Escape the city entirely for a full-day private journey into Napa Valley's storied wine country — cave tastings, winemaker introductions, and a vineyard lunch with Carneros views, all curated for a luxury palate.
What to expect
Your chauffeured vehicle departs the Embarcadero and crosses the Bay Bridge into rolling vine-covered hills within 90 minutes. The day typically takes in two or three estates — a historic stone winery with cave ageing tunnels, a family-run hilltop property with valley-floor views, and a farm-to-table lunch paired with estate wines. Your guide weaves together the science of terroir, the drama of the 1976 Judgement of Paris, and the personalities of the winemakers you meet.
Good to know
This excursion suits port days where all-aboard is 7 PM or later — confirm timing before booking. A Taste of SF handles all estate reservations; you simply arrive. The drive is approximately 75–90 minutes each way; a cooler bag for any bottles purchased is a welcome touch your guide will arrange.
