| | SusanB Oct 29, 2009 | 2004 Simba's Sinful Zinfandel - My husband and I have visited Napa, Santa Rosa, Calistoga and Sonoma. Graeser Winery is one of our favorite experiences and memories out of all our trips to the wine country. We tasted Simba's Sinful Zinfandel right out of the barrel and have been buying it ever since. It is THE BEST!!!! We also love Jack's Cab. The hospitality we experienced while visiting the winery was top notch. We will visit again next time we are in Calistoga. |
| | LindaS Sep 5, 2009 | I would really prefer to email you personally, but you don't have that on your site, evidently. We've been to Napa, Sonoma and areas around the two 5 times in the last 8 years. We stayed in Calistoga twice. We never heard of your winery and were never directed there by our innkeepers. I understand that you have Platypus Tours as a client. Well, that certainly is a good way to attract newcomers to your place, whether they buy or not. However, on Tripadvisor, it has been announced that you are using the practice of promising free wine to those who post glowing reviews of your place and your wine. btw- a $15 tasting fee is very high for a boutique winery! There are two honest reviewers who have explained that on tripadvisor. It might not be illegal, but it certainly is unscrupulous. These types of shady business dealings usually come back and bite you in the proverbial butt. Have a nice day! |
| | DonC Jul 16, 2009 | 2008 Succulence - It's what the name suggests. THE best after dinner wine I have ever tasted. You start experiencing this heavenly nectar about 6 inches away from your face. It's scent draws you in and then the taste takes you away. Then it lingers on the pallete reminding you that what you just experienced was real. If you drink just one dessert wine in your life let it be this one. |

Meet the owner which maked my tasting so much more personal.I joined the wine club 5 minutes later and took my first shipment back to Illinois with me! |
| | LindaB Feb 17, 2008 | 2002 Alex’s Ruff Red Table Wine - My friend & I visited in Oct 2007, what a great experience! To be able to speak with the Richard, ask the dumb questions, etc. Just incredible. Loved the grounds & the dogs too. We visited many wineries over the weekend, enjoyed yours the best - BY FAR! Thanks so much! |
| | JohnT Dec 31, 2007 | 2003 Two Dog Vineyard Merlot - There Two Dog Merlot is perfect! Loved the relaxed atmosphere and one on one with Richard Graeser the wine maker. We hiked to the top of the hill and enjoyed the sights and sounds of Napa County. The best winery on this entire trip! |
| | ShirleyC Dec 19, 2007 | 2002 Alex’s Ruff Red Table Wine - I love the Alex's Ruff red table Wine. Had a really great time visiting with Mr. Graeser. I am going to tell everyone about this place! The step back in time, is really true. Going to share my wine bottles with my office staff for the holidays! |
| | AlexS Dec 13, 2007 | 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon, Estate - The 2002 Cab Sauvignon was soooo nice! All the wines here are great, but I liked this one the best. I joined the wine club. Two bottles each quarter, not bad for great wine! Loved the old time feel of the place. Pictures from the 1800's, and beautiful views. I took lots of pictures. Everyone should enjoy such things! |
