We had a lovely tasting with Laura here! She is very sweet and has a great story to tell about the vineyard and winery! I would definitely recommend making a reservation as it is a small operation. We were fortunate enough to walk in and she so graciously hosted us!
We were really looking forward to our visit to Laura Michael wines based on the reviews but Laura was not our host as we had hoped.
I am not sure what the lady’s name was as she did not tell us. We were offered indoor or outdoor seating and chose the latter, it is a lovely setting. For the tasting we were given a good amount of wines to taste but we had one white and the rest were red, more variation would have been preferable.
Having said that we did really like most of the wines. We learnt a lot of interesting facts about wine and it’s the only vineyard we’ve been to that we were provided with fresh glasses for different wines which was a big bonus point from us! If we were being really honest we didn’t feel we could relax as much as other wine tastings we’ve been to as our host sat with us the whole time, she was a lovely lady but it just felt a little awkward at times making conversation. We walked up to the vineyard and asked if we could have a little walk around to see more but were told only the owner’s dogs can walk around. I’ve seen photos of visitors stood at the top previously so not sure why we couldn’t. I really hope my review doesn’t offend because everyone was pleasant but it’s just my honest review of my own experience.
One of the best winery experiences we’ve had in Napa! Currently part of the wine club, Laura is very personable and friendly, took her time explaining what makes them unique. Went first time in 2015 and are still fans! Love the Bentley!!
The owners are so sweet and wonderful. The wines here are the best we tasted on our trip. (We visited about 10 places). HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
This is the best kept secret in the Napa valley, hands down.
