Our host was phenomenal! He was very accommodating and friendly. This was our first stop, and at the end of the day we all loved this place the most!
Superb experience, beautiful grounds, and Mike is wonderful! Bell Cellars came highly recommended by another tasting room as I love cabernet. Mike is incredibly knowledgeable and a pleasure to have explaining the wines and answering our questions about the area in general. He hung out with us at our table right next to the vineyard - gorgeous, fun, and learned so much!
This is by far the best and the most educational wine tasting experience we had. I have been here twice in different groups and more than satisfied both times. The host carefully assessed what we know through casual conversations and gave tours about exactly what we wanted to know. The host (Marc, by the way, was very knowledgeable about wine making in the entire Napa valley) even briefly took us to the vineyard to show how the grapes were ready to get harvested. How seriously this winery cares about different clones of Cabernet Sauvignon and wine making in this area in general is definitely worth hearing about!!!
Been club members for several years - love these wines and such great value - in a world where wine prices have gotten a little crazy.
Fantastic little gem in the heart of Napa Valley! Small production wine presented by knowledgeable and entertaining staff on a gorgeous patio that will transport you to somewhere in Tuscany. Make a reservation there today!
Excellent winery and the nicest / most knowledgeable winemaker!
We came to this winery as the first stop on a tour and it was our favorite wine of all the ones we visited. Even our driver, Jim, when I fretted about buying wine at our first stop told me that it was the place I should def. spend my money. The man who did the tastings was super knowledgeable and we really enjoyed all we learned about the regions and varieties of grapes. Ill be back here again for sure!
We had an amazing time visiting Bell Wine Cellars. The wines were great and Chen, or host, was amazing! We loved the wines and will be back again.
This is a beautiful winery with arguably some of the best wines in Napa. From the time we arrived to the time we left, Jan treated us like royalty. He was fun and knowledgeable as he walked us through the process. We learned a lot and enjoyed the whole experience. And the wines! Oh the wines! They were probably the best wines Ive ever had. Unfortunately, this was also the very first Napa winery I ever visited so the rest needed to live up to this one. A difficult task indeed. I would go back to Napa just to visit Bell Wine Cellars again! Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience here. I forget the name of our host, but he had only been at the winery for about a week. After visiting maybe 50 Napa wineries, I can say our host gave us the most useful and accessible information for our knowledge level that I’ve ever experienced. The wine was great and it was a super personal experience. I’d go back in a heartbeat.
Great tasting experience, catered to our tastes. Nice, genuine people, down to earth, made you feel like family.
I visited Bell Wine Cellars with some co-workers and we had a wonderful experience. In addition to the wine being delicious, our Guest Relations Ambassador, John Helfrick, was amazing! He gave us a great tour and was very knowledgeable about the winery, wine making and of course all of the wine we were trying. He made us laugh and made sure we had a great time. It was like wine tasting with a friend rather than an employee. He made our experience at Bell very memorable, and I highly recommend all visitors ask for him when visiting. For great wine and a great wine tasting experience, I highly recommend John and Bell Wine Cellars.
Ask for Victoria she was fabulous! I loved this winery. Very elegant wines, beautiful flavor and excellent atmosphere. I really enjoyed the educational aspect of all of the wines we tried and the history of the winery was so neat. Thank you Victoria!! Highly recommend this winery.
Bell was the last winery we visited on our Napa trip, but I am sure we will be back. The tasting with John was wonderful! He was very knowledgable, friendly, and answered all of our questions. We truly enjoyed our time with John and having the tasting outside next to the vines. Excellent wine. We joined the club, ordered some extra bottles and are looking forward to cracking open a bottle in our first of many shipments! Cant wait to return and visit again. Truly felt at home. 5 stars!
Great location great wines. Very accommodating staff.
Interesting and knowledgeable guide, very good wines. Worth a visit.
After 3 days of wine tasting and 12 wineries, this is definitely a must-see. Small Winery with fantastic wines a great service.
The best kept secret in Napa. They make some of the finest wine in the region. All of the staff are welcoming and knowledgeable.
Such an awesome personal experience! From the second we stepped out of our car, Jan Met us with a sparkling wine. Learned so much and enjoyed the beautiful grounds! Recommend !
Best Wine tasting experience during our trip to Napa, highly recommend
Absolutely amazing. This was the first winery that my family and I visited. After going to a few others, it was a pleasure to start out and have such a high expectation. We had the wine tasting experience with four different wines, cheese and crackers. The best part was the employee. He was extremely knowledgeable, was not pushy like some other wineries were, and even let us see some vats of how they made it. Overall, this is the one you visit after the others just for experience.
We attended the “Grape to Glass” tour here - it was such an enjoyable experience! It starts out with a walk in the vineyard, an overview of the processing machinery, the barrel room, and then a tasting. They pair various red wines (the Clone 6 is amazing!) with delicious, high quality cheeses. The winery employee was super knowledgeable and so nice. Highly recommend for anyone who is interested in learning more about the wine making process and tasting some great wine!
We finally were able to visit. Glad we did! Fantastic wines and John was great. Thanks for the great tour and wine.
Love Bell Wine. Wonderful atmosphere and service. Darion was amazing. Learned a lot!
Great Experience, beautifully lovingly-crafted wines. Darren is an expert connoisseur and awesome teacher. A credit to the brand. Learned more from him in 1 hour than several Vineyard tours in France.
We had a fun time at the bell winery with John. It was our first wine tour so we dont have a base to compare to, but it was a nice mix of picturesque views, winery tour, and tasting session. The wines were good and the tour was fun.
Phenomenal. Great wines, great people. We had a very relaxed and informative tour. Our favorite out of the 7 wineries visited this week.
Amazing place, people, and wine. I strongly recommend this place to you. God Bless.
Very good, I recommend this winery if you are ever in Napa area.
Wonderful experience. Staff is knowledgeable and welcoming. Make an appointment and enjoy the experience.
I had a great wine tasting experience at Bell Wine Cellars. Great staff and even better wine!
Great place !!! The staff was so friendly. We went there for the cheese pairing and it was fabulous. They have bocce courts and a great outdoor area!
I found this to be a top level tasting comprising exceptional wines, a visit to the barrel room and vineyard. Melanie was an authority on Bell wines and the evolution of winemaking in the Napa. This is a must visit winery for lovers of cabernet savignon - nirvana!
Small quaint operation, friendly knowledgable staff, good wines, and great cheese pairings. Great way to start your tour through Napa
Great wine and amazing people.
Small but great wine and staff for a great visit
Excellent wine, incredible staff.

Best Cabernet in Napa
