Napa Valley

What a delight Napa Valley was. The amass of rolling hills covered in vineyards, the good nature of the people there, the incredible food and wine.  You don't often here of the great food in Napa, but they really had the best food. We stayed at the Westin Verasa Resort in the heart of Napa.  As soon as we arrived we walked through the town and enjoyed a nice wine tasting.  While there, we met some locals who told us of a few good restaurants in the area, one of which was Bottega, Michael Chiarello's establishment in Yountville.  We were lucky enough to snag last minute reservations due to someone cancelling and oh goodness am I grateful. It was out of this world - I recommend it in a heartbeat.

The next day we ventured to Swanson Vineyards for a lovely wine tasting. Most of the pictures below are from this place.  For someone who appreciates those small details, Swanson does not disappoint.
