点评:We recently treated ourselves and friends to the VIP Wine Tasting & Pairing Experience at Davis Estates in Calistoga and it completely exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, the stunning estate, with its beautifully restored grounds, panoramic views of the Napa Valley, and Howard Backen-designed winery and caves, set the tone for a truly luxurious yet welcoming afternoon.
Our host, Alex, was exceptional. He made us feel like honored guests right away—warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the wines and the property. Alex guided us through a fascinating behind-the-scenes tour of the picturesque vineyards, the state-of-the-art winery, and the expansive 11,000-square-foot cave system. His stories brought the history, beautiful art, and winemaking process to life, and he answered every question with enthusiasm and expertise. Whether it was sharing insights into the Davis family’s vision or highlighting the artistry behind the wines, Alex elevated the entire experience.
The private seated tasting was the star of the show. We enjoyed their most revered reserve wines, including those crafted by Walter Leiva and the exclusive Phase V collection by Philippe Melka. Each pour was perfectly paired with a luxurious, multi-course menu from the culinary team—thoughtfully prepared dishes that complemented the wines beautifully and felt like fine dining in wine country. The pairings were creative, flavorful, and far beyond typical tasting bites. Everything from the ambiance in the private tasting area to the seamless flow of the experience felt personal and indulgent.
Davis Estates has nailed the perfect balance of elegance, warmth, and excellence. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to linger and definitely return. If you’re looking for a standout VIP experience in Napa Valley, book this one—and if you’re lucky enough to have Alex as your host, you’re in for a real treat.
Highly, highly recommended. Thank you, Alex and the entire Davis Estates team!

我们的接待员亚历克斯表现得极为出色。他让我们立刻感受到自己就是尊贵的客人——热情周到且博学多识。他真正热爱这些葡萄酒以及这片庄园。亚历克斯带领我们进行了一次引人入胜的幕后参观,带我们领略了风景如画的葡萄园、设备先进的酿酒厂,以及面积达11,000平方英尺的巨大酒窖。他的讲述让这片庄园的历史、精美的艺术品以及酿酒过程都栩栩如生;他总是以极大的热忱与专业知识来回答我们的每一个问题。无论是分享戴维斯家族的经营理念,还是阐述葡萄酒背后的艺术匠心……亚历克斯提升了整个体验的品质。
这场私人品酒会堪称整个活动的亮点。我们品尝到了他们最受推崇的珍藏级葡萄酒,包括由沃尔特·莱瓦酿制的佳酿,以及菲利普·梅尔卡亲自调配的限量版“Phase V”系列。每一款酒都搭配了由厨师团队精心准备的多道大餐——这些美味佳肴与葡萄酒相得益彰,让人仿佛置身于葡萄酒产区的高级餐厅中。这些搭配既富有创意又美味可口。这绝不是一次普通的品酒体验。从私人品酒区的氛围营造,到整个体验流程的顺畅自然,一切都显得格外贴心且奢华。
Davis Estates完美平衡了优雅、温馨与卓越品质。这里绝对是让人流连忘返、心甘情愿一再光临的绝佳去处。如果你想在纳帕谷获得一次无与伦比的VIP体验,那就选择这里吧——如果幸运的话,还能由Alex为您全程服务,那可真是莫大的享受啊。
强烈推荐!强烈推荐。谢谢Alex以及Davis Estates的全体团队!
