Frequently Asked Questions

While walk-ins are welcome when availability allows, we recommend reserving your tasting in advance to ensure we can dedicate the full experience to you. Reservations can be made through our website or via phone/text at 707-963-9999.

Our tasting room is open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Please note that our last seating is at 4:30 p.m., so every guest has time to fully enjoy the experience without feeling rushed.

Our tastings are designed as a leisurely 90-minute experience, long enough to explore the nuance of each wine, short enough to leave you time for your next stop in the valley.

Alpha Omega Winery is our estate at 1155 Mee Lane in Rutherford. The Alpha Omega Collective tasting room is a separate, downtown Napa location at 1245 First St, Napa. Both offer wonderful ways to discover our wines, but our Rutherford estate is where you’ll find the fountains and vineyard views.

We understand that plans change. Please contact us to let us know of your cancellation.
