Napa Valley wineries with cave tours

Napa's wine caves keep barrels at a steady, cool temperature, and walking through them is one of the most distinctive things to do in the valley. Some caves date to the 1800s, others were dug in recent decades and double as tasting rooms. These wineries offer tours or tastings that include their caves. Cave visits are almost always by reservation and run in small groups, so book a few days ahead, more on weekends.

22 wineries, ranked by guest rating. Details checked against each winery's own site.

Tips before you go

  • Bring a layer: caves stay around 55–60°F year-round.
  • Cave tours usually run 60–90 minutes; leave buffer before your next stop.
  • Wear flat shoes for damp, uneven floors.
