About
“We have been on a quest to realize the full potential of California’s historic vineyards - and to create greater understanding about the joyful pleasures and true character of Zinfandel and Petite Sirah. Honoring the wisdom and labors of our forefathers, and keeping the agricultural and social traditions alive that are unique to American wine … it doesn’t get any more gratifying than that in the wine business…” - Dave Pramuk and Bob Biale, Co-Founders, Robert Biale Vineyards

Visited in mid- October with 2 friends. We had a seated tasting outside near the vineyards with beautiful mountain views. The hostess was friendly and told us a lot about the origin of the winery and the wines while we were enjoying them. This winery focuses on Zinfandel. I prefer Cab Sauv, but still ended up buying 3 bottles here as their Zins are fantastic. This is a smaller winery and we enjoyed a very relaxed tasting experience here.

Lovely small vineyard slightly off the beaten track. Refreshing staff put their heart’s into the entire process of wine tasting and the history behind the Black Chicken! Wonderful experience

This is an excellent winery and tasting experience, with world class Zinfandels. Thomas hosted us and was knowledgable about the wines, and the history and legacy of the winery. A very fun experience as well. Every wine we tasted was very good which is not common at many wineries. They do several different expressions of Zinfandel from light to medium bodied wines. Not the sweet jammy style of Zins, but elegant and very structured multi-layered wines. We bought 3 different Zins and we will be back!!!! Do not miss this gem.

Fantastic Wines and People! I have been a member of the Black Chicken Society for over 15 years, with this only being our second visit. One can’t express the gratitude we felt on our recent visit to Napa. The winery personnel went out of their way to explain the wines, and showed passion for what they do! Can’t wait until we visit in the future!

I highly recommend that travelers to the Napa Valley who enjoy hearty Zins and Petite Syrahs make a reservation to taste at Robert Biale Vineyards.
I've been a member for years and was picking up my fall selections today and tasting the latest releases. A couple came up, and said they didn't have a reservation to taste, but wanted to buy a couple of bottles of Biale Zin that they have been ordering at restaurants.
Black Chicken is the flagship Zin, but visit to get a taste of the varieties of Zinfandel and Petite Syrah that aren't on restaurant lists or at wine retailers. Biale specializes in small volume generational family owned vineyards to make a number of great wines you can only experience in the tasting room. Enjoy!

This winery, its history and craft, are truly amazing and not to be missed. The wines were phenomenal, the storytelling from our wine expert Tom kept us on the edge of our seats, and we soaked in the glorious scenery. Tasty and memorable zins made and bottled in small quantities are their expertise and come from some of the oldest vines in the valley. We joined the wine club and look forward to enjoying these wines and home and will definitely visit again.

Each time I visit Robert Biale, the experience only gets better, Never the same but always a treat to enjoy the spectacular wines, warm and engaging people and the story/history never gets old. A not-to-miss when visiting the Napa Valley and perhaps the best part is taking some wine with me to enjoy at home while re-living the experience. Cheers to Robert Biale Vineyards and the team. I can't wait for the next visit!

We LOVED Biale! We had Roberto as our server and he was incredible. He was so much fun and so well versed about the wines. You could also feel his passion for both his role and the experience. We visited a few vineyards yesterday but Biale was absolutely our favorite. If you go definitely ask for Roberto!

We spent a wonderful morning tasting the amazing wines at Biale. Out of the seven tastings so far this trip, Biale was hands down our favorite. As soon as Thomas found out we loved Zinfandel he proceeded to expertly guide us through a very broad sampling of not only their zins but also some petite sirahs. He was an outstanding host/educator. We fell in love with their wines and joined their wine club. Such a perfect morning!

My family of four (including two adult sons) visited Biale, and what a lovely time it was! We arrived on a cool morning to be seated at a table overlooking the vineyard, with a heater and blankets to keep us comfortable. Our host (I wish I could remember his name!) was so knowledgeable and approachable. The Zinfandels sold themselves...it was an easy decision to join the wine club. We spoke with another couple at the table next to us that shared how well Biale treats its members. There was a real feeling of family there. Can't wait to receive our first shipment!

I would also allow 60 to 90 minutes, but they will certainly be flexible and I am sure try to accommodate your schedule. I am sure you'll have a great time as long as you enjoy great Zinfandel, Petite Sirah and other reds. This is a great family-owned business with passion for wine making.
