"Wine is bottled poetry"
Robert Louis Stevenson

          Learn about "hand riddling" and other secrets of making fine champagne in the caverns at Schramsberg. Sip fine sparkling wine on the terrace of a French-inspired chateau. Or tour a mountainside vineyard by a tractor-pulled tram. This is the Wine Country you always wanted to see, only better, with unique access via our small ships on peaceful and scenic waterways instead of grid-locked freeways.

     Admire views of the city's evening lights, Alcatraz, and Angel Island as you cruise up the bay. The next morning, fresh and relaxed, you're berthed far up the Napa River, ready for exploration.

     You'll enjoy frequent tastings and interactive  discussions about the history and mystery of wine in between visits ashore to explore distinctive
estates
in Napa Valley, Sonoma and Carneros.

 

   You will enjoy special events, tastings, and meals, frequently in areas of the wineries that are off-limits to the casual drop-in visitor. You'll also have a chance to tour the architectural masterpieces that dominate many of these hillside estates. French chateaux, mission-style, Victorian-the variety is almost as rich as the wines. A wine expert will be on board throughout the whole cruise to enhance your experience, and a variety of special guests will speak as well, from winemakers to hospitality directors.

     This is a journey for both novices and connoisseurs alike who enjoy great scenery, congenial camaraderie and the opportunity to learn more about the culture of the vine.

Spirit of Endeavour, provides the perfect days-end atmosphere - relaxed and casual.
