Jour 1
Morning | Halehouse
Rooted in cosmetic science, this facial blends botanicals and oils from Sausalito’s Botnia Skincare, resulting in a treatment tailored to your skin’s needs.Afternoon | Oxbow Public Market
From oysters at Hog Island Oyster Co. to fresh juice from Hudson Ranch’s Greens & Goods, the ultimate Napa food tour begins at Oxbow Public Market.
Evening | RH Wine Vault
For moody vibes and world-class wines, savor a glass (or two) at Yountville’s RH Wine Vault, located in the elegant Historic Ma(i)sonry Building.
Evening | Dinner at Bear
After a day of exploring, dinner and drinks at Bear are essential. I always order a bunch of dishes for the table – their wood-fired vegetables are to die for – and a skinny margarita for me.
Jour 2
Morning | Coffee & Bike Ride
When I’m craving a latte, Gavel is my go-to. Pair with a freshly baked pastry for takeaway, then cycle through the valley’s tasting rooms, shops and landmarks.Afternoon | Lunch at Gott’s Roadside
A trip to wine country is incomplete without a pitstop at Gott’s Roadside. Who can say no to a juicy burger and fries between wine tastings?
Afternoon | Wine Tasting at Hess Persson Estate
Come for the wine, stay for the art collection. Blending world-class wine with an extensive museum gallery of contemporary art, this tasting experience is anything but traditional.
Evening | Pizza Making
Forage for ingredients in the Grange while your little ones feed the chickens. Then, reconvene to make the perfect pizza. My go-to toppings? Sungold tomatoes, freshly picked herbs and lots of cheese. Learn more
Jour 3
Morning | Shopping
I could spend hours treasure hunting at Napa’s farmers markets and boutiques. Visit Stanly’s Village Market to check out Farmer Nick’s latest harvest, or swing by St. Helena’s Main Street to shop one-of-a-kind antiques.Afternoon | Oakville Grocery
From gourmet goodies to superior sandwiches, Oakville Grocery is an institution for elevated picnic essentials. Pro tip: Take yours to go and explore wine country’s picturesque parks and hikes.
Afternoon | Picnic at Bothe-Napa Valley State Park
Perfect for a quick dip, a peaceful nature walk or a picnic under towering evergreen trees, this park is a natural playground fit for the whole family.
Evening | Dinner at Farmstead
Long summer nights call for alfresco dining on Farmstead’s outdoor patio. For optimal enjoyment, pair with your favorite cocktail, a seasonal salad and cheddar biscuits for the table.
