Starmont Wines At Merryvale

Great, delicious, very well made wines. Liked learning about the winery history and tour! Great and attentive tasting room service (thanks Chris)!

We had been to two wine tastings at other wineries in Calistoga. We decided to swing around to St. Helena where Merryvale's wine tasting room is located since we decided to take in another experience. While we didn't have any reservations, we could have a couple of glasses of wine at the main bar, which was very nice, as was the bartender who served us. We enjoyed the red and white we ordered, while taking up a couple of stools at the bar. The wine tasting room was spacious and rustic but polished due to the light woods used for the bar counter and gift shop area. There was a stoned cellar room for more private tastings. Overall, it was a good spot to enjoy some local wine by a winery out of Napa Valley, and very convenient if you are spending the day in downtown St. Helena.

What a fantastic and fun experience. Our reserve tasting was awesome! The winery is beautiful and classy our host was funny and a wealth of knowledge. We went into a walk in wine room that had some of their oldest vintages. I think I saw one from 1998! We will be back to try more cabs!

My friend and I came to Merryvale based on many good reviews, for a tasting and sat on the stunning outside patio. we even had front row seats to the wine train driving by. The wines and views were top notch. But, it was our wine educator, Patti, that made the visit so much more than your average tasting. She was so welcoming, engaging and very knowledgeable on the wine selections and the area and interesting facts on the history of the winery. We loved the silhouette Chardonnay and the Cabernet selections and joined the club. Do remember to ask for Patti.

I had an incredible tasting experience at Merryvale. Patti was delightful, knowledgeable, and very helpful. The wine was outstanding. I highly recommend this place!
