawn. Beautiful place, grest wine, fabulous all around!!

First winery visited during my girlfriend's and my birthday getaway in Napa, 4 years ago. Still our favorite today, alongside Castello Di Amorosa (Calistoga). Wonderful wines and deli items. Sunday picnics are quite pleasant during the sunny season.

Place to die submerged in wine, cheese and cold cuts ... All of the highest quality. There was no time to enjoy the products and facilities ... Mandatory stop if you go to San Francisco. It's 1h40 in Napa Valley, which is nothing when you get to enjoy it. I have to come back.

Beautiful wedding venue. Elegant and romantic. Excellent service.

Great food, it's on the expensive side and can take a while but worth it. Very crowded around noon on a Friday, took 25 mins to place a food order. Tasting was okay, wines were decent but not worth what they were asking at all.. it's a warning sign to me if the wine is only sold at the location and no where else.. you don't let society judge your wines worth, in my opinion... Tasting took 45+mins for 5 wines due to how crowded it was, really dampered the day since we spent so much time here vs other places.

Though the wines were pretty good, this place feels very commercial and doesn't have the vineyard feeling at all. More like a grocery store/deli/wine store. While tasting wine, usually vineyards offer a cup of water, or breadsticks or something to nuturialize the taste or keep you hydrated. Here everything was available for sale. The staff during wine tasting didn't seem proud of thier wines, just doing thier job, pouring and moving on. Questions were answered by brochures and papers showing the prices. A bit disappointing.

Wines ok, but fruitflies are everywhere in the main tasting room and no one seems to care ...

Over crowded winery that sells wine, cheese, oils, etc. They have a picnic area out front that is pleasant enough. We were there on a Friday afternoon in the fall and it was overcrowded. The experience is not that relaxing though the selection of items is nice if you need some snacks.

Love it even more that they're enforcing not bringing in own food and beverages. This isn't a park! Not as crowded makes it a very enjoyable experience. Wine is delicious.

One of the best wineries in the world. Be sure not to miss the cheese variety. Easy to carry home

Great place for enjoying good wines and great food. Comforting environment with big, shady oaks. Try the pizza and Gelato -- super good, which is not surprising considering the chef is from Medissimo, Italy and consistently holds a Michelin star.

Terrible customer service. I called before making a reservation and asked how long before my reservation I could get a full refund. The lady assisting me told me anytime before 24 hours from the time of my reservation. So, I went ahead and booked. 27 hours before my reservation I called and tried to get a full refund for two people in our party that couldn't make it and they said they have a 48 hour cancelation policy. They didn't let me get a full refund and the lady assisting me said she could do NOTHING to help. She didn't apologize for the mistake of her team for giving me mis-information and didn't even acknowledge the mistake in the first place. I feel very cheated by their mistake and would double check with multiple team members if you're considering making plans to visit this winery to avoid this mess.

I absolutely love V. Sattui's Gamay Rouge, Dry Resieling, cheeses! I can go on and on!! Best winery ever!!

This is one of my favorite wineries in Napa Valley - it is particularly good for the uninitiated :) and my go-to spot to take family and friends for their first time in Napa Valley. I still remember my first time here when we picnic'd while soaking up the sun and basking in their beautiful picnic area. I loved learning about all of their different wines and they tend to be a little more generous than the number of tastings that is stated on the tasting menu. It's a bit more popular than other wineries and not a place if you're looking for quiet and intimate.

Great experience! Luis was our bartender and he was so warm and made us very comfortable. He was very knowledgeable about the wines and super sweet. The tasting room had some great food and everyone there was having a great time and it was like drinking at your local bar. Would definitely go back!

Gotta stop at this place. Located on the way to all other wineries. Beautiful grounds, great selection of wine, cheese and other foods. They're offering private and group tasting, and marketplace for individual enjoyment. It's similar setup to "Eataly" if you are familiar. We really enjoyed this wintery.

Wine is good and so is service. Way too busy and commercial for us. Outside market is cool tho.

Great place!!!!! Nice deli with so many options (vegan, gluten free and vegetarian included) and you can relax in the park with your food and wine. Lovely atmosphere and nice park

Our favorite wine in the Napa valley tastings we did. Deli was great too

The Stefano and Marc food and wine tasting was absolutely amazing!

Loved this place. Great place for a picnic lunch. Not to worry they have all the things needed to purchase for the picnic including the wine which was superb. You diffidently need to put this place on your must see list.

Lovely lovely place to go and do wine tasting or just hang out on the lawn. They even barbecue and their food is amazing

Love this place for lunch but they put mayo on all their sandwiches really need option to get it without mayo just out it at the end?

Looks like they have some nice products but EXTREMELY crowded

Good food, no restrooms, long lines, Disneyland of Napa. Unsure how they are up to code.

Amazing staff, awesome wines, summer picnic spot second to none.

