 8 Reviews  Napa and Napa Valley have many wineries for you to sample their different varietals of premium estate grown grapes that become the nectar of the gods. One winery not only has the many varietals to sample and purchase, but has one of the most pleasing to the eye construction. Artesa Vineyards &... 

 4 Reviews  Go to Niebaum-Coppola winery. This is exactly what I would expect from a winery in the Napa Valley. So many looked too commercialized. We stopped at this one because we are fans of the Godfather movies but were impressed with the grounds and architecture of the buildings. They offer complimentary... 

 2 Reviews  while the Napa Valley Wine Worker Mural Tribute along CA Route 29 along the entrance to Napa Valley is a popular stop. This other sign called " Welcome to Napa Valley" is located up north of Napa at the Boundary of Saint Helena and Calistoga towns in the Northern Napa Valley Area. Most Wine Bus... 

 3 Reviews  My husband and I took the Napa Wine Train along with a group from a conference he was attending. It was our most relaxing day on our trip. The cars are beautifully restored, and so well done, I could almost imagine it was 1910. We were seated in the dining car and given a choice of entrees for... 

 3 Reviews  I had been a bit half-hearted about visiting a "winery". Not only had we all visited many vineyards in France and Spain (and Wales!) and had free refreshments provided by the owners; helped with the "vendange" in Provence; watched processing and bottling and visited caves in many places - so what... 

 2 Reviews  One of my favorite wineries to visit in Napa Valley is Opus. To me, the winery looks like a shrine to wine. They spent a lot of money building the winery and it has many fantastic features to see during a tour. The wine tasting and tour will cost you $25. If you feel like splurging, this is... 

 1 Review  Again Old Picture of a Domaine Chandon Winery. If you think Louis Vuitton and Moet et Chandon Champagne, then think Domain Chandon Winery! It is owned by the LVMH Group (Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy), the largest luxury brand consortium in the world! Hence it's wine estate is one of the largest and... 

 4 Reviews  You arrive in America from Germany is 1868 and take the train to California from New York in 1870, where you believe the soil is perfect for growing grapes and the land is able to be caved for wine storage. This is the story of Jacob Beringer. Jacob bought land with his brother Frederick in 1875 and... 

 1 Review  Napa, first settled by Americans around 1830 and incorporated in 1872, today has about 70,000 residents. Today Napa is the heart of California wine country, and the city claims more pre-1906 buildings than any other town in the Bay Area. The city of Napa also shares its name with the Napa Valley... 

 2 Reviews  The three daughter of Zeus known as the "three graces" are a major part of the logo for Clos Du Val Winery in the Stag's Leap appellation and with good reason. Again we have another award winning winery that won out over their French rivals. This time in 1986, the1972 Clos Du Val Cabernet Sauvignon... 

 1 Review  Open Daily: 11 am to 4:30 pm (some holidays excepted) Tastings are Complementary The Tasting room is a charming cave where you can also get a first hand look at their winemaking process. The staff is casual, friendly and loves their wine. They're known for producing a nice Zinfindel. 

 2 Reviews  Far removed from the days when White Zinfandel accounted for virtually its entire production, Sutter Home's wine portfolio now includes chardonnay, cabernet sauvignon, merlot, merlot rose, pinot noir, sauvignon blanc, gewurztraminer, chenin blanc, and moscato. 

 2 Reviews  To achieve a constant holding temperature for the barrel wines, the Shafers tunneled into the hill side and then finished the tunnels with cement. This is just one of the tunnels that holds the barrels. Annual production is about 32000 cases produced from about 200 acres. 

 1 Review  The other wine tasting we did in the Napa Valley region was at Plumpjack Winery, in Oakville. Plumpjack is a boutique winery that has a welcoming tasting room, surrounded by a pretty garden. The tasting room is also home to a small shop selling both Plumpjack and Napa Valley merchandise. We did... 

 1 Review  Madonna Estate Winery offers a large Selection of Wines that are organically grown and was founded by the Bertulucci Family started by Andrea “Andy” Bartolucci (another Italian-American Pioneer here in the Napa Valley) in the year 1922. This is one of the oldest winemaking families in the valley,... 

 1 Review  Andretti Winery - A surreal setting amidst an oasis of trees, away from the congested highway 29 and great place to either start or end any day of the week. If you're into the main stream hot spots, just follow the big bus'... Otherwise, pay attention. Start in advance, plan your trip by picking... 

 1 Review  The Chimney Rock Winery is not a "must see activity" but a "must stop activity" if you find yourself on the Silverado Trail on the east side of Napa Valley. We stopped there on our bicycle ride down the Silverado Trail. The tasting room is popular, crammed with many people trying to find a space at... 

 1 Review  Opened in 1880, The Napa Opera House is Napa's main historical attraction. In its early years it hosted vaudeville performances as well as notable persons such as Jack London. The theater closed in 1914, and the building was put into other use as it slowly deteriorated, with plans surfacing for...
