Treat Mom to a Day (or weekend) in Wine Country

  • Apr 29, 2021
  • By The Vineyard Vixen

Spend a day with mom in wine country. Whether she's all about fitness and wellness or more about the wine and culinary indulgence it can be all found in wine country.

Yes it's true, April has pretty much come and gone already and that means Mother's Day is coming up. This is the perfect time of year to plan a jaunt to wine country and spoil Mom. It's not cold, it's not hot- and there's not a lot of high-season traffic that will wreck your travel plans.

Give her a little "me time" by starting the day with Yogalates, a hybrid of Yoga + Pilates at the stunning Meritage Resort in Napa Valley.  Afterward, grab lunch at The Boon Fly Café before heading into downtown Sonoma for an afternoon of wine tasting and shopping in the famed Sonoma Square.  The gold rush era buildings that are home to the dozens of shops, tasting rooms, and restaurants provide charming character and fantastic photo ops to litter your Insta with drool worthy pics.  There's no wonder why visitors from all over the world flock to this iconic destination.

One of my favorite tasting rooms is Westwood Estate located in downtown Sonoma. The reclaimed wood panels and soft leather sofas give a rustic-chic vibe that makes you want to linger all day. But, it's their luscious hand-crafted Pinot Noir that has me dreaming of my next visit.

Whether you choose to spend a day or the whole weekend, wine country is a great place to celebrate mom.   Read on for more winery, lodging and restaurant ideas to make this Mother's Day one of the most memorable ever.
