Napa is a picturesque destination, perfect for an escape from the drill of daily life, and with more than 250 vineyards and wineries, you'll discover the perfect pour at every turn! Enjoy local art along the Napa River Art Walk, wind through the breathtaking scenery, savor the bold flavors of fresh cuisine and homegrown fare, tour charming wineries, picnic in radiant vineyards, sample exquisite wines, put yourself in the chef's hands with a chef's tasting menu experience, and learn about California's largest wine appellation. All you have left to do is raise your glass to say "Cheers!"

Save a few hours to leisurely savor the ultimate food and wine experience during the Chef's Tasting Experience at La Toque, during which you'll partake in a pre-selected menu of six courses including four savory dishes, a cheese course, and a dessert. Chef Ken Frank's landmark restaurant, La Toque, is the recipient of Wine Spectator's highest honor, The Grand Award, for its wine list and excellence in service. Pairing wine with food made by the finest ingredients is the culinary team's shared passion - they meet with the Sommeliers daily to taste together, constantly exploring, looking for combinations that elevate both the food and wine, creating harmony. As part of a vibrant local food community, La Toque has an amazing network of dedicated farmers and purveyors supplying the delicious products prepared for you, and the menu evolves continually to highlight seasonal ingredients at their peak.

Make time for a memorable wine tasting experience during a seated tasting on the rustic wrap-around porch of Frog's Leap Winery.

Stroll on your own or join a guided tour of the gorgeous vineyards and winery. Wine specialists are on hand to guide you through the wines and share information about their winemaking practices.
