We had a wonderful day wine tasting with Caesar. He brought us to small wineries we never heard of before. The wineries tasting rooms and views were incredible. The wineries really put a lot of money and effort in making the wine tasting experience amazing, water fountains, chandeliers and landscaping. The Jacuzzi wine tasting was excellent, the staff was so nice and told us the family history. Viansa winery was landscaping and buildings were done to make you feel like you were in Tuscany. Domaine Carneros had a beautiful tasting room and landscaping. The wine staff at Artesa were very accommodating since we got there late in the afternoon, they still let us do the full red wine tasting. Never felt rushed. The lunch location had excellent Italian food. We talked to the owner for a little while during lunch. Marcia April 2026

Caesar did a great job taking you to Napa and Sonoma, highly recommend this tour.
Caesar was a great tour guide, offering great insight into the wine regions we were going to be visiting. He was prompt and quite friendly, not stuffy ... as some guides can be. I recommend Caesar for any trip you're considering. Gary Dyer and Jeffrey Davies
