About Trinitas Cellars
Trinitas Cellars, established in 2002 by the Busch Family, embodies a philosophy rooted in family, faith, and perseverance. Located in Napa Valley, the winery aims to craft compellingly delicious wines that inspire joy and create memorable experiences for wine enthusiasts.

- Fidelis Tasting ($150) pours small-lot Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Cabernet
- Busch Family founded Trinitas in 2002 on principles of faith and perseverance
- Located inside Grand Reserve at Meritage Resort and Spa on Bordeaux Way

The Setting
Trinitas sits inside Grand Reserve at the Meritage Resort and Spa on Bordeaux Way in Napa, a location that puts wine by the glass, flights, and bottles within reach of resort visitors and locals alike. The space functions as both a tasting room and a spot to linger over a pour without committing to a full experience. Seasonal food pairings arrive from local artisans, and the setting prioritizes access over exclusivity.
The Tasting Experience
Five experiences span $45 to $150, starting with the Celebration Tasting—sparkling, rosé, and whites chosen for freshness—and climbing to the Fidelis Tasting, where small-lot wines represent the cellar's most limited work. The Heritage Tasting ($55) pours estate-grown Napa Valley varietals, while the Legacy Tasting ($65) pulls from cellar selections and flagship bottles. The Seasonal Food & Wine Pairing ($125) pairs wines with bites from nearby artisans, and staff guide each tasting without scripted narratives.
