Honeymooning in Napa Valley

June 13th, 2007 by Debbie

My husband and I just got back from celebrating our anniversary in Napa Country and had a wonderful trip.  The idolic location makes it an ideal spot for celebrating a honeymoon or significate anniversary or birthday. 

We stayed at the beautiful, Wine Country Inn and met several couples on their honeymoon. The inn is located on a hill overlooking the vineyards.  There are beautiful flower beds throughout the grounds, plus a secluded swimming pool.

While we were there we visited a few wineries, including the new Castello di Amorosa winery.  This winery was built in the style of a Tuscany castle and was well worth the tour.  The owner, Daryl Sattui, spend years researching the design and hired expert stone craftsman to ensure an authentic look.  Throughout the castle, are orginial doors, stonework, and artwork from Tuscany.  The castle even has a church and it has been rumored in the future it may be possible to get married in the castle’s chapel.

When planning our trip, we used NapaValley.com to find lodging, restaurants, etc.  Two restuarants that I would recomend are the Rutherford Grill and Tra Vigne
