Howell Mountain Wine Tasting

Hannah here! (Your other Main Street Sister)
One of the perks of working in a Napa restaurant is that wine tasting at the local wineries is free! Even more exciting is that our sommelier at Brix took us on a tour of three Howell Mountain wineries in Angwin, above the Napa valley. We went to O'Shaughnessy, Cade, and Outpost Wineries, and each was a beautiful and delicious treat!

The view along the road on our drive up. In the valley it was a cold winter day, but on the mountain it was warm and summertime!

The caves at O'Shaughnessy.

We ate a delicious lunch of duck cassoulet and mixed greens salad at Outpost Winery.

The most amazing fountain on the cliff of Cade winery.

The caves of Cade!
