Hit Regusci if you have a chance. Smaller wine maker but amazing cabs. Cakebread actually recommended these guys for Cabs when we asked where else to go.

I highly recommend Duckhorn and Rutherford the next time you're visiting Napa. Two outstanding wine producers.

I am a big fan of the Mondavi Reserve cabs. Been there a few times, they have one of the best tours in the valley. Last time I was there, we did a reserve cab vertical '79, '89, '99. The reserve cabs are some of the best from any US producer.
Cheers and enjoy, GH

Great pictures. Hope you will post many more.
Cakebread Cellars is my favorite winery to visit in Napa. If you are headed to Sonoma, Copola is another fantastic winery to check out. |

Nice! Thank you for sharing! Napa is a special place and a real treat. I've only been there once, but I hope to go back someday. P.S. Love the BLNR too! Mine hasn't left my wrist since I bought it. :-)

PlumpJack is a "fun" winnery if you ever get tired of the commercial places.
Opus One and Caymus are tasty as well...
