Napa Valley Harvest Season
California wine country at its most productive and beautiful.
Napa's harvest season transforms the valley from tourist destination to working agricultural landscape. The vineyards glow amber and crimson, the cellars buzz with activity, and winemaker dinners offer the chance to taste wines that won't be released for years.
Why it matters
The season when Napa reveals its true purpose — a working wine region that happens to be one of the world's most beautiful places.
