About Napa
Wine and food are best known in the Napa region, but the landscape cannot be ignored. Whether driving down Silverado Trail or Highway 29 there are breathtaking views of the Napa vineyards, mustard fields and vibrant flowers. Just yesterday the sky turned a steel gray and the bright green colors of the vines popped out of the landscape. You could stop anywhere in the Napa Valley and have an amazing photo shoot.
