Riding up Highway 1 across 35 down the Great Highway we made our way towards the Golden Gate Bridge by way of the coast. The fog wrapped around the tips of the towers, embracing them with a white mist. The trip down highway 101 led us toward highway 37 and past Sears Point Raceway where we continued down highway 29 towards Napa. It was a perfect day for riding the motorcycle in the Napa valley making for a comfortable and pleasing trip as we stopped at Luna winery to meet up with my cousins Karl and Melinda.
The Luna winery was very inviting form the moment we pulled into the parking lot. The warm colors of the court yard and building made for a relaxing and cozy experience. As we entered the beautiful wooden doors we were greeted with smiles by Kathy. The warm dark colors and exposed wooden ceiling drew us in and towards the couch in the entry way were we placed our riding gear and continued to relax as we waited for the rest of the group to show up. The hospitality at Luna’s was fabulous and we spent most of the afternoon tasting some of their extraordinary wine out of their patio. If you are looking for a pleasant way to taste wine for a minimal cost Luna’s is a great place to stop and enjoy the afternoon.
The next stop was about 10 minutes down the road at Rutherford’s winery. The entry was open and there was plenty of space to spread out and take in the fresh air on the patio or inside in the sun room where 2 large couched and table were set up for a small group to comfortable chat and enjoy their tasting of the wines.
The afternoon passed quickly leaving only time for Luna’s and Rutherford’s winery. So we geared up and made our way back down highway 29 toward Vallejo where we spent the remainder of the night with family and great conversation.
