Wine Country: World-Class, Right in Your Backyard

Napa, Sonoma, and Healdsburg — the getaway that doesn't require a passport.

You don't have to cross an ocean for an extraordinary wine-and-food escape — Napa, Sonoma, and Healdsburg deliver it within an hour of San Francisco. I design Wine Country trips for clients celebrating something, unwinding for a long weekend, or hosting out-of-town guests who want the real thing: private tastings, chef-driven tables, and properties that feel worlds away without the jet lag.

Why Wine Country

Napa, Sonoma, and Healdsburg each have their own personality. Napa is polished and iconic — legendary estates, Michelin-starred dining, and some of the most recognizable wineries in the world. Sonoma is looser and more pastoral, with acclaimed wineries set among rolling hills and a slower, more relaxed pace. Healdsburg blends the two — a walkable, food-obsessed town square surrounded by some of the region's most exciting up-and-coming producers. Knowing which town, which valley, and which properties fit your style is where the trip comes together.

Featured Experiences

  • Private Tastings — Appointment-only wineries and cellar experiences you can't just walk into.

  • Culinary Escapes — Michelin-starred dining, farm-to-table tables, and chef's counter experiences across all three towns.

  • Boutique Luxury Stays — Hillside resorts, wine-estate cottages, and design-forward inns matched to your style and budget.
