Private In-HOME TASTINGS
Bring the Napa Valley Wine Experience to Your Home
Whether you’re hosting an intimate dinner party, celebrating a special occasion, entertaining clients, or planning a corporate event, Spence Vineyards brings an authentic Napa Valley wine tasting experience directly to you.
Our private in-home wine tastings are led by a member of the Spence team and feature our small-production Howell Mountain wines, including our acclaimed Cabernet Sauvignon. We travel throughout California and regularly host events across the United States, creating memorable wine experiences that combine exceptional wines, engaging storytelling, and genuine hospitality.
Instead of simply pouring wine, we recreate the feeling of visiting a boutique Napa Valley winery, without your guests ever leaving home.
Why Choose an In-Home Wine Tasting?
A private wine tasting creates a unique experience your guests will remember long after the evening ends.
Our in-home tastings are ideal for:
- Private dinner parties
- Corporate entertaining
- Client appreciation events
- Birthday celebrations
- Anniversary parties
- Holiday gatherings
- Wine club events
- Charity auctions
- Executive retreats
- Team-building events
Whether you’re hosting eight guests around your dining room table or fifty guests at a private venue, we’ll customize the experience to fit your event.
What To Expect
During your experience, we’ll guide guests through a curated flight of Spence Vineyards wines while sharing the stories behind our Howell Mountain vineyard, Napa Valley winemaking, vintage variation, food pairings, and what makes mountain-grown Cabernet Sauvignon so distinctive.
Guests are encouraged to ask questions throughout the tasting, creating an experience that’s relaxed, educational, and conversational rather than scripted.
Most tastings last approximately 90 minutes, though experiences can easily be customized to fit your event.
Optional Food & Wine Pairings
We can coordinate with local chefs, caterers, restaurants, or gourmet food providers to create custom wine pairings designed specifically for your event.
Whether it’s passed appetizers, a multi-course dinner, or an elegant charcuterie spread, we’ll help create a seamless Napa Valley dining experience in your own home.
Where We Travel
Although we’re based on Howell Mountain in Napa Valley, we regularly host private wine tastings throughout California and travel nationwide for larger events.
We’ve brought Spence wines to homes, country clubs, corporate offices, private clubs, and charity events across the country.
If you’re wondering whether we can come to you, simply reach out—we’d love to discuss your event.
