Wine tastings are some of the hightlights of living in California, but sometimes 48 hours isn’t enough for a quick jaunt to SFO and then heading off to wine country.

Problem solved, with The Press Room at The Four Seasons Hotel in San Francisco. Now, a weekend up North can be complete with some of Napa and Sonoma Valley’s best wineries taking up shop in the subterranean tasting room. Try some of Napa’s favorites such as Pahlmeyer, Miner Family and (my personal favorite) Chateau Montelena. From Sonoma comes Landmark Vineyards, Mount Eden, Fritz, Saintsbury and Hanna.

Dubbed as an “urban tasting room”, experience the full wine-tasting experience with representatives from each winery, tasting bays, social sipping lounges and a full retail store. Try the bite size menu with wine-complimenting “tasting trios”, charcuterie and cheeses as you admire the super modern concrete floors, walnut paneling and teak tables.
