We visited here back in September and I'm just now getting around to leaving reviews. We opted for the Indoor Standing Counter Tasting and our host was Scott. He was absolutely hilarious and it was clear how much he really loved working there. He had nothing but good things to say about the winery and the family that owns it. He was cracking jokes the whole time and it was just a very lively tasting.
I didn't take any photos of the tasting, but the property is beautiful and has trees that reminded me of Dr. Seuss or the Lorax. It was fun passing by the winery and seeing them everyday during our trip. There were so many stained glass windows on the building and they also had a small art gallery upstairs, so there was a lot to look at. We would visit here again!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Christy N.Vallejo, CA4437Mar 26, 2024
My recent visit to Peju was great. We called ahead and were pleasantly surprised to find that our reservation could be accommodated an hour earlier than planned. Upon arrival, our table was ready, and all the red wines were pre-poured, allowing us to dive straight into the tasting experience.
Our host, Andrew, was incredibly knowledgeable and engaging. He guided us through the tasting, providing fascinating insights into each wine.
The winery itself is simply beautiful, adding to the overall ambiance of the experience.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Stopped in for a tasting solo on a recent work conference trip to Napa and had a wonderful time at Peju, thanks to the delicious wines and excellent service from Joseph!
This is a women and family owned winery that predominantly utilizes European winemaking techniques (which essentially means that the wine is left to ferment with minimal intervention/additives) with delightful results and a gorgeous property.
It was a Tuesday afternoon, so I wound up being the only one in the tasting room, but Joseph kept the wines pouring at a reasonable pace without rushing me, striking the perfect balance between friendly conversation/keeping me company and giving me space to enjoy my wine and reading. He was knowledgeable about the wines/winemaking but also shared his recommendations for local activities and restaurants to enhance my trip. He also thoughtfully incorporated a few bonus wines in my tasting, adding in their unique Province red-white blend to soften the transition between reds and whites and allowing me to finish with the Brut Rose. The highlights for me (a mostly white wine drinker!) were the delicious Cabernet Sauvignon and their Reserve Blend, which were phenomenal. I also particularly enjoyed their Carnival French Colombard, a delicious white wine with just a hint of sweetness.
I wound up ordering several bottles to ship home (a rare achievement for this girl from Delaware, as there are complicated alcohol shipping restrictions that most individual wineries don't navigate --- Peju works with a 3rd party shipper to make it happen!!), and then wandered their beautiful grounds for a bit before I left. All in all, a wonderful visit and a winery I'd visit again if I'm back in the area.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Today we visited Peju for a fantastic wine tasting with Harvey. We lean towards reds and love the Reserve selection... don't forget to ask for the 50/50. We were seated in the special room with the wine barrels and the whole feel was as if we were family. Please stop by tag me and enjoy.

I'll start first by mentioning my visit to Peju Winery was in May 2023. I had the best intentions of posting a review sooner, but sadly it wasn't meant to be. Albeit quite late, I still wanted to review Peju as I personally felt the experience very noteworthy. And now, on to the review.
As I've already mentioned, I visited Peju Winery in May 2023 with my brother and sister-in-law. Thankfully, my SIL had planned our overnight trip to Napa very carefully and made reservations at all the vineyards we visited, Peju included.
Our reservation was early in the morning, I believe around 1030am, and thankfully it wasn't very busy when we arrived. My first impression of the vineyard was that it was very pristine and peaceful. We took some pictures of the main building and fountains before our appointment.
We checked in with the staff/host, and informed him about our appointment. While we were being checked in, my brother and I took the time to admire the arched stained glass window in their main room/store. It depicted a musical trio in a garden setting. I thought it was quite captivating honestly.
We made our way to the tasting room, where our host, Scott, expertly guided us through their tasting menu in describing the taste, smell, and process of their wines. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and especially passionate about the Peju brand and vineyard. He provided a brief history of its owner and founder, Tony Peju, who sadly passed away the month following our visit.
In the end, we purchased a few bottles of wine, had our pictures taken by Scott, and were on our way.
BOTTOM LINE:
An exceptional and memorable visit at Peju Winery.Helpful 6Thanks 0Love this 5Oh no 0Business owner information

The wine tasting experience at Peju Winery in Napa was truly exceptional. The reds, notably their Cabernet Sauvignon, exhibited a rich complexity with well-balanced flavors, leaving a lasting impression. The whites, particularly the Sauvignon Blanc, were equally delightful, offering a crisp and refreshing taste. What stood out just as much as the wines was the fabulous service - knowledgeable staff, a welcoming atmosphere, and a commitment to making the experience memorable. Peju Winery is a must-visit for wine enthusiasts seeking a perfect blend of outstanding wines and impeccable service in the heart of Napa Valley.

Since my review, I have not heard from anyone regarding the horrible experience. You would think a winery of this magnitude would have the decency to at least reach out, but I guess they didn't really care what I had to say. Too bad. I really like their wines.

Ann, thank you for the feedback on your recent experience. We strive for excellent customer service and are sorry to hear this was not reflected in your recent visit. We will reach out directly to learn how we can improve.
Feb 13, 2023Previous reviewI love peju wines but their service is not so great; rather condescending and pushy.
Went for a quick look since we were in the area. The male employee who greeted us was super friendly and helpful. The lady at the gift shop who "helped" direct individuals to their wine tasting seats seemed annoyed at our being there. Granted we were soaking wet and probably trudging mud all over the gift shop, but the attitude she gave us was still uncalled for. It was so off pudding that I declined to purchase any wine. Instead I went down the street to Cakebread and became a wine club member.
I'll still buy peju from total wine or bev mo, but not from the winery. Im sure the wine is better there, but the 'tude is enough to turn everything sour. - Feb 14, 2024
After filling our tummies with breakfast on day 2 in Napa, we found ourselves at Peju winery where my BFF and her hubby are long time wine club members. The entryway has this fairytale quality about it with the bubbling fountain, graceful statues, and impeccable landscaping. The vineyard views are breathtaking, the wine selection is diverse, and the staff's knowledge and friendliness added a wonderfully personal touch to our tasting experience. Each and every pour came with a detailed explanation about the provenance of the grapes going back centuries. I learned so much and was leaning towards giving Peju 5 stars. Their seating arrangement for smaller groups near the large window however seemed a bit cramped. Since my party of 6 occupied the large table, we were very comfortable. Overall, this vineyard is a must-visit for wine enthusiasts seeking a peaceful escape.

What a great time we had learning about Peru & local grape varietals and the magic of blending the grapes!
John was a Wonderful tour guide and explained each wine, how it was made and what we were tasting! Big Thanks! Of course we brought some home... the Cab Franc is wonderful and we will love matching it with a perfect Middle Eastern food!
The grounds are fantastic & relaxing, the tasting was fun and we learned a lot... we will be back! Cheers!Helpful 3Thanks 1Love this 3Oh no 0Business owner information

We had an absolutely lovely time here. Not only are the grounds truly breathtaking, but the tasting room is also airy and bright. They are also dog friendly, including indoors!
They have one of the few competitively priced (under $100) bottles of Napa Valley cabernet sauvignon left in the valley. In addition, we particularly enjoyed their take on Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Their cheese plate is also an excellent value and plenty for two.
The best part of the tasting experience however, hands down, had to be Scott. Scott was a consummate professional, inviting, knowledgeable, and with a voice like no other. They also have discounts for locals! Left with a few bottles and would happily return.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information
