Meadowood Napa Valley
900 Meadowood Lane
St. helena, CA 94574 Map It!
Phone: 800.458.8080
info@meadowood.com
There is a new "must visit" in the Napa Valley.....The Restaurant at Meadowood. Opened in July '06, and with rave reviews in the Wine Spectator, this restaurant is both elegant and intimate. The cuisine is delectable, from the "first bite" to the dessert. The wine list is very deep, offering some of the best wines available in the valley. The staff are wonderfully professional and the ambiance is all-encompassing. In our humble opinion, it will easily stand up to the French Laundry or Cyrus. We highly recommend it!

Wineries
|
| Most of the wineries we recommend are by appointment only. For the sake of
privacy, we ask that you discuss these wonderful, magical places with us
personally. We highly recommend two great mountain wineries that are open to the
public without an appointment. For sparkling wine, there is really only one
place in our book, but you'll need an appointment for this amazing tour! |
