A Trip to the Napa Valley and Lake Berryessa

We had a wonderful fun filled 2 days with friends this weekend. The first day we had lunch at Tra Vigne restaurant in St. Helena. The food was fabulous, I had the olive oil marinated soft and creamy mozzarella cheese with toasted french bread. We also had a memorable pizzeta with blue cheese.



I would highly recommend this restaurant if you are in Napa. We then toured the Sterling Vineyard winery in Calistoga with the beautiful views of the valley. But my favorite stop was the Nichelini winery in St. Helena. It is a historic small family owned winery with a colorful history.





We then had another great meal at a local restaurant at Lake Berryessa, Cucina Italiana, a small hidden gem with a chef from Italy who makes meals with sauces that are awesome! What can I say but MMMM Good!
The only thing left to top off a great 2 days was waking up to this view.
