Wine tastings, tours, and tram rides – Sterling Vineyards has it all!
I arrived to the Silver Experience tasting in style via their aerial tram ride. Once exiting the tram, I was handed a lovely glass of Chardonnay and then strolled into the tasting room for a seated wine tasting featuring the following selection of limited-release wines: 2015 Russian River Pinot Noir, 2014 Rockpile Zinfandel, and 2013 Winemakers Select Red Blend. A beautiful cheese and charcuterie board was brought to the table that paired perfectly with the wines. Very delicioso!
After the tasting, I toured the grounds to view the winery’s Greek-style architecture, art collection, and gorgeous outdoor terrace set high in the hills. Exhibits from the Sterling Art Collection, include originals by Picasso, Chagall, Renior, and the Ansel Adams photograph, “The Story of a Winery.”
For my weekend getaway to Napa Valley, I packed many Luisa Spagnoli clothing items and accessories, including the trench coat and handbag I wore to Sterling Vineyards. The Luisa Spagnoli brand is great for curating one’s own perfect travel wardrobe because it creates beautifully coordinated pieces that work from the inside out and the outside in, for easy layered looks. Being a girl on the go, I love that Luisa Spagnoli uses fabrics that travel easily and do not wrinkle, such as, light wools and natural fiber viscose. Luisa Spagnoli creates beautiful accessories and bags that perfectly complement each seasonal collection. When wearing Luisa Spagnoli, you always look like you have a personal stylist curating your every look!
