St. Helena and the surrounding Napa Valley holds a very special place in our hearts, as it was the first place Thomas told Kimberly that he loved her! The city of St. Helena rests between Yountville and Calistoga on Highway 29. Here's a small sampling of the fun things you can do in the area.

 

 

SIP

Nestled amid the vine-draped upvalley hills, St. Helena is the charming and welcoming heart of the Napa Valley. Winemaking began here in the 1800s. Today, the wineries in St. Helena range from powerhouses such as Sutter Home and Louis Martini to critically acclaimed small producers including Corison, Spottswoode and Vineyard 29.
