Cal Wine is located on the corner of First Street and Silverado Trail - on the corner just south of the large JV Wine & Spirits store. Note that this wine shop will eventually be moving as there are plans for a Ritz Carlton to be built in the area. The owner of Cal Wine has already secured a building closer to downtown. We will schedule a re-visit to their new facility once it is up and running. Cal Wine is one of the Napa Valley pioneers for using the Internet for selling wine. As a result, they have a large online catalogue of Napa produced wine with national and International distribution - yes they will ship worldwide! With many searchable categories including by winemaker, they make online shopping for wine a breeze. After many years of exclusively selling wine online, Cal Wine opened their retail outlet and wine tasting bar in 2006.

The shop is small but the wines represented here are typically wines you will not find in your average wine shop. If you don't find what you are looking for try their online store or submit an online request. They have a very good selection of high end wines from local Napa wineries, a smaller selection of Sonoma County wines and some international representation. Tastings are typically held during select hours on Thursday, Fridays and Saturday. They are first and foremost a wine shop, but if you happen to be in the area during the aforementioned days, stop in for a tasting. A tasting is either in the wine shop next to their tasting counter - or if weather permits is outside in their patio. Private tastings can also be arranged. Call ahead. The tasting menu varies but there are usually some Napa wineries represented. After being in the business for a number of years they are experts on what type of wine is available and can tailor the tastings and selection to match your level of experience as well as varietals enjoyed.

Also ask about their schedule of special Library and select winery events. Ever wanted to private label your wine with a label of your choice? Cal Wine offers this service - pick out the wine you want to label, choose one of their stock labels or design your own. This is a great idea for birthdays, weddings and other special occasions. A variety of wine clubs are also offered. For more information,

Note that Cal Wine will be moving to downtown Napa at some point, once construction begins on a new hotel on the site of their current location. We will keep this updated and will re-visit once they are in their new location.
