LADERA VINEYARD

Perched on Howell Mountain, this is one of Napa's hidden gems. The beautiful brick property dates back to 1886. It is the love of tradition that gives Ladera its soul. From Calistoga to the north, take a left on Deer Park Road and turn left again onto White Cottage Road South. The road will take you off the beaten path on a beautiful mountain road. A very nice site. And to make matters worse, they produce a famous Cabernet Sauvignon, as well as a Pinot Noir and Chardonnay that are also doing quite well.
