I spent my weekend in Napa Valley and surprisingly it was the first time I visited for wine tasting. Last March I went barrel tasting in Alexander Valley and two years prior I went to Sonoma County so I was pretty excited to finally check out the heart of Wine Country. I was so happy to have a driver take us since I was getting used to being chauffeured around after my birthday. We checked out Honig, Hagafen, Del Dotto, Darioush and Domaine Chandon. So many other wineries I wanted to see like V.Sattui, Jacuzzi, Artesa and Caymus that I'm sure I'll be back in no time. My favorite of course was Honig since their Sauvignon Blanc is awesome and I'm not a big fan of reds but after having their Cab, I may be switching over. Hagafen was interesting since their wines are all kosher, Del Dotto was neat because of the caves and Darioush was just a pretty place to take pictures. Such a fun outing and way to end at Chandon for some bubbly. Oh and be sure to check out Rutherford Grill for some grub-- highly recommended.
