Napa Valley & Sonoma Wineries with the Best Views

There is nothing better than drinking a glass of fantastic wine as you watch the sunset from your home. Life just seems inherently better when sipping on your favorite glass of wine.  However, that feeling is unmatched by the serenity and sense of belonging you will feel while drinking the same glass of wine at the beautiful winery where it was made.

Many Napa and Sonoma wineries offer the chance for enthusiasts to try their artisan, premium, and signature wines right at the premises and take a tour of the cellar. Wineries in Napa are situated near historic chateaus, lush estates, and even a Tuscan castle. At California Wine Tours we recommend letting our team plan your perfect outing, ensuring you can enjoy the best views with the finest wine. You can schedule a wine tour for a romantic getaway with your partner, a fun and adventurous bachelor/ bachelorette party, or a friends’ reunion.

To help you decide, we have compiled the top wineries with the best views in Napa and Sonoma Valley.


Domaine Carneros

Location: 1240 Duhig Rd, Napa, CA 9559, United States

Domaine Carneros is a singular winery best known as a small grower-producer of méthode traditionelle sparkling wine, Pinot Noir, estate vineyards, and a breathtakingly beautiful château. All of the wines proudly hail from the Carneros appellation, and 100% of the fruit comes from their six estate vineyards comprising 400 acres. As anyone who has driven between Napa and Sonoma can tell you, the Domaine Carneros château is a stunning regional landmark.

At California Wine Tours we recommend the Art of Sabrage where your host will share the history, legends, and technique of this flamboyant practice that dates back to the age of Napoleon then provide a dramatic demonstration while taking in an abundant selection of local artisan delights from Journeyman Meats, Cowgirl Creamery, and Tsar Nicolai Caviar has been carefully curated to pair beautifully with méthode traditionelle sparkling wines.

 


Artesa Vineyards & Winery

Location: 1345 Henry Rd, Napa, CA

If you don’t get excited by rustic wineries, Artesa Vineyards & Winery may be more your style. Artesa is an ultra-hip and innovative winery with a stunning geometric architecture built into the hillside. As if the view isn’t spectacular enough, Artesa’s high-quality collection of red, white, rose, and sparkling wine will surely wow you. There are three types of wine-tasting experiences you can indulge in depending on your preference and the experience you are looking for. The Artisanal is a seated experience that offers you the chance to try six different wines. You can even go on a complete estate tour as you enjoy the wine-tasting experience and the beautiful scenery around you. We at CWT recommed visiting anytime but we truly enjoy the fall season when the vineyards are full of yellow and bright orange leaves.


Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars

Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars has a unique desert aesthetic paired with one of the most beautiful and historic vineyards in Napa. You will be able to see sweeping mountain views from every terrace and room of the estate.

Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars is renowned for its estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignons – Cask 23, SLV, FAY and Artemis. These wines have become some of the most highly regarded and collected wines in the world.


Viansa Sonoma Winery

Viansa Sonoma Winery was established in 1990 to celebrate the family’s Italian heritage. The winery grows several varietals of grapes which include Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon. When you visit the winery for a tasting, you will be seated in the tasting room or the upper lawn of the estate, which is situated on a hilltop and offers beautiful views across the valley. You can look over the stretching wineries of the valley and may even make out the mountain silhouette in the distance. We recommend enjoying the vistas with splendid wine, sandwiches, soups, or a charcuterie board.
