What the day feels like
What the day feels like
Morning pickup in San Francisco sets the tone for a calm, curated day: a private vehicle ushers you out of the city toward either Sonoma or Napa, where your sommelier guides three focused tastings at small estates. The pacing and winery choices are personalized to your palate, and the emphasis is on quality wines and expert context rather than a high‑volume itinerary.
