We like Cakebread's Cabs. For $60-$70 a bottle, they make a great Cab. Our wine pourer was Don. He was a fun guy and a wealth of information. He even admitted that the 2010 vintages he was pouring should be poured in 5 more years; however, due to demand, they are pouring them now. They taste good now, so I... More

Cakebread is obviously a more mass-market winery; as such, you should expect that some of their wines are just mediocre. We found this to be the case: a few that we tasted were average, a few just bad, and a couple were quite good. One of their best, which you have to ask to try, is called "dancing bear", if... More

We had a group (50 people) dinner at Cakebread in March and the experience was outstanding! The four-course dinner was paired with amazing wines and the food offerings were fresh, imaginative and absolutely incredible. The staff at Cakebread Cellars definitely understand hospitality and service, turning what could have been just another dinner into a dining experience. I would not hesitate... More

Impersonal Tour Guides to start your visit is big mistake. The wines are average at best. Don't stop. You'll thank me later.

Cakebread makes some of the most perfect wines out there. At the tasting my friend and I had the chance to try seven different wines the vineyard produces, including the Dancing Bear and Benchland Cabernets. All of the staff was friendly and incredibly enthusiastic to invite everyone in to try the wine. Barbara was our pourer and she was full... More

I visited this winery once about 7 years ago and had a great time. I just revisited this place again this weekend when I had some clients in town and wanted to show them around Napa Valley. Everything was superb. We had William as our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to and ask questions... More

I love Cakebread wine, so I was really excited to check out the winery while in Napa. I was sure to call ahead and made the necessary appt for a tasting. Overall, the tasting "tour" through the garden was nothing special. It was outside and you walked from station to station (which were folding tables in various locations on the... More

I LOVE Cakebread wine, so when my friends and my husband and I decided to take a trip to Napa, it was the first place that came to my mind to tour. I was so very excited and hyped the wine to my friends. We arrived to our select tasting about 15 minutes early, but were in no rush. The... More

We did not do a long comprehensive tour here, but just a tasting of their current wines with a little information on each. It is a lovely vineyard and must not be missed for people who love Chardonnay.
