One of my favorite "secret" spots in Napa to go wine tasting. Call ahead and make a reservation but if you can't, stop in and they'll probably pour you some wine. Small tasting room and great wines.

i worked there for one harvest, so I'm biased, but this is the place for a fine-wine sit down formal tasting. Some times you're looking for that right?
