Labor Day Weekend in Napa

In and around Napa, United States

We booked a long weekend trip for Napa during Labor Day weekend taking the chance that it wouldn't be too crowded or too hot.  It turned out to be a perfect weekend of exploring and tasting lots of wine.

It was our first time to Napa and Napa Valley and we chose to stay in Napa.  On Friday, we visited Napa's downtown tasting rooms.  On Saturday, we visited Artesa, V. Sattui, Del Dotto and Van Der Heyden.  On Sunday, we visited Plumpjack, Mondavi, and Cakebread.

I read the book "A Moveable Thirst" before our trip and it helped me learn a lot about wine and wine making.  It is a great book that is informative and funny at the same time.  This book goes through 2 guys' personal experience at several tasting rooms, but then will break away to educate you about wine.
