Time Left: CLOSED


Description
Upon arrival at Artesa Winery, you and three adult guests will be greeted with a glass of sparkling wine and enjoy a private, guided tour of the facility. The tour concludes in an exclusive, seated tasting area where your group will taste a custom selection of wines with your host.
Artesa Vineyards and Winery opened as Codorníu Napa in 1991. Built by the Raventos family of Barcelona, owners of Codorniu in Spain's Catalonia region, the winery brought the family's 450-year winemaking heritage and 125-year history as one of Europe's leading methode champenoise producers to the Napa Valley.
This environmentally conscious winery was built by removing and setting aside 30 feet of hilltop, then matching the facility's height to the hill's original elevation. The completed 127,000 sq. ft. structure was covered with reserved earth and planted with native grasses.
Artesa's signature style is evident in intense, ripe, fruit-forward, opulent yet elegant wines in "high balance." High balance winemaking produces extractive yet harmonious wines, matching concentrated aromas and flavors with well-integrated oak so that no component dominates. All Artesa wines are "ultra-premium status," receiving combined barrel and bottle aging one year longer than most ultra-premium winery programs.
