This place had over 20 varietals... the wine maker has done an exceptional job at blending .... Angie poured these awesome wines for us and was so informative as well as funny! She had the best personality! we wanted to buy a bottle and just stay and hang out with her!!! experience is just as important as the quality of wine!

What can I say about this place. Pure unadulterated magic. Angie Angie Angie. You must get a raise. A bonus. Your own standup? SOMETHING.I brought my group of 12 the day after my husband and I got married in city hall. It's hard to find a spot for big groups but saddleback delivered. The second there were chirps of complaints about the cold, Angie had us boozing and laughing our way through, honestly, some fabulous reserves. We feel so lucky we got to spend an afternoon together. My husband and I will cherish these memories for years to come.Salmon.

Great tasting experience. Craig was a superb host and we really enjoyed our visit. Very unpretentious and welcoming. Can't wait to be back.

Had a great experience here with a group of 10. Very casual and relaxed, which was a nice break from others. Nice variety of wines. Our host was great - super friendly, took pictures, etc. would recommend for a casual stop.

Love, love, love it here. My husband and I were looking for a new winery to go to where we could sit and relax with our daughter. A lot of the wineries who used to allow children changed to no children. It kind of sucked because we didn't want to stay away from Napa just because we had a child. Saddleback has always been welcoming and warm when we have brought our daughter. The first two times we went with our daughter was when I was pregnant. Luck for my husband to have his personal DD.When you get to Saddleback, you see tables and benches outside. It's such an unassuming place that we love. The staff here is so friendly and they remember you. Their wine is awesome too. After our first visit, we became members. I hadn't had any of the wine at this point but my husband was in love. I can't praise Saddleback enough!

Chill and causal vibe. Friendly hosts. Picnics are welcome. They will cater the tasting to your red or white preference.

Rick, Angie & Steven , are always accomodating and friendly! Todays clients , lost their lunch spot ....though very busy, they made room even with bottling going on and limited space and no reservation!!!As the Napa valley chauffeur, they know things can change on the drop of a hat....for them to work with myself to keep things rolling , speaks volumnes of Saddleback Cellars and thats besides the great wines!!! CHEERS!!!UPDATE 4/10/22They are still doing well!!! Go form an opinion! CHEERS!WHOA ! First time all year … got to see my girl, Angie, and the newbie Tamara ! Angie and I were like we never missed a beat … had a couple on an 8000 mile road trip having issues and she does what Angie does !!!Angie is truly an asset to Saddleback Cellars !!! an absolute joy as a wine educator , she’s mostly there on the weekends, but you don’t always have to have a reservation, but let them know that the Napa Valley Chauffeur referred you ! CHEERS !!!

Honestly ... as the Napa Valley Chauffeur I have never really had Saddleback cellars wine ... all I know it's a great breath of fresh air from the other commercial wineries that are being bought up by Constellation and Diagio ... Angie , is still a major reason why I suggest this often to clients on their first ventures to the Napa Valley !Spirited , unique and genuine .... I have worked with her over the years and she nailed it today with my couples first trip to the Napa Valley ! There is a reason why this has such a high ranking as a small rustic Winery. Highly suggest going here and doing a tasting ... ask for Angie, or Tamra . Let them know that the Napa Valley Chauffeur referred you ! CHEERS !!!

STOP SCROLLING!I was going to write a long review on how wonderful Saddleback wines are, how friendly and welcoming Angie is, and how lovely it is to taste outside amongst the vines, but looking at the reviews, they all say the same thing!You can scroll down, but all the reviews are the same! If you're on yelp reading reviews on wineries, you're probably not a wine expert (that's OK!), you probably don't want to spend a fortune (you shouldn't!), but you want to have a great Napa experience (You can!). I finished #1 in my sommelier class. Trust me...It's an unpretentious California wine-tasting experience that wine experts and newcomers love for good reason.

What can I say about Saddleback. Not only are the wines in my opinion, the best in Napa (although my wife and I always argue between the Merlot and Cab) but the personal heartfelt service CAN NOT be matched. Angie is amazing. She is one of the biggest reasons we come back. Knowledgeable about all the wines, she also connects on a personal level with the customers. With Angie, it feels like we're visiting an old friend in a beautiful vineyard. We're club members, and still always leave with at least six additional bottles just because of the positive experience she makes. Nils made a great choice with his staff. Cheers!
