Why Wine Country • Choose from distinct regions each with their own appeal: Napa Valley, Healdsburg, and Sonoma • More than 400 wineries dot the 30 miles of Napa Valley, one of the world’s premier wine regions and famous for its prized Cabernet Sauvignon • Downtown Napa is one of the most happening places full of luxury lodging, hip wine bars, celebrity-led restaurants, wine tasting rooms, and beautiful river walks • A variety of excursions allow you to explore other wonders beyond the vines
Lif t • San Francisco International Airport (SFO) and Oakland International Airport (OAK) are just over 1 hour away from downtown Napa
Recommendations BEST TIME OF YEAR: Napa is a yearround destination, with each season offering something different. Peak times, such as Fall harvest, are busy and the Winter months are the quietest.
Napa Valley is more than just excellent wines—its history has roots as deep as those of the region’s old Cabernet vines. Travel + Leisure
