stops and swallows (spitters are quitters)
1930s gas station turned punk-rock wine club. Vintage records on the lift, no two vintages alike, labels look like album art.
Order · Whatever's pouring — they never make the same wine twice.
Working equestrian estate at Sundance Vineyards. Tastings happen between the stables — horses included.
Order · Yountville cabernet flight, hold the pretension.
Family-run Rutherford fixture since '83. Tower tasting room, sculpture gardens, a singing pour-master if you're lucky.
Order · Cabernet Franc and the Provence rosé.
Special Detour · Amy's Pick
Morning Glory Spillway · Monticello Dam · Lake Berryessa
A 72-foot bell-mouth spillway that swallows whole lakes when it overflows. Lake Berryessa's claim to fame. Which Glory Hole we mean is between Amy and Google.
Detour: ~45 min east of Calistoga via CA-128.
