How many wineries can we visit in Carneros in one day?

A sparkling-wine opener plus two valley or Sonoma stops — the easiest same-day-arrival itinerary in wine country. Two to three reserved tastings is the honest maximum if you also want lunch — most tasting appointments run 60 to 90 minutes.

Which vehicle is best for Carneros?

Carneros roads are open and flat, so every vehicle in the fleet works here, including the 14-passenger Sprinter. Every vehicle carries luggage and wine cases, and your chauffeur loads and secures purchases at each stop.

Do you book the Carneros tasting appointments?

We help sequence and time them around drive distances so the day actually works, and we hold the schedule on the road. Reservations are made in your name — tasting rooms in Napa Valley require the guest of record, and we do not claim partnerships we do not have.

Touring Carneros with a chauffeur

Carneros is the first wine region you reach coming north from San Francisco, which makes it the natural opening or closing stop on almost every itinerary we run. It is also the coolest appellation on this side of the bay, so the wine profile is different from valley-floor Cabernet: sparkling houses, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

Because it borders both counties, Carneros pairs cleanly in either direction — Carneros then Napa Valley, or Carneros then Sonoma Plaza. For groups arriving at SFO or an FBO in the morning, it is the only region where you can be tasting within about ninety minutes of wheels down.
