Indulge in the crown jewels of Napa Valley with this experience of a lifetime: VIP access to the region's most exclusive wineries and experiences that you won't find anywhere else.

This three-day trip for three couples starts off with a private lunch at Morlet's Coeur Du Vallee Vineyard hosted by owner and winemaker Luc Morlet. The tasting will include a lunch paired with specialty Morlet wines including some of the rarest Chardonnays, Pinot and Cabernets in California. Later that evening, attend a private dinner hosted by Landon Patterson at Solage in Calistoga. Dinner will include a selection of owner-winemaker, Jayson Woodbridge's, private library wines from Hundred Acre - many with 100-point scores.

Start the following day with a tour of one of the Grand Cru's of Napa Valley-Opus One. This tasting will include a VIP tour and tasting at the estate, as well as a lunch hosted by Master Sommelier Chris Blanchard. In the afternoon, you will be treated to a VIP tasting at Gandona Estate on Pritchard Hill with Adam Casto, critically acclaimed winemaker. Adam will guide you through a tour of the vineyards on this unique property followed by a series of a ten-vintage vertical tasting of acclaimed Gandona Cabernet Sauvignon.

On the final day of your stay, enjoy a behind-the-scenes tour and tasting at Memento Mori, whose cabernets are considered some of the finest in the valley. Principal Adam Craun will take you on a journey through the Memento Mori experience and look at the estate's past, present, and future. The final tasting experience of the weekend will be with Phillippe Melka, world-renowned winemaker and winemaking consultant. Phillipe was once the winemaker at iconic winery Chateau Petrus and now owns his own wine brand, Melka Estates. Your experience at Melka will include a tour of some of the most heralded vineyards in Napa Valley and you'll learn why he is considered the French superstar of American winemaking.
