Madonna Estate wines have been handcrafted by the Bartolucci Family, Napa Valley winegrowers and winemakers for nearly a century. They are created from 100 percent organically grown grapes, which are dry farmed on the estate vineyard. Located in the world-renowned Carneros region of the Napa Valley, the Bartolucci's take great pride in the wines they craft.
Through great skill, elegance and care, Madonna Estate wines are styled to capture the best of the vintage, the vineyard, and the variety. A Reserve Tasting is $25.00 per person, offering a selection of 5 different wines from a set tasting menu. Great for wine lovers looking for a more intimate setting for their wine tasting.

As a boy, living and working on his family vineyard, Andrea Bartolucci has always utilized and believed in natural farming methods. Beyond tradition, Andrea believes this is the healthiest approach to grape growing. As a third-generation grower, he believes that organic farming is much more than withholding the use of chemicals; it also involves nurturing the soil and plants and improving soil fertility.
We think of our Club members as extended family. Our wine club offers you the opportunity to discover all our organically grown Estate Bottled Wines plus other benefits. For about $55-156 per shipment (no membership fee), which includes your 20% discount, tax, shipping container, and shipping expenses, our premium wine will be sent to you.
So, recalling the age-old question, "What came first, the chicken or the egg?" one might also apply a similar question, "What comes first, the wine or the food". Some of us, on the other hand, may have a nice bottle of wine set aside and then decide what food would complement that tasty vintage, but let's not confuse things.

What a treat! Most Napa wineries charge $50-100 to taste 4-5 wines. Madonna has lots of options and tasting starts at an incredibly reasonable $25, especially for the area.
I highly recommend the Merlot, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Grigio. Great wines without the Napa price tags or pretentious attitude.
If you need an affordable but high quality taste (or a bottle or two...or six), look no further. Highly recommended.

We decided to stop there on short notice on our trip through Napa, and what a fabulous experience. First of all the wine tasting was a very personal and extremely educational experience. The wines tasted that morning certainly appealed to our taste buds. With the guidance of their extremely experienced wine guide. Tonight we are sitting in South Florida enjoying an absolute outstanding 2016 Dolchetto by our lake accompanied by a steak dinner. We joined the wine club, and our wine chiller is filled with the organic wine gems from Madonna Estates.

We showed up on a rainy day wondering if we could do a tasting. We waited in the lobby for a while without anyone helping us out. We didn’t get annoyed at that because they did look busy. But after a while a blonde older woman with an accent approached us with an annoyed look and said “can I help you?” We asked if we could do a tasting but she quickly said “ we’re busy and not doing tastings but if you want you can buy a bottle and drink it outside” mind you, it’s raining. And she wasn’t nice about it either. We just kinda sulked out of there feeling embarrassed. As regulars to

Madonna Estate was such a wonderful experience. We came here for a birthday celebration for my brother, my mother, and myself. Our host, Issac, really made us feel at home. He was very knowledgeable and had such a positive attitude. He answered any and everything question we had. You can really tell his passion for working for Madonna Estate.
Now, to talk about their wines. I am a beginner wine drinker myself but each wine we tasted was pleasurable in the palate. We liked everything so much, we ended up buying 8 bottles. My cousin and I also became members ourselves because we enjoyed the experience

Richard was our host and he was absolutely fabulous. He made us feel at home with friendly humor and incredible wine. It was the three of us girls on a trip and we really didn’t know where to go since this is our first time in Napa. We went out on a whim and decided to come to this place last minute and it ended up being the best time we had in all of wine country. Highly recommend you coming to this place if you like dad vibes and good vines!!!!!! We left with 3 bottles! Rock on Richard!!!

We decided to have tastings at Madonna for a couple reasons: 1) their tasting fee is generally much less than the other wineries, and 2) Madonna Estate is a smaller winery. We were very happy with our choice. i was greeted by name when my family and I arrived. We sat outside and were served by Bob Blackstone, the tasting room manager who was SO accommodating and personable. He told us of the history of the estate and of course, talked to us about each of the 5 (yes 5) wines included in our $25 tasting. When we told him that we actually prefer sweeter wines, he exchanged two of the wines on

Delightful little family-owned winery; celebrating their Centennial in 2022! Five great wines on the tasting; one white, four red (there are two other whites available for sale). Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Wine is really tasty! The chardonnay is light, buttery, and with just a hint of oak (they age half in stainless, half in oak and mix them, for a lighter oak finish). An interesting red, the Dolcetto, is on the tasting menu and is fantastic! Fruit forward, a hint of sweetness but not too much, it's a great "intro" to reds for those that prefer white. The tasting fee ($25) is waived upon

Extremely disappointed in this establishment. We made an appointment as a family outing, which was not honored by the staff. Strike one.
Additionally, instead of making accommodations we were told that we could move tables or go to the picnic area if we wanted to stay or we could buy and drink a bottle of wine at a different area. More of a nuanced disrespect to be honest. Strike two.
Frankly the ambiance and quality of the place was subpar. Also have had the wine before visiting. Mediocre at best. Most important strike three.
Lack of class. Lack of courtesy. Lack of quality. This place is

This Napa winery is small but very personal. The staff was great in explain their grapes and different types of wine. It was nice to learn the different types of grapes used and what regions of Napa use what grapes. Our server was amazing. He was helpful, funny abs very accommodating. Their wine is only exclude to their estate so you can only buy it from them but it's worth the visit.

I stumbled into this place about a year ago after visiting a nearby winery and I consider myself incredibly lucky having done so! I came to visit during covid and my experience was just as wonderful.
First, I've been guided by Bob both times and he is certainly one of the best things about this place. He really has a passion for the industry and does an excellent job in sharing that passion with you. He was extremely helpful and pleasant in assisting my friend (who, at 31, came with me to have his first glass of wine) in how to really appreciate wine and some other interesting background

If you enjoy traditional affordable Italian wines and excellent service, this is your spot. I have never had a bad experience here and have been a member since my first visit. Bob and Richard know how to make you feel special and take the time to explain their wines, the process and where all their grapes come from. If you are in Sonoma/Napa, I highly recommend adding them to your visit list!

Made an appointment during Covid easily online because I hate calling to make appointments haha. It was easy and convenient. This is such a great first stop on your way to Silverado or on your way back to your destination. It's cute and quaint but the customer service is epic and puts you in a great mood to start your day off right. Bob is everything!!! It's safe and spaced out so no worries there. The Chardonnay and Cab is what's up homie. I had a cute date so shameless plug here:

I really enjoyed our time at Madonna Estates! We did a bust tour that took us to a few wineries, and this was our first stop. My favorite is their Rosetto, it's a must try! They were very informative, even taught us how to chew wine.

Final winery on our wine tour, the main difference here is this winery is organic.
By the time we got here most of the group seemed like they were done with drinking wine!!
Wines to begin with were the whites not bad good wines , followed by Rose .. good Rose & some reds, I skipped the reds this time.
This winery was more about learning about the wines & process, some cool tools to buy & lots of souvenirs & wines of course.
They had a nice set up where u can charge your phones very helpful. Overall this winery was more of a learning experience than the others seemed like less

Our 3rd stop on our Sonoma/Napa Valley wine tour.
It was probably the least "fancy" of the bunch, with a dated tasting room that appeared due for renovation.
Despite the aesthetics, we found the staff extremely friendly. We got a tour of the barrel storage area as well as the labeling machinery.
I did not enjoy their reds too much, but I did like their Gewürztraminer.
Overall, a smaller friendly winery. Because of the small physical space, I would say it's not ideal for larger groups. I would also take away a point for being a bit dated.
