Prager Winery & Port Works
Prager Winery & Port Works in the Napa Valley's St. Helena, has been the perfect prescription for Port lovers since 1979. The winery is a family-run affair with three generations of Pragers involved in the crafting of premium ports and wines. In the intimate tasting room guests are treated to generous portions and can cleanse there palates with delectable chocolate truffles and Imogene Prager's sweet and savory walnuts. The Prager's invite you to step off the beaten path and join them for an exceptional port experience.
