About Carneros
Carneros straddles the southern ends of both Napa and Sonoma. Breezes and fog off San Pablo Bay keep it cooler than the valley floor, which is why the hills here grow elegant Pinot Noir, bright Chardonnay and much of the region's sparkling wine.
It's open, rural and quiet, with sweeping views and terraces made for a glass of bubbles. It also makes a natural stop on the way in from San Francisco.
