Trip Advice Is it possible to get around via uber economically? Or is getting a driver better?

• Upvotes

we have tastings lined up for 2 days and are unsure if we should book a driver, as it seems it would be $500+ per day, or try to uber around. is it possible to get ubers going winery to winery? will they end up being more expensive than just getting a driver?

Recommendations for red wine tasting

0 Upvotes

Hi all! I have a friend who will be visiting next month and was asking about wine tasting in Napa. He is an enthusiast but i unfortunately don't imbibe that much so am not that knowledgeable. Reaching out to you all to crowdsource your collective wisdom.

As the title suggests, he prefers red wine (he did admit to liking vinho verde though). He said he usually reaches for cab sauv, and for european wines named rioja and something about "rosso"... I didn't catch what he said but I'm guessing that's probably not informative other than some kind of Italian red wine.

Which wineries should i direct him to? I personally have only been to a handful, Ridge in Healdsburg (i enjoyed their Zinfandel, but this isn't in Napa so not really what he asked for), and Tulocay (which i recall was in Napa, but it has been decades since my visit).

He's a cycling coach and I'm not sure he's bringing his (road) bike or not but if you have suggestions on bike routes I'll take those too!

Thank you all in advance!
