Setting the stage for your wine country weekend Our Water To Wine tour will introduce a side of Napa few have ever seen, providing context for the region and its proximity to the Pacific Ocean. On this tour, you will learn about world-class wines and the influences that make this such a special place. Alongside a cool breeze blowing up the river, your guide will provide a sense of place, sharing stories and nuances of three distinct growing regions visible in the nearby hills. Your time on the water provides a visceral connection to the Napa River Valley, while your time in the Roots Run Deep tasting salon lets you revisit the terroir in the glass to explore how the marine influence translates to wine flavor.
