Bouchaine Vineyards
Tucked away in the far southern reaches of the Carneros, Bouchaine is one of the oldest wineries in the region. In continuous operation since the 1920s, the winery’s signature is its turreted barn. Nearly impossible to find without a map, magnifying glass and some serious navigational skills, folks who end up on the relaxing covered porch overlooking the vineyards have clearly sought out this little spot of rustic solace.
Tasting room staff couldn’t be more tickled to see you, and the wines are equally approachable. Edging the Napa River and cooled by the nearby San Pablo Bay, Carneros is one of the cooler regions of Napa, focused on pinot noir and chardonnay. The latter is one of Bouchaine’s strong-suits, and you’ll want to taste through their different styles. Best bet: Order up a Table for Two ó a picnic basket filled with wine and food ready for you to leisurely enjoy on the porch.
