CALIFORNIA DREAMERS FROM around the world have fond memories of the
Golden State, from expeditions on the Hollywood Walk of Fame to San Diego
beachside runs and life-altering meals in San Francisco. But California's wine
country—in particular, Napa and Sonoma counties—holds a special place in
the global imagination, with its golden sunsets over lush vineyard holdings and
leisurely afternoons spent tasting some of the best wines the state has to offer.
