Fodor's Review:

Designed by postmodern architect Michael Graves, the Clos Pegase winery is a one-of-a-kind "temple to wine and art" packed with unusual art objects from the collection of owner and publishing entrepreneur Jan Shrem. After tasting the wines, which include a bright sauvignon blanc and mellow pinot noir, merlot, and cabernet, be sure to check out the surrealist paintings near the main tasting room and at the curvaceous Henry Moore sculpture in the courtyard.

Cost: Tasting $5-$10
Open: Daily 10:30-5; tour daily at 11 and 2

As promised, Clos Pegase delivers architecture, art and excellent wine. And for very little money, you can taste great wines and admire original Bacons, Dubuffets, classic sculptures... Since it is not centrally located in the Napa valley, it is not too crowded. I loved it.

Paid $10.00 for a tasting of their high end reserves, got less than one taste of two wines. Completely indifferent staff, walked away and never came back. Is the tasting room their new money making market? Don't waste your time being treated like a dumb bumpkin tourist, there are so many other wineries with great or better wine who are happy to see you and treat you with respect. Long time visitor of Napa Valley- will not return to Clos Pegas again.

The place is realy beautifull and the wine is great but the staff is very snobby and does not give you attention. You will not feel welcomed there.