Very tasty sandwiches, we would be well advised for white wine. Unfortunately a bit overflowing, as it is directly compared to the chain Dean and Deluca lies.

Exellent combination food and beverage, exellent quality, good service.

Amazing pesto penne and prociutto pannini. Wines were very good. Museum was interesting.

Great wine. Great cheese. Great BBQ. Great lawn. Great staff. Great experience. Not the best place for tasting though. It's too crowded at the tasting counter. Just buy a bottle.

Very beautiful winery. It was easy to find and there was plenty of parking. We visited unfortunately on a cloudy and rainy day but I could tell that this place would be great outside on a sunny day. There's plenty of benches and seating outside if you were to grab a lunch. Wine tasting was $15 per person and you could try 5 wines. We ended up buying a couple bottles along with some deli meat and cheeses. Overall it was a pleasant experience.

A family run business that dates back to the late 1800's. The wines here are wonderful, but you can only get them at the winery as they do not sell them anywhere except at V. Sattui. This is the most visited winery, so come early or during the week on off hours. There's no outside food allowed, so their onsite deli will have everything you'd want for a picnic on their grounds.

Was very crowded when we visited so the wine tasting wasn't that great. Selection of whites were amazing though. The restaurant was good (definitely recommend the ribs and tiramisu).

This place was fantastic for both wine lovers and non-drinkers like myself. At the end of the wine tour I pretty much had an entire bottle of their crafted grape juice to myself and it was hands down the best juice I've ever had. Our crew wound up buying three bottles to go. The tour guide Robert was elaborate and knowledgeable on our tour and during the tasting. Highly recommend.

Brother company of Castella do Amorosa. Great central location and market puts food and wine in harmony

Very good parking, nice outdoor and indoor settings. Good selection too

Definitely one of the best wineries I visited in Napa! Big Ed was a great tasting pourer. They were one of the few wineries that had cheese and bread that you could enjoy for lunch. So that is highly recommended!

Always wonderful wine. A little different during COVID-19 situations, but still good.

Perfect place for wine sampling. First time enjoying a glass of wine and ill be back.

As a proud member never have had a dissapointement in 30 years. Member for life, thank you V. Sitting!

We visited the winery several years ago and really enjoyed the experience . We purchased several bottles of wine. Yesterday was Father's Day and we selected one of the bottles to go with a t-bone steak dinner. It was a 2005 Sattui Family Red. It was perfect in every way! Time to go back and restock.

Scenic winery with tours and a shop. Unfortunately our wine tasting was not as advertised so I would not recommend.

Awesome Madeira! And a good deli and a nice picnic area outside,

Deli, bbq and wine. Can't beat that! The wine is super good!

We were on a celebration trip and stopped at V. Sattui at the end of day. Bart our tasting guide was very helpful and accommodating. He was able to recommend both dry and sweet wines since we had different tastes. If more time we would have sat at the picnic area for wine and cheese.

Not your average winery! Crazy selection of fine cheeses from around the world,and a great deli too! Definitely worth a visit.

Great food inside (deli, etc.) and outside BBQ. Prices were ok. The grounds are nice, with space for kids to run around, and the staff is very friendly. Parking is free, too. Highly recommended. :-)

Nice and relaxing winery, there's green space you can do a little picnic especially when the sun's out! The wine shop is cute. Worth a visit!

This nice winery offers guest not only wine but also gorgeous picnic area, food, and lots of side dish for Wine. View around picnic area is amazing.

Great place to tast wine and spend a day. Had a picnic. Family place

Great option for food with your wine as they have an amazing deli and sizeable picnic grounds. Unfortunately this does attract an abundance of tourists so it s a bit manic inside.

Worked well for us as a lunch stop

I would highly recommend V. Sattui Winery! The view and ambience was amazing and the wine was very delicious! But, what sets this winery apart from others is how friendly and accommodating all of the staff were! We felt so taken care of and appreciated! The service was exceptional! :)

Great destination - picnic tables, grass, sunshine, deli, ready made sandwiches, cheeses, wines... How can you go wrong? They even host barbecues! Only negative is lack of restrooms for how crowded this place gets on a sunny day.

Great selection of wine and great area for picnics. Full.service deli as well. Checkin w yelp and get two for one tasting is an added bonus

Excellent US wine farm experience. We opted to use their market place and enjoy the tastings as well as a picnic on their grounds. Busy but still well organised. As with all things, go early to avoid the worst of the crowds. Easy drive from San Francisco

This is a staple for every Napa visit. It's good for groups and families. They've got a deli with a mean cheese selection, cheap bread, and sprawling grounds with picnic tables to handle the crowds. The atmosphere is the perfect combination of elegance and relaxation which makes for a comfortable, low-key, non-pretentious Napa experience.

Luis the person conducting our tasting was super knowledgeable, friendly and a nice person. Tried lots of different varieties of the wine..Most of it is reasonably priced also..

