indulge in all things wine and food.&nbsp;&nbsp;We chose to fly into San Francisco, but would likely choose Sacramento the next time.&nbsp;&nbsp;We were fortunate to stay on points at a&nbsp;<a

in Fairfield, California just outside of Napa, which was perfect for us and allowed more money to be spent on wine tasting &amp; tours, and of course, dinners!  We tend to opt for cost-effective accommodations (or free with points) and splurge on experiences and memories while traveling.&nbsp;&nbsp;We headed to Napa Valley in October, 2019,  which was coordinated with the annual grape harvest.  This is actually one of the busiest warm months to visit the area.  &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Napa Valley is home to more than 500 wineries spread across six quaint towns including Napa, Yountville, Oakville, Rutherford, St. Helena and Calistoga.&nbsp;&nbsp;I swear you could take multiple trips to this small slice of heaven and see, taste and experience something new each time.&nbsp;&nbsp;Beautiful vineyards rolling over the golden hills of the Sunshine state, five-star farm-to-table restaurants with the most epic wine lists (bigger than the menus!) and family-owned boutique wineries to larger, older and more popular ones.&nbsp;&nbsp;It truly is a utopia, cheers Napa!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Where to Taste<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.robertmondaviwinery.com\/\">Robert Mondavi<\/a>&nbsp;\u2013 According to Mondavi \u2013 \u201cWine to me is passion.&nbsp;&nbsp;It\u2019s family and friends.&nbsp;&nbsp;It\u2019s warmth of heart and generosity of spirit.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;This winery has graceful arches among the sprawling mission-style buildings.&nbsp;&nbsp;Offering tours &amp; tastings, tasting rooms and lunch and dinner experiences, there is something for everyone\u2019s budget.&nbsp;&nbsp;Being Cabernet Sauvignon fans, we booked the Kalon Terroir Tasting which is one hour in length.&nbsp;&nbsp;During this tasting you have an opportunity to enjoy three vintage Cabernet Sauvignons Reserves and one in limited-time production.&nbsp;&nbsp;These wines are paired with seasonal bites created by Chef Jeff Moshet.&nbsp;&nbsp;Lemoire \u2013 Party of 2 \u2013 your exclusive tasting awaits you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped\"><li

winemaking tradition.&nbsp;&nbsp;Making good wine is a skill, but making fine wine is an art!&nbsp;&nbsp;This is an expansive property with a 17-room Rhine House mansion, a re-creation of the family home located on the Rhine River in Germany.&nbsp;&nbsp;We had hoped to book the Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Grand Tasting, but there was a wedding that day, so that tasting was unavailable.&nbsp;&nbsp;This vineyard offers only five, yes five, weddings a year.&nbsp;&nbsp;We were able to get a sneak peak of the bridal party getting pictures done \u2013 what a dream come true \u2013 getting married at a winery with a live band.&nbsp;&nbsp;So, instead we booked the one hour Taste of Beringer Tour which included a brief tour of the property, a guide to the sensory garden to understand what herbs and spices are incorporated into the wine and a wine and food pairing in the historic Rhine house.&nbsp;&nbsp;Seasonal culinary treats were paired with a flight of reserve wines embodying the traditional seductive flavour that Napa Valley wines are known for.&nbsp;&nbsp;We opted to extend our stay at this winery, ordering a glass of our favourite vintage from the tour and making our way to the gardens to enjoy the live music which is offered on Saturdays.&nbsp;&nbsp;An absolutely perfect way to spend a sunny fall afternoon in Napa.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div

tree-lined road lies the 240 acre estate which is framed by the dramatic palisades to the east.&nbsp;  The 19<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;century stone winery and Victorian Manor House is surrounded by vineyards divided into 23 blocks, where each grape is matched perfectly to its ideal soil type.&nbsp;&nbsp;It certainly explains why they have a reputation for elegant wines.&nbsp;&nbsp;My first exposure to a bottle of Stags\u2019 Leap was in 2015 at a French Bistro in Washington, DC and four years later I was touring this winery.&nbsp;  Dreams do come true.  Keep in mind there is no option for drop-ins and tastings are by appointment only.&nbsp;&nbsp;This was my favourite winery in Napa, likely because of the peaceful tranquil setting and off the beaten path location \u2013 completely our style.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We booked the Estate Tour and Tasting which is 90 minutes in length, offering the history of the estate with fascinating stories of how this winery came to be.&nbsp;&nbsp;I thoroughly enjoyed strolling the property, learning of how it rotated between a winery, a fashionable country resort, a speakeasy during Prohibition for bootleggers and gangsters and now to the winery it is today.&nbsp;&nbsp;The tour ends with a tasting in the Manor House where you have an opportunity to sip their elegant vintages combing finesse with intensity.&nbsp;&nbsp;A truly unique and memorable experience.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1156-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"2611\" data-link=\"http:\/\/explorewithelisha.azurewebsites.net\/index.php\/napa-the-perfect-napa-valley-itinerary-for-first-time-visitors\/img_1156\/\" class=\"wp-image-2611\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1156-768x1024.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1156-225x300.jpg 225w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1156-665x887.jpg 665w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1156-195x260.jpg 195w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1156-750x1000.jpg 750w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1156-450x600.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1150-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"2613\" data-link=\"http:\/\/explorewithelisha.azurewebsites.net\/index.php\/napa-the-perfect-napa-valley-itinerary-for-first-time-visitors\/img_1150\/\" class=\"wp-image-2613\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1150-768x1024.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1150-225x300.jpg 225w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1150-665x887.jpg 665w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1150-195x260.jpg 195w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1150-750x1000.jpg 750w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1150-450x600.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1146-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"2614\" data-link=\"http:\/\/explorewithelisha.azurewebsites.net\/index.php\/napa-the-perfect-napa-valley-itinerary-for-first-time-visitors\/img_1146\/\" class=\"wp-image-2614\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1146-768x1024.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1146-225x300.jpg 225w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1146-665x887.jpg 665w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1146-195x260.jpg 195w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1146-750x1000.jpg 750w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1146-450x600.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1170-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2612\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1170-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1170-150x150.jpg 150w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1170-300x300.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1170-768x768.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1170-100x100.jpg 100w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1170-665x665.jpg 665w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1170-260x260.jpg 260w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1170-200x200.jpg 200w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/IMG_1170-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Where to Eat<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wherever you end up, you won\u2019t leave hungry or disappointed.&nbsp;&nbsp;There are endless five-star fine dining restaurants and prestigious Michelin-rated options to choose from.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oakvillegrocery.com\/\">Oakville Grocery<\/a>&nbsp;\u2013 A traditional country store with a twist, this is a happening little spot.&nbsp;&nbsp;They offer patio dining and a range of food choices including sandwiches, salads, and pizza along with wine and beer on tap.&nbsp;&nbsp;A perfect spot to grab lunch, tour the store and indulge in the outdoor patio.&nbsp;&nbsp;D and I shared the turkey pesto artisan sandwich with a salad along and some sparkling water.&nbsp;&nbsp;We decided to save the wine until our first tour &amp;
