Napa Valley - Wine Country - City Passport
On this episode of City Passport, our show host Melanie Felice, makes a quick visit to Napa Valley, and shows us a little more than just the wine country that Napa Valley is known for.
OXBOW PUBLIC MARKET
Melanie visits Oxbow Public Market, which is a popular spot where the Napa Valley locals can do their shopping; from fresh fruit, to spices, spirit tasting, to authentic Italian pizza! Learn more about the Oxbow Public Market at:
CA'MOMI PIZZERIA
The pizza at Ca'Momi Pizzeria is a must try when you visit the Oxbow Public Market! It's baked in 90 seconds in the traditional italian fire stove. You will absolutely love it! Visit Ca'Momi's website:
WHOLE SPICE
Whole Spice is quite the unique place to shop for your spices; what ever your flavor is, it's pretty certain that they have it! Visit Whole Spice at:
NAPA VALLEY DISTILLERY
Spirit Tasting is probably not what comes to mind when you think Napa Valley, but Napa Valley Distillery is quite the treat! Melanie took a little break and enjoyed some of their fine selections! Visit them at:
V. SATTUI WINERY
And of course, you can't visit Napa Valley without doing the obvious: wine tasting! We visited the amazing V. Sattui Winery, which happens to be a favorite for our Executive Producer, Tino Martinez, and quickly became one of Melanie's favorites.
We were fortunate to meet some of their amazing staff, and Melanie even got to enjoy a private wine tasting with Danica Sattui, who is a fifth generation Sattui.
Sitting down in one of the private luxurious patios, and enjoying their fine wines was definitely a treat, as Danica talks about the history of V. Sattui Winery.
She was gracious to tour us around the grounds, and talk about the wonderful Napa Valley lifestyle.
To learn more about V. Sattui Winery, visit:
IN CONCLUSION
Our trip to Napa Valley was a short one, but it was one well enjoyed! The amazing landscapes and rolling hills with vineyards was breathtaking!
We definitely will be back and explore more of what Napa Valley has to offer.
Thank you for watching!

Just moved to Napa, CA. This is a compilation of clips from my first week here. California has received record breaking rainfall this season, so flying has been seldom. But when the sun shines, it shines so bright.

Darioush_Winery_FastMix, Darioush Winery, Napa Valley, California, USA
Darioush, a winery noted for its Bordeaux style estate wines, implements old world labor-intensive, micro-vineyard management and new world state of the art technology to craft fine wines from its estates located in the appellations of Napa Valley, Mt. Veeder and Oak Knoll. Under the direction of Darioush Khaledi and winemaker Steve Devitt, precision and quality are of the utmost importance at the winery.
The Property
Darioush welcomes guests to its new visitor center and winery beginning August 16, 2004. The new architectural building comes after five years in the making, and combines materials, castings, and furnishings from distant lands and exotic locations. The 22,000 square foot winery, the first in America to combine architecture, design and Persian culture, provides a unique and exhilarating experience in California's most renowned wine destination. Reminiscent of the great noble architecture that once existed, the imagery of the Darioush building evokes Persepolis, the illustrious capital of ancient Persia.
The Khaledi's Persian heritage is the inspiration and vision for the winery, designed by architects Ardeshir and Roshan Nozari, incorporating clean, contemporary lines with historical references to Persia's ancient capital city. One of the most important aspects of the Persian culture is hospitality, and the winery is designed to create a welcoming, enjoyable as well as a rich and intriguing environment for guests. Visitors will receive unparalleled service and a sensational experience.
The juxtaposition of modern clean lines and historical references represent the philosophy of our office, states Ardeshir Nozari, who incorporated many intriguing architectural elements throughout the building. Among the design features of interest are the 16 monumental 18' freestanding columns with capital bulls, which act as stone trees at the entrance of the winery, elevating visitor expectations. Richly textured travertine-stone cladding surrounds the entire building. This yellow stone was quarried near the region of Persepolis and exported to Turkey and Italy for cutting and tumbling before it reached the Silverado Trail in Napa. Additional design features include pre-cast moldings, furniture, fireplaces, ironwork, lighting, cellars, and an amphitheatre for performances and events.
The Visitor Center boasts a state of the art facility offering a unique one-on-one experience to taste the complete line of signature wines with options for indoor and outdoor seating. Six outdoor water features with fountains and one indoor rolling wall of water comprise some of the sights and sounds of the guest experience. Lush and varied landscaping creates a sequence of continuous gardens, which lead the visitors to the winery.

Ep 26 Napa Valley Wine Tasting - Darioush Winery - Vine Cliff Vineyards - White Collar Vagabond
Jennifer & I celebrated our 1 year anniversary with a trip to the San Francisco Bay area and enjoyed our special day with a trip to Napa Valley with wonderful friends and a wine tasting at the Darioush winery and a fabulous picnic at the Vine Cliff Vineyards.
The Darioush Winery story is wonderful and Frank shared it with us:
The Darioush Story
The opening of the new winery and visitor center is, without a doubt, one of the most exciting moments in my life. Ever since I was a young man, when I began my passion for great wine, I dreamt of this day.
Darioush Khaledi grew up in Shiraz, one of Iran's prominent wine-growing regions. His father was a hobbyist winemaker and as a young boy, Khaledi used to sneak sips from the barrel; as a young adult he became a devoted collector of fine wines.
Trained as a civil engineer and with a career in construction, Darioush left Iran in the late 1970's and emigrated to Southern California where he was faced with the challenge of rebuilding his life. Darioush and his brother-in-law pooled their resources and purchased a failing grocery store in the city of Los Angeles. Now thirty years later, together they operate one of the most successful independently owned grocery businesses in the United States, which alone employs over 1500 people.
As the success of his grocery business grew, his passion for fine wine transformed from collector to producer. No longer was Darioush interested solely in collecting the world's finest wines he was driven to create hand-crafted wines with the highest quality standards.
Darioush is the culmination of the worldwide search for the ultimate vineyard estate. The Darioush Estate's ninety-five acres are planted to Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Merlot, Malbec, Petit Verdot, Chardonnay and Viognier.
Nestled in a quiet canyon above the Silverado Trail in the world famous Napa Valley stand the breathtaking vineyards of Vine Cliff Winery. Known for rich, full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignons from the treasured Oakville Appellation and bold Chardonnays from the acclaimed Carneros District, Vine Cliff Winery prides itself on small lots of intensely flavored, hand-made wines.
Downtown Napa
Originally established in 1847 by Nathan Coombs, the town-site of Napa at that time centered around the Napa River, a main transportation hub then. Napa was a popular area for people to winter due to the mild climate. Napa is the largest city in Napa Valley according to the 2014 U.S. Census Bureau with 80,011 people as well as the lead city of the county. Sitting at the southern end of the Valley a former starting point for wine country visitors, Napa has now transformed into a world-class destination of its own.
