Napa Valley
Nancy Brown, Uptake lodging editor, takes on a funny and fun drive north into the Napa Valley for a visit to Avia Napa, the Pink Mansion, Calistoga, Solbar, Solage Resort, Castello de Amorosa & Twomey wine tasting. It sounds like a trip where you won’t get thirsty – she starts off with a great cup of hot chocolate and ends with good wines and fine food.
Indeed, Nancy’s first day “required” a stop a day spa! Listening to this trip, one clearly gets the impression that this two day jaunt is just the ticket for a great getaway.

The wonderful scenic drive highlights the most beautiful portions of the Napa Valley and Sonoma Wine Country, but is not meant as an in-depth connoisseur’s tour of wineries. You don’t need to love wines in order to enjoy this scenic drive. At times, you’ll feel as if you’re driving in France, Italy, Portugal, and Spain. You’ll travel through historic and picturesque towns like Yountville, Calistoga Hot Springs, St. Helena, Rutherford, Napa, Sonoma, and Glen Ellen, with the chance to stop at the most prestigious wineries and restaurants.
