As one of Napa Valley’s few remaining Ghost Wineries, Flora Springs Winery sets itself apart by offering monthly winery tours that invite visitors to discover its history in an unconventional way. A Ghost Winery is a winery that was built between 1860 and 1900 and was challenged in the 20th century with a widespread vine disease, the Great Depression and Prohibition. Amazingly, Flora Springs Winery continues to produce its wine on the same site where the tours are conducted.
The Sixteen Spirits Historical Ghost Winery Tour & Tasting is offered one Sunday every month from April to October and guests can expect to be safely guided by professional paranormal investigators from Napa City Ghosts & Legends over the course of two hours. As part of the experience, winery guests are able to taste Flora Springs' Ghost Winery Malbec.
