I stayed a week…read morewhile at a conference and found the sparkling salt pool overlooking exquisite vineyards and cantering thoroughbreds the perfect ending to very long days. The breakfast is amazing with local eggs and toast and much more served in their elegant southwestern style dining room and porches. I stayed in the Rustridge Room, with its semi-private entrance. I found it enchanting and spacious, with an unusual barn door...the top half opened right up to a small grassy knoll and ancient tree, extending a mighty bough, worthy of a Cheshire cat. There is a sense of timelessness here, a respect for time, for animals, and the land itself---many of the vines are mature, even 30-years old if I remember my private wine tasting correctly. Yes, that is the other element here: aromatic hand-crafted wines made in small batches by Susan and Jim. To sip fine vintages in their tasting room, with its windows overlooking sweeping vineyards, the grapes ripening before one's eyes, is an unparalleled experience. Thank you Jim and Susan for revealing to me and to all of us "the true Napa" and for the many laughs and conversations we all had. Kymberly T.

This is a great Napa winery that is off the beaten path. It is located about 15 minutes off the…read moreSilverado Trail, past a charming lake then up a windy road. Not a winery to hit near the end of the day unless you have a dedicated designated driver. If you appreciate rustic style tasting rooms where you can actually speak with the wine makers about their wines then you will enjoy this place. Wine consists of cabs, zins and a chard. I left with a couple reds. Loves the eccentric wine maker; aside from his growing duties he is also a horse jockey. So yes, the tasting room is located in a ranch filled with horses. The horse jockey wine maker signed our bottles and posed for my picture like nobody's business.

I would highly recommend Jewels Wine Tours to anyone looking for a driver in Napa Valley. The…read moreconvenience and affordability of having a driver pick you up in the morning at your hotel/ rental home, in your rental car (which you are presumably already paying for), and providing personalized wine tours is unbeatable. Not to mention, Ryan is a great guy who shows an ability to appeal to any crowd. Background: A group of six of us (three couples) rented a Tahoe at SFO airport and a home in Green Valley (about 30 mins from Napa) for the week. We used Jewels Wine Tours for three consecutive days of wine tasting throughout the valley. We supplied jewels with a list of wineries we wanted to visit over the three days. Pros: Jewels scheduled all of our wine tastings and tours for us. All we had to do was supply them with a list of places we wanted to visit. Their knowledge of the valley (travel times) and how long you spend at each winery (varies greatly from winery to winery) allowed us to optimize our time while staying on a comfortable schedule. Ryan picked us up at our home each morning, promptly at our agreed-upon time (9:00-10:00 varying by day). He was always right on time. He showed up with an ice chest so we could pack picnic stuff and water if we wanted to. While driving through the valley, he was happy to provide as much or as little dialog, opinion, and/or commentary as we desired. He was great as a sounding board for comments/ questions throughout the day as we made our way from stop to stop. He even took the time to look some things up when he didn't know the answers off the top of his head. He seems to know tons of people throughout the valley and is able to provide the 'inside scoop.'. He also suggested several wineries and lunch/Dinner places which we thoroughly enjoyed. Ryan was careful to make sure we stayed on schedule... Time flies when your having fun/ drinking wine. He always stayed with the vehicle during our tastings to keep the car safe and cool to make sure our wine purchases stayed in great shape. Each night he dropped us off back at our house with our rental car. One night he even ran us by the grocery store as none of us were in any kind of shape to be driving. Cons: n/a All in all, there really is no other way to see napa valley when considering great service, convenience and value. You will not be disappointed. Two thumbs up!
