Tour the beautiful estate, stroll the property’s lush Culinary Institute of America farm-to-table garden, enjoy a tasting of prized wines and delicious varietals in the celebrated Redwood Cellar, and hear endless stories of the foundations Krug laid for wine industry.

Tour of the Theater of Nature and discover organic and Biodynamic farming. Learn about the interplay between the soil, the vines and other plants, animals, and the vineyardist as a holistic system in harmony with the calendar and the moon. You’ll love the Red Room and the Crystal Cellar, a working cellar with gorgeous Baccarat chandeliers hanging from the ceilings and an extraordinary collection of historical crystal decanters. And of course, sample some of the winery’s wonderful wines.

*All of our winery tours require moderate stair climbing and standing for extended periods. We encourage guests who may have difficulty performing these two activities to consider one of our dining journeys. In the spirit of traditional rail seating, you may share a table with another party.
