meetings or incentives.

Our Venues
The Tuscan Courtyard is reminiscent of a visit
into Italy’s Old Country. Festive lights are
strung through a canopy of mulberry trees,
setting the mood for an unforgettable evening al
fresco. Our wrought iron chairs are the perfect
complement to this delightful venue.
The Tuscan Courtyard is ideal for groups of 20 to 200
and is available May through October.
The Magnum Library is named for a collection
of vintage wine bottles from around our valley.
The dark, rich wood paneling, lit with soft,
warm light is an inviting place to spend an
evening among friends. The room can easily
transform to space ideal for meetings with full
audio visual capabilities.
The Magnum Library can accommodate up to 72 guests
in a variety of configurations and is available year round.
The Cantinetta is a historic stone building,
once home to a sherry distillery in the 1800s.
Covered in ivy, it’s been renovated to be a
charming private event space. Your guests will
enter through two giant red barn doors into a
warm, inviting room complete with Italian
inspired art and a grand, copper topped bar.
The Cantinetta is available year round and can
accommodate groups of up to 40 guests.

Tra Vigne Restaurant, a landmark location in
the Napa Valley, is available for buy outs,
Monday through Thursday. The high, vaulted
ceilings, dramatic bar and modern Italian prints
will set a stunning backdrop for any private
event.
The restaurant can accommodate 500 guests in the summer
months, and 150 in the winter months.
The Terrazzo is a covered patio overlooking the
courtyard, off of our main dining room. This
open air venue is truly unique in that it can be
modified for use through each season, making it
a perfect spot for lunch or dinner any time of
year.
The Terrazzo can seat up to 32 guests throughout the year.
The Tavolo Sociale is a lovely outdoor venue,
perfectly suited for a single long table, in the
great Italian tradition of family style dining.
With all of the charm of the courtyard in a
more intimate setting, the Tavolo Sociale is the
place to share great food and wine with great
friends and family.
The Tavolo Sociale can accommodate 20 guests at a
single long table, or 24 on round tables. It is available
May through October.

The Tavolo Romantico is a private, secluded
garden setting for life’s most romantic
moments. It is an idyllic location for a marriage
proposal, to celebrate a special birthday or a
milestone anniversary. Whatever the occasion,
it’s sure to be the source of magical memories
for years to come.
Just for two, available May through October.
Did you know that “Tra Vigne” means among
the vines? You can dine Tra Vigne in our
Vineyard, with incredible views of the
mountain range and the serenity of the setting
sun. Lit with candles, it’s a magical spot, and a
true Napa Valley experience.
The Vineyard is available May through October for dinner.
It’s perfect for events of up to 26 guests.
Adjoining Tra Vigne is one of Napa Valley’s
most historic wineries. The Cask Room at
Merryvale is a timeless and romantic room for
parties up to 110 persons. The giant oak aging
barrels and candelabra lit tables make for a
dramatic setting reminiscent of the earliest days
of Napa Valley winemaking.
