<p>Warning - our tour guide at Far Niente was pretentious, but the wines and the car collection were nice. If you like Far Niente, you should try touring Opus One. :)</p>
<p>Of the wineries we liked, here are some, listed here in random order:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Hess Collection. In addition to the tasting room, the winery features a modern art collection display and a lovely garden. Great for place for non-drinkers, too! <a href=“http://www.hesscollection.com/[/url]”>http://www.hesscollection.com/</a></p></li>
<li><p>Domaine Chandon - bubbles. 
and a very pretty, relaxing garden. <a href=“http://m.chandon.com/index.html#/visit_us[/url]”>http://m.chandon.com/index.html#/visit_us</a></p></li>
<li><p>St Supery. You have to try their whites. </p></li>
<li><p>Sterling Vinyards. How can one pass up the wine tour that starts with a scenic air tram ride? The winery is located on the top of a hill overlooking the valley below (and the Culinary Institute campus can be seen in the distance).</p></li>

<li>Mumm - another great bubbly place which has a nice patio where you can sip your drinks and relax. There is a small art or photo exibition in the barn-like building next to the patio. </li>
</ol>
<p>Of course, when it comes to buying wine, everyone loves Raymond’s. :)</p>
