Setting the stage for your wine country weekend

Our Water to Wine tour will introduce a side of Napa few have ever seen, providing context for the region and its proximity to the Pacific Ocean. On this tour, you will learn of the world-class wines and unique influences that make this such a special place. Alongside a cool breeze blowing up the river, your guide will provide a sense of place, sharing history, culture, and marine-influenced wines harvested from three distinct wine regions visible in the nearby hills.

Your time on the water provides a visceral connection to the Napa River Valley. In contrast, your time in the Roots Run Deep tasting salon lets you revisit the terroir in your glass after the paddle to explore how it all translates to wine flavor!

About the Napa River

 The Napa River is a meeting place—where fresh and salt water converge; where fish, birds, and animals comingle; and where the histories and cultures of generations of people blend and flow, twisting and turning like the living river itself. 

"From these volcanic soils, natives chiseled arrowheads where vineyards grow today.  Roots that ebb & flow each growing season, penetrating volcanic rock toward the water table below.  This river and its raging waters are essential to produce wines of perfection from a diverse range of grapes harvested from Napa’s world-famous vines."       - Drew Dickson, owner/winemaker NVP
