City/town information
Small but engaging downtown with several wine tasting rooms and a number of fantastic restaurants (tough choices!). Nearby breweries include Berryessa Gap and Green River Tap Room. Be sure to drive the scenic route to get there: Cantelow Road to Pleasants Valley Road (named after the Pleasants family of long ago).
