We had a tour of the castle and were hosted at a wine tasting by Joe. He was knowledgable and very entertaining and made the tour very worhtwhile. I would recommend the castle and the tour and tasting and ask for Joe! P.S. The wine was good too, especially the dry Gewurztraminer which you don't find often. We brought one... more

Castello di Amorosa is what the the name implies, it is a labor of love. The owner of this vineyard went to great lengths to build a castle as true to form as possible as one found in 14th century Italy. The attention to detail, stone work, chapel, iron works are all works of art and will evoke a sense... more

It's sad, Castello Di Amorosa was a wonderful place, cost is on par with other fine wineries, in fact it is cheaper and it has a castle to boot. My wine tasting was fantastic at the castle. On my way out I over heard a couple say, "They don't give enough to taste, we had to ask our guide to... more

This is a difficult review because the Mrs puts the "Castle of Love" at 3 and I weigh-in with a solid 4. So in a democracy 3.5, but it's my review! On Sunday, November 1, 2009, we arrived at 3:30 for the last tour at 4:00. The day was unequivocally glorious. The unusual but significant mid-October rain had already started... more

If you're looking for great photo ops in Calistoga, this is one of the best places to go. The castle is beautiful and the view is amazing. I know it's silly that I went to visit Napa even though I'm not a big wine fan, but I just like the scenery. So when I had to pay an entrance fee... more

They took stones, furniture and artifacts from Italy - they just missed good wine and the Italian attitude. Better suited as a themed function facility. Wine mediocre - simple sweet whites and uninteresting reds. Incredible amount of money which could have been put to better use. Much focus on the developer's efforts to reclaim his Italian heritage. Skip it more

I brought 8 people. on Oct. 11. Your ressie person got the wrong date, the wrong phone number and gave us no info about any other tours that were available. Therefore, someone from your managemt. had to come give us the tour -- Greg, the good looking one who is 50. We were overwhelmed by his knowledge and his amazing... more

My husband and I visited the Castel, Castello Di Amorosa, in Calistoga, CA this past week and we LOVED it. The Grounds are gorgeous and the tour is educational. We paid a fee of $25.-- each to take the tour which included 5 tastings of their wines. If you never visited a real Casle, this place is the place to... more

We went to Castello di Amarosa's 2009 harvest party expecting to see a Disney style castle facade with a normal building behind it. We were so surprised to see that this is no facade, but an authentic Tuscan style castle built into a beautiful Napa Valley hillside. You really have to see it to believe it. And the harvest party... more

We took the Castella di Amarosa tour and the views from the castle are very nice. The whole theme of a castle in the middle of Wine Country is a novelty, but we felt that you were paying bit by bit for that castle. You couldn't get in through the front gate without paying for a tasting/tour. Once inside the... more
