Napa Valley (Wine Country)

Are you sure the gf wouldn't rather just have a herf at Bob's house? Somebody could bring some wine by?

I'd probably fly into Sacramento if I could, same distance as Oakland but less traffic and no bridges. I live a stone's throw from Napa and that's they airport I try to use.

Can't help you on the wineries, don't drink the stuff.

Sacramento is the most convenient, but less flights so cost may be an issue. Oakland has a few more flights and is also about an hour away. San Francisco is about 80-90 minutes away but lots more flights so might be cheaper.

Wineries are everywhere. Are you looking for a nice tour, impressive winery or fantastic(read expensive) wine? What kind of wine do you like?

Hotels, in season are crazy expensive. Look for some deals on the net. Lots of B&B's if that is your pleasure.

Smoking is limited due to strict Cali laws. Bring smokes as there are only a couple of shops and high taxes.
