We meet you where you are and take you to the place we love. Your journey from San Francisco starts off on the right foot—continental breakfast on board your limo bus and picture-perfect views of the Golden Gate Bridge from stunning Vista Point. Then relax as we take you to from one iconic place to the next: Napa and Sonoma Valleys.
We set the bar high with our first stop. The name is the same, but after just one sip at Jacuzzi Family Vineyards, and the name Jacuzzi will no longer conjure images of spas and hot tubs. You might instead remember sipping their flagship wine, Valeriano. The breathtaking winery with an old-world feel and sweeping vineyard views offers more than just wine. When your taste buds need a break from wine tasting (does that ever happen?), it’s time to sample some The Olive Press’s award-winning olive oils. Choose from a selection of infused, uniquely flavored, and dipping olive oils to enjoy.
The remaining three winery tours are Chauffeur’s Choice. Given their extensive knowledge of Wine Country, you’re in very good hands. In between the tastings and the tourings, a beautiful drive through the Carneros, a wine-growing region and sub-appellation tucked in between the Napa and Sonoma Valleys, in fact, overlapping them. The Napa-Sonoma area in general is blessed with an extraordinary landscape, but Carneros in particular is a beauty, with its gently rolling hills and sweeping flat plains. Carneros, meaning sheep in Spanish, was known for the many sheep ranches dotting the hillside, and you’re very likely to see lots of them roaming around the countryside. Today the region is home to thousands of acres of vineyards and more than 20 wineries, many of which feel more European than Californian, noted for producing fine Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and sparkling wines.
After your fourth and final winery, it’s off to Downtown Napa. Stroll and shop the Oxbow Public Market, then check in at the Wine Train Station and get ready for your extraordinary culinary adventure through the stunning Napa Valley landscape. After your elegant train journey, getting back to your San Francisco hotel is as easy as sitting back, relaxing, and leaving the driving to us.
