Silverado Trail Vineyards
Napa, CA
The Silverado Trail runs 29 miles along the eastern edge of Napa Valley, paralleling Highway 29 with less traffic and more intimate vineyard views. The road passes through a continuous corridor of vineyards with the Vaca Mountains as a backdrop to the east. Fall foliage transforms the grapevines into brilliant shades of gold, orange, and red from late October through November.
