Art extraordinaire and wine, too |
4411 Redwood Rd (off Hwy 29 near Yountville) Napa Valley, CA 94558 United States +1 877 707 4377 / +1 707 255 1144 http://www.hesscollection.com/ info@hesscollection.com |
Swiss millionaire Donald Hess displays a portion of his magnificent art collection at this renovated Christian Brothers Winery. The original stone structures built in 1903 were retained in the new facility, which also includes an audio-visual room, a 13,000-square-foot art gallery and an upscale store. While the wines are simple by Napa standards, they are both decent and affordable. The winery produces two varietals, chardonnay and cabernet sauvignon, under two different labels: The Hess Collection and the bargain label Hess Select, made with grapes from Monterey County.

Stage it on!! |
1030 Main Street Napa Valley, CA United States +1 707 226 7372 http://www.nvoh.org/ |
Restored in 2003, this magnificent Opera house never knew it would live to see its good old days again. But now, its fate has reversed and restored it stands. With a whole bunch of activities happening in this beautiful place, the ones to look out for would be the play 'I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change'; there is also the Indigo Girls' performance that should not be missed, but the highlight should be 'Elevation 63', which features acrobats from the ages of eight to 21 - this play has a creative outburst that is innovative and compelling. But for those who love their funny bone tickled, do not miss the stand-up comedy competition, or better yet compete in it. Making a fool of yourself could not be more fun. Review © 2007, Wcities |
