TOURS/TASTINGS
If you are
planning a visit to the Napa Valley, please consider
spending an afternoon at the Talcott Carneros Olive Ranch.
We offer an educational tour of the Ranch and wonderful
olive oil tasting, personally led by Jim and Patricia
Talcott. You will learn about the olive trees, growing and
harvesting the fruit, and the process of creating a world
class olive oil. Next, you will enter the Visitor Center for
a custom olive oil tasting and culinary event, and upon
conclusion depart with a gift bottle of our award winning
oil. Custom tours are available to groups of 6 or more;
please contact us directly (visit the Contact Us page) for
more information, current pricing and available scheduling
opportunities. For a hint of this excellent experience, read
below comments from past guests at the Ranch:
....We
wanted to thank you for your hospitality, your olive oil
tasting was our favorite thing we did on our
trip to Napa, it ranked
higher than any wine tasting experience.
Amanda and Nate - Chicago
...We rode in on bikes and
had already seen a number of beautiful farms, but once we
turned into
Talcott Olive Farm we
knew we'd come to the most beautiful spot of our trip. Jim
welcomed us with open arms. We loved the tour of their very
well designed home and majestic views. After our tour, we
took a seat in the kitchen to enjoy something that has
changed our lives forever...ice cream,
sea salt
black pepper, and
what we had come for...Talcott Olive Oil. Let us say it once
again, it will change your life. Thank you Jim and Patricia
for your hospitality. We'll be back to see you soon
Tara and Brent - San Diego
...We feel fortunate to have
visited the Talcott Olive Oil Estate. We arrived without
any knowledge of
Olive trees, or
olive oil. We spent an unhurried visit that included an
education of olive trees, production and tasting in the
Talcott’s home. It was the first time we had tasted a world
class olive oil without other flavors on the palate. Pure
Napa Gold