My boyfriend and I visited and did the Marketplace tasting. $20 per person and you get 5 samples of wine. Would highly recommend trying the Madeira if you go. They also have a wine cellar open to the public, which you can go check out on your own. One of the cheaper tastings that we visited but loved all the wine. Would definitely visit again.

We thought the wine here was the best of the handful of places we stopped on our visit. It's a great place for families and people who aren't serious wine connoisseurs. We enjoyed sitting outside and eating our BBQ, drinking wine, and enjoying the weather.

Wine and food lover, had a super disappointing experience at this establishment. With all the options you have in this area I wouldn't waste your time stopping here. Great on paper, very disappointing in reality. If you want to avoid wasting your time and money drive right on past this establishment.

Overpriced. Food is ridiculously expensive. I tried the BBQ ribs and they were too tough and way too much.

Terrific experience. Wine tasting was superb as all wines tasted. Domenico the sommelier has been very welcoming and so knowledgeable. We all found a piece of Tuscany here. Thank you.

3.5 stars.don't care much for the wine here but nice place to eat and enjoy patio.deli inside and bbq outside to satisfy your hunger. Wife enjoys the white wines here. People really enjoy the ambience and appearance of this place though.Usually crowded on weekends.

After visiting (and tasting) at a handful of locations in the Napa valley, can say that V Sattui is one of the best in terms of value and variety. Taste ANY 5 wines, from their wide array of whites, reds and dessert for just 15$. If you are into dessert wines, they have some of the best we have tasted. While their MADEIRA is truly wine of the gods, their Angelica and 2014 Muscat were stunning too. (The madeira has blends which are decades old and the angelica is aged for several years too. So they don't carry a year tag unless anniversary edition is picked). We left with a shipment for 6 wines. Thumbs up!

Great winery, knowledgeable staff, and a great selection in the shop, including awesome cheese and snacks to enjoy in their picnic area.

This place is pretty cool. The tasting is the way to go, sit and try all sorts of wine and take in the awesome interior. Lots of helpful staff and things to buy $$$. From personal experience go to the food area before your tasting or you ll have no money left but lots of snacks!

Great wines my wife and have been going there since 1977 . I buy future's on cab and pinot's . The zin's various old vine etc. We have picnics and go to many events,.

Lovely winery with beautiful yard and cozy atmosphere where food and ingredients also available

TIP: If you want to experience V.Sattui it's best to come right when it opens or right before it closes because in between it is super crowded and it isn't much of a delight when there is a ton of people and long wait for everything (wine tasting, deli, BBQ, etc.) COME EARLY if possible.

Now since I got that out of the way I have to say I completely adore this place!!! The first time I came Gabe took great care of me and friends. The second time I came it was a coincidence Gabe was my host again and this time really shined with his knowledge and keen sense on recommending great wine. More than the Gabe being awesome, the wine was something to think about. When I tried their Madiera I thought about that wine once a day until I came back to Sattui the second time around and it was still amazing the second time around. If you check in on Yelp, you get a two-for-one tasting for $15.

Their deli and BBQ is on the pricey side but it is completely worth the money because everything was filled with flavor. The only thing I have to slightly complain about was their desserts. I tried the tiramisu and chocolate chip whoopie pie which did not satisfy my sweet tooth. The tiramisu was soaked a little too much in some liqueur and the whoopie pie tasted too processed.

I do recommend getting artichoke cream cheese dip, their chicken pesto sandwich, and their crab cakes. Their mustard shrimp had a hint of horseradish which completely threw me for a loop; it was okay.

I love V.Sattui so much I will be getting a membership soon since it is very worth it and I like to receive complimentary tastings. I would have gotten one sooner but I can't afford having more than wine membership at a time.

V.Sattui is a great winery to visit and it sets the bar high for other wineries in the area. It's a great place to enjoy Napa at its best! ^___^

Always, a first-class experience! Tom Davies and staff are exceptional! The deli, the cheese selection and food truck and woodfired pizzas, make this a must see!!!

They have an amazing tomatoes and mozzarella salad. The spicy Italian sandwich is so good too. I feel like the spiciness came from black pepper more than anything, it's very mild. I loved it!!! You gota try this place. It's perfect for a quick stop in the morning so you can grab food to go.

I don't normally write reviews; however, my HORRENDOUS experience at V. Sattui warrants a review:

I recently visited the winery and purchased a relatively expensive bottle, which happened to be damaged when purchased.

Upon arriving at home, the bottle seal was cracked. I emailed and phoned the winery numerous times, but they were giving me the run around.

Overall, terrible customer service - employees were beyond unhelpful and rude, especially Tara Eaton. Will never step foot at this winery ever again.

The winery was beautiful!! We rented ebikes and they give you 2 for 1 wine tastings. And the best part is you can pick the 5 wines you want to try from a menu of 12 options.
