Burgess — Attraction in Napa Valley AVA

We visited Burgess back in 2018 and it set the bar super high. This was the first spot we checked out in Napa, and could not have been happier with the result. The staff was amazing, the pours were very generous, and we learned so much about the process while enjoying a beautiful view of the mountainside. What makes this place so unique is that most of the Valley is incredibly flat, while these grapes are grown on a hillside, thus creating a unique taste and gorgeous property.

Fast forward to 2020, and quarantine hits us. I purchased 4 bottles of wine, and Steve Burgess was more than happy to do a virtual tasting with us (on a Saturday evening mind you).

Burgess with Joshua, promised to give you an unforgettable experience! Just don’t forget to take some bottles home to keep the memories...

Cindy was still there & we did another small tasting & scored on a 2nd bottle of 2013 Moutaineer red. WOW. Scored on their supple chardonnay as well & will b enjoying soon both of these gifts made on the elevated vineyards of Burgess. Hey, even Marne Burgess walked over to meet us as we stood outside, probably because she was wondering who was visiting so late in the day. Hey, when one gets the urge to drive up the mountain 2 days in a row, these people must need...
