Fall Harvest
Fall is harvest time in the wine country. From September through October, the vines are heavy with grapes and are being picked and selected for each of the varietals. This season is both crucial in the wine industry and exciting for wine enthusiasts. And for many wineries it’s a chance to celebrate with special events and festivals.
We’ve selected some of the local favorites as well as some popular vineyards in both Napa Valley and Sonoma Valley to help you create your own wine adventure. Whether you like crisp white wines, or bold cabernets, there is a wine and vineyard here for you.
While visiting the Northern California wine country, be sure to explore the towns, as Napa and Sonoma offer much more than the rolling hills and wineries. They offer charming town squares, great hospitality and amazing food.
Peruse through our selections of wineries, places to stay, places to eat and things to do. We’ve done all the hard work for you, so all you have to do is, sniff, swirl, sip, savor and enjoy.
