Oh! And I forgot to include these in the video, but here’s 3 tips that really helped us enjoy Napa better: 1. Make your reservations ahead of time. These tastings get booked up pretty quickly on weekends and you don't want to miss out on the best spots because you didn't plan ahead. 2. Don’t forget about transportation. One winery can be a bit of a drive away from the next, so try to schedule your visits starting with the northern-most place and working your way down or vice versa. Also, determine whether you want to rely on Ubers, hire your own driver, etc. 3. Please make time to eat! The cheese and crackers are cool, but you really need a full breakfast and lunch to get through all the wine you’re going to drink in Napa. Trust. 😉
Gyrlllllllll I’m even more excited following you ladies. I wrote down everything. I’m going in June but I’m def adding the wine train tour too . Thx for vlog yall was cute
Ladiesssss, y’all are giving ! 😍✨ also, I’m not a wine connoisseur, but anything sweet is for me ! 😋🍷 & omggg, that food was looking so good. Loved this video ! 🫶🏽
Ooh that's gonna be so nice. I haven't hit the Sonoma area yet but it's next on my list! Definitely don't play yourself like me and try to hit too many in a day though 😂
Hello beautiful! I will be going to Napa in April. Thank you for sharing your itinerary for this is very helpful. The Castello di Amorosa looks like a beautiful place to check out. Do you remember which tasting you selected? Thank you in advance for your help!
Yes, we made a dry blend at Raymond! And it depends on your budget for transportation. We drove my car to Napa and then took Uber from place to place because neither of us wanted to be the designated driver. However, each ride ended up being $30-40. Another option if you have a large group is to book a private van through a local driving service and split the cost that way!
What a great vid. This looks like such a great day out it's just a shame I'm on the otherside of the world otherwise I would have checked it out. I love a cheeky Merlot every now and again.
Napa hotels tend to be on the expensive end (at least for my budget), so we decided to go with an Airbnb for this trip and spent under half of what we would've at most of the nearby hotels! I will say you might want to book accommodations after you figure out which wineries you're going to because Napa Valley is so spread out

Loved this thank you!!!! it was so refreshing to see Black women vlogging about Napa wine tastings as well. Im glad I found this as I plan.
Yesss, we definitely need more of us showing our experiences in these wine regions! So happy you enjoyed the video and have a great time in Napa sis 🎉

Glad this was helpful love! I booked the Diamond Estate Tour & Reserve Wine Tasting, hope you enjoy your Napa getaway 🥂
Thank you so much!@@KayBrynae
This vlog made me thirsty 😅 I think this is my sign to open our 2021 bottle of wine. Cannot wait for the 5th year any longer 🤪
Haha when the wine is calling, who are we to say no? 😂
Great video can't wait to go back to Napa! Have you tried the Napa Valley Wine Train? I highly recommend.
Thanks for watching! I didn’t get a chance to try the train but sounds like I need to add it to my list 🤗
Planning a trip to Napa, not too far from me. How much was Castello?
Absolutely gorgeous video! Definitely stealing this itinerary. ❤️😍
Thank youu 💕 can’t wait to hear how you like some of these spots!
The wine at Raymond vineyard that you made, was it dry wine? Also would you recommend renting a car to get around or catch Uber?
Yes, we made a dry blend at Raymond! And it depends on your budget for transportation. We drove my car to Napa and then took Uber from place to place because neither of us wanted to be the designated driver. However, each ride ended up being $30-40.

Dope locations! Great content. Thanks! Going in November.
Hope you have the best time! Thanks for watching ☺️
I heard muscadine wine was delicious, try it if you can
Ooh I don’t know too much about muscadine but I’ll have to find out 👀 thanks for the recommendation!
What a great vid. This looks like such a great day out it's just a shame I'm on the otherside of the world otherwise I would have checked it out. I love a cheeky Merlot every now and again.
Definitely worth a trip one day! I’m sure there’s some great wine regions in Australia and NZ that I should be looking to add to my list too 🥂
Great video … trip look like so much fun 💯👌
Thanks for sharing!!🤗
I enjoyed this! I’m planning my trip now! I’ll let you know if i make it to the 4th stop!! Lol 🍷😅
Fingers crossed for you girl 🤞🏽😂 thanks for watching!
The best informative video ever
So glad it was helpful, thanks for watching!
Skin flawless
Thank you! 🥰
This made me laugh haha, love it!
All that wine had us laughing while making this so I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching 💞
Oooh I’ve always wanted to go wine tasting!♥️
It’s such a vibe! I’d definitely carve out a couple days to come up and try it if you’re ever in the Bay
@@KayBrynae most definitely 😊
I lived so close to there for years and never made it up! I definitely need to make a girls trip up there! Are the prices you are showing per person?
Same! I moved to the Bay in 2017 and I’m just now going lol. But yes, definitely make that girls trip happen sooner than later 🤗
And yep, all prices in the video were per person!
Looking great too Queen!♥️
Thank you sis! Appreciate you 🙌🏽💕
@@KayBrynae you’re welcome ☺️
i think th second winery you visited was Castello de Amorosa and not some diamond......could be wrong....BTW great video....really enjoyed it.
Yes, it was! Think I put that at the beginning of the section (2:40) but thanks for watching 😊
Definitely need a trip there after seeing this 🔥🌎
Yes! Napa is really always a good idea 🙌🏽🍷
Nicely done, ladies. Did you go to Sonoma?
We didn't make it to Sonoma this time around, but we're definitely hoping to check out a few wineries there soon!
Any Napa hotel recommendations?
Napa hotels tend to be on the expensive end (at least for my budget), so we decided to go with an Airbnb for this trip and spent under half of what we would've at most of the nearby hotels! I will say you might want to book accommodations after you figure out which wineries you're going to because Napa Valley is so spread out
@@KayBrynae thank you!
Did y’all do Ubers or car rental?
We called Ubers so neither of us would have to drive, but it could add up pretty quickly!
Lol y’all was tipsy by the 3rd winery😂
We should've stopped there, but we just had to try everything 😂
By the 4th they were gone! I wanted to see 5 but now I realize 3-4 lol
