Oakville Weekend Escape
Where better to experience a classic wine country weekend
than in the heart of Napa Valley's Oakville District?
Arrive at the beautiful Franciscan Estate Winery—a hallmark
of Napa Valley tradition since 1972—where you will be
greeted by your own personal wine educator and led on a tour
of the winery's history. Next, armed with the tools
necessary to create a 100-point wine, you and your guests
will compete to master the blending of a Meritage,
specifically the Franciscan Estate Magnificat.
With a win under your belt, you will be whisked away to
Franciscan Estate's Oakville vineyard for a bicycle tour.
Explore the vineyard on two wheels (or two feet, if you
prefer!) and taste the wines amongst their vines, some of
the finest blocks of grapes in the Napa Valley. Finally,
you and your guests will be led down the vineyard paths to
the Oakville Estate House, where Chef Cory Strike will be
waiting to tempt your taste buds with foods artfully
prepared to complement a selection of reserve and library
wines.
With your bellies full and your senses relaxed, you can then
drift off to sleep in the East Room or the West Room, with
the chirping of crickets and the whisper of gentle breezes
lulling you and yours into a deep and restful sleep!
