Napa Valley Wineries

by | Apr 30, 2009 | Food & Drink, Travel

Wow. We had such a nice time tasting wines in Napa Valley, mostly in the St Helena and Yountville areas. Eric already mentioned the who, so now that I’m back in NC and can edit the photos… here are some shots of the beautiful winery estates we visited…

Manny, me and Lynn @ Domaine Chandon
my dad, me and my stepmom under the trellis at Domaine Chandon

entrance to the cave and waterfall @ Jarvis
the setting at Jarvis was more lovely than the wine, unfortunately

Silver Oak winery
hey! the Silver Oak lighthouse isn’t really in the vineyard like the label illustrates

Beringer Cellar Tasting building
who knew they had fantastic wines at Beringer, it’s not just white zinfindel!

Silverado winery
Silverado has a lovely building and view of their vineyards off the patio

For the record, the setting at Rombauer was beautiful with plenty of potted plants and gardens, we just didn’t take any photos there.
