Explore the Napa Valley Wineries and Indulge in Wine Tasting at St. Helena

There are several Napa Valley wineries in and around St. Helena. Sterling Vineyards is one of the more popular vineyards in St. Helena. There are more than ten estates that draw substantial footfalls most times of the year. Founded by Peter Newton in 1964, Sterling Vineyards is known for wines with rich flavor and aroma. There are various types of grapes found in Napa Valley vineyards and most wineries have their own distinct approach to winemaking. Sterling Vineyards has a tailored gentler approach to working the grapes. Indulge in a bit of Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay, Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir or Shiraz at Sterling.

You should hop aboard the aerial tram when you are at St. Helena. The tram offers unparalleled views of much of Napa Valley. You can take a ride to the hilltop winery. The aerial tram is not only unique and aesthetic but also a utility service. You can take the tram from 1111 Dunaweal Lane in Calistoga. The tram operates from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. You can opt for normal admission or you could sign up for a package that includes wine tasting.
