The architectural brilliance of mid-evil Europe along with the history is a fascinating time period that holds great interest to me. When there is a winery with a castle that represents the time period I am immediately drawn to it for the look on the outside and inside with the feel for it on the inside. At Castello di Amorosa venturing into the tasting room I feel like this is how it was back in those times. A dark, dimly lit, with a dank like quality just feels special to me. Their wines match the quality and effort put into the castle with quality and care you would expect upon seeing the winery at the bottom of the hill. Their rosé had this light pomegranate raspberry flavor while the zinfandel had complex notes of black current fruit. Their Merlot was an amazing flavor with its notes of cherry, chocolate, and wood from the barrels. Finally the Riesling had excellent notes of peach and apricot flavors finishing nicely with a sweet mixture of both. Parts of Castello di Amorosa were destroyed in the California wild fires of 2020 but the castle remains in tact. As of this writing they are determined to forge ahead and rebuild was lost. If you are in the area you should give them a try as the great wine combined with the castle structure offers a one of a kind wine tasting experience. Kids are welcomed if accompanied by some 21 or over. $$-$$$

What a fun experience! Felt like we were in a different time and country! We did a tasting with Cyndi and she was so attentive and great at making recommendations based on our tastes. We were celebrating my daughter’s 21st birthday and she made her feel extra special.

I had read some reviews that were negative. Some calling it 'A Disneyland Atmoshere' But the wines we were served for the basic Seated Tasting were all very good to Great!! We visited several other traditional wineries that served lesser quality wines for their basic tastings! We did not feel rushed either (We were there on a Friday)

While visiting Napa Valley, we made a reservation for this Castle and it was Amazing. Once the tour guide (Christopher) took us all over the Castle, he took us to the Gift shop and for our scheduled tastings of their wines, WOW!! The tasting in the gift shop is the end of the tour but shop all you want, we had several bottles mailed to our home. You can't go wrong getting this tour, seeing the towers, catapalt, barrels galore, dungeon, more barrels, bottles and more barrels.....I spent time in Sicily and this reminded me of their castles. The Views of the surrounding valley is Amazing....

We had a great time on our wine tour with Jose. He was very knowledgeable, easy to talk to. He was able to recommend places to eat around town. The castle was terrific, and being able to walk around was great. Their wine is very good as well. Was our first winery in Napa and did not disappoint and set the bar high!

This was the first vineyard we visited on our recent trip to Napa and it did NOT disappoint. We did the self guided tour and tasting since we had a car service and were tight on time. The wines were amazing, we got to pick which we each wanted to try and the grounds and castle were really something special. If you don’t do a guided tour, still go and check out the view from the towers, amazing! Enrico was our host and he was wonderful! Would definitely visit again!

We visited with our two children (12 and 9 year olds). What a great experience! Our host, Rusty, was phenomenal. Knowledgeable, kind, funny and truly catered to us AND our children. Would go for another tasting without hesitation.

Visiting the area celebrating three birthdays. This winery was fantastic and our host Lorenzo from Italy was amazing! The wines were superb. We took a tour of the castle afterwards and the views were incredible. Great time was had by all!

Love this winery, the wine and the tour. Chris, our tourguide, was so much fun. He told us lots of great stories and knew so much about the winery. The Diamond Mountain tour is so worth the price. If you are going to do any tour, do this one. We added the chocolate upgrade- delish!

If you are looking for a unique tour of a replica of a castle then this is the place. We paid up for the guided tour and cheese pairing. This winery is commercialized so lots of people. I would recommend the tour however we did not like the wine.
