A Tour and Tasting at Schramsberg Vineyards
What a day! It was time to sip and learn, or learn and sip actually, as we toured and tasted at the amazing Schramsberg Vineyards.
Bouchaine Vineyards at Harvest Time
With the autumn grape harvest in full swing, visiting wineries is even more wonderful than usual! On this sunny Napa afternoon we chose to drop in at Bouchaine Vineyards to check out their latest wines.
A Tasting at Davies Vineyards
After several wonderful tasting as Schramsberg Vineyards, it was time to check out their still wines. We were excited to visit Davies Vineyards!
Schramsberg Vineyards Does It Again!
So 2018 was just around the corner and we had a shocking problem: not enough champagne! Always problem solvers, we voyaged north to Schramsberg Vineyards to avoid this potential apocalypse.
Bouchaine Vineyards
With 2017 drawing to a close, it was only appropriate to celebrate the new as well as the familiar in wine tastings once more before the new year. For a new tasting experience, we ventured into the Carneros AVA to visit Bouchaine Vineyards. What a great choice!
Mumm Napa – Always a Fun Tasting!
No survey of Napa sparkling wine makers is complete without a visit to Mumm Napa. After a successful tour of Domaine Carneros and Domaine Chandon, our tour finished strong with a visit to Mumm Napa. As usual, the fun was overflowing!
Living It Up at Domaine Chandon
Say you’re touring California wine country and you want to show your friends a good time tasting some lovely sparkling wine. You can’t go wrong if you take those friends to one of our regional favorites: Domaine Chandon!
Peju Province Winery
The Napa Valley is awash with wonderful wineries. Any wine tasting visit to the area is necessarily a selection of a few great wineries from an overwhelming roster of great wineries. One such great winery had been skipped for far too long, so we decided to correct this oversight with a new visit to a favorite: Peju Winery.
Picnic Lunch at V Sattui Winery
A day of wine tasting requires planning, stamina, hydration and lots of food. A recent sparkling wine tour brought us to a great place for a casual picnic lunch: the grounds of V Sattui Winery.

Charles R Vineyards in Livermore NEW!! FRIDAY HIKE & TASTING WITH LISA Friday, January 28, 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. The top of the hill is, hands down, my favorite spot at Charles R. You may have never known it was there, but once you see it, you’ll experience the whole of Livermore Valley from a totally different perspective. The view from the top never disappoints - no matter the weather, the temperature, the steepness or the wind factor, - this special place is simply beautiful. Dick and Bonnie have been generous enough to share this little-known part of the property with us, and are excited to share the space with those willing to make the trek. Join me each 4th Friday for a morning hike up the hill. We will share a taste of wine at the top to quench our thirst, then finish up with a full flight once we’re back in the tasting room. I hope to see you there! Lisa Lee, Winemaker |
