Mount Eden Vineyards - Saratoga

Finally got a chance to go up here last month. I've had the wines before. Chardonnay is the best I've ever had from any producer period. A chard that is actually worth the hefty price! A bit old world Chablis but all the good things about California chard too, ages beautifully! The cab and pinot are pretty good but the chard is definitely unbeatable. Service is great along with the views even if it's not exactly mother nature down below. Anyway, don't sleep on the less expensive Domaine Eden label from the same producer. Those are quite good too!

Our visit to Mount Eden Vineyards was excellent. The location is spectacular, the wines are extraordinary and the host was very friendly and knowledgeable. This was a highlight of our wine tour.

It is something else to get there but it is soooo worth it. Go!!!

A California legend still making some of (if not THE) best wine in the state...sorry Napa but you know it's true. Great history and an amazing view. Well worth the crazy drive up the single lane dirt road. Super entertaining and cute dogs on the property too, for you dog lovers.

??Great place to cool down on a hot day.. Nicely, shaded terrace, with a cool breeze, valley view.. Dogs run the joint
