Discovering the Hidden Gems of Napa Valley: A Visit to Back Room Wines

A Passion for the Uncommon

Nestled in the heart of Downtown Napa, on the corner of First & Main Streets, lies a treasure trove of rare and exquisite wines: Back Room Wines. This boutique wine shop is a haven for connoisseurs seeking unique, hard-to-find, and limited-production wines and spirits from around the world.

Back Room Wines is not your ordinary wine store. It specializes in sourcing cult favorites, small-batch productions, and wines that offer exceptional value. The shop's inventory goes beyond the borders of California and Napa Valley, featuring an impressive selection of European wines, particularly from Southern France, and fine wines from the Southern Hemisphere.

What sets Back Room Wines apart is its commitment to finding the perfect wine for each customer. The knowledgeable staff takes the time to understand your preferences, whether it's grape variety, style, food pairing, or budget, to recommend a wine that you're sure to love.

A New Addition to the Spirit Program: Napa Valley Brandy Co.

While the shop boasts about 800 wines from 14 different countries, its greatest asset is its access to the small-production producers of Napa Valley. Local winemakers and wine enthusiasts frequent Back Room Wines to discover the best wines from Napa Valley. A little know facts is that Back Room Wines has expanded its offerings to include local spirits including Napa Valley Brandy Co.

Back Room Wines Says it best, β€œThe Solera Gold Brandy, distilled by Napa Valley Brandy Co., is a testament to the rich history of brandy production in Napa Valley, which dates back over a hundred years. This brandy is aged in spent tawny port barrels from V. Sattui and new French oak barrels, using the solera system. With a minimum aging period of four years, the brandy features grapes from the Italics Vineyard in the Coombsville AVA. It boasts heavy Bourbon qualities, with notes of burned caramel, vanilla, oak, and spice, making it a unique addition to Back Room Wines' spirit selection.”
