Sounded cool but was pretty simple...thought there'd be more than just tasting 4 wines and then making 3 blends of it. Got bored pretty quickly and didn't find it worth the price

Unique atmosphere unlike any other winery with the cool vibe in the multiple tasting rooms! Great hospitality in the Crystal Room! The grounds were unique with the garden and farm animals. It was a fun place that added something uniquely different and needed for a heightened experience in Napa Valley.

What an amazing experience! Not only is their wine delicious the knowledge that you walk away with is so useful! Recommend doing the blending room before other tastings as they teach you how to taste wine! And you make your own wine how awesome is that!

Myself, my fiance, and our two friends loved our experience at Raymond Vineyards doing the "Winemaker for the day" Our instructor was very pleasant to work with and made us feel right at home. She gave us excellent instructions and left us to our own devices to create our perfect blend. We loved that we can call anytime in the future and order more of our custom blend at any time in the future!

Wow, wow, wow! I found Raymond on line and took a chance on their barrel tasting. We were not disappointed. Katlyn was our host and she was fantastic. She took her time and gave us a great experience and then she gave us a tour of all the rooms. Different experiences in each room and great wine. This is a must wine experience.

Kelly Burns provided my group of six guests with an amazing tour of Raymond and wine appreciation experience. She was personal, got to know each of us on a first name basis, we got to know a bit about herself, and her enthusiasm for the history of Raymond and the Napa Valley wine industry was exceptional. We loved the selected wines for tasting with the big finish of the Generations Cab!

Winery was an amazing. We originally went there because we were staying nearby, but the tasting rooms were very hip and modern. Also, I had no idea they had so many great wines (at reasonable prices) that you can only get from the winery. Our hostess was very friendly and knowledgeable. Overall a fantastic experience!

I had already paid for the tour and was forced to pay twice . After I showed them my receipt for the first payment they PRETENDED to refund me. I only realized later that evening that they didn’t. This place is totally unprofessional and conniving. Only go here if you want to be robbed

They had no reservation for me eventhough I had an email confirmation. They denied the red room because it was booked yet it was vacant. The tasting itself, was mediocre at best. My guests were prepared to join after I had spoken so highly of your winery. The whole experience was embarrassing and a waste of time.

Raymond is an experience that everyone should seek out. They are informative and VERY interesting. The wines are outstanding and only surpassed by the wonderful staff. Our library tasting was just amazing. We were also educated more about the AVA's and how to select wine based on what we most enjoy in our wines.

Extremely thankful for the short notice reservation. We got to the winery early and so we checked in and were told they could put us at a table in the Crystal Room. The two ladies that helped us,were very nice however, it felt as though we were forgotten about. I would say that the time between the pourings were 20 minutes or longer. Other than that, all was good.
