How It Works
Scenic Cellars handles winery selection, restaurant recommendations, pacing, and logistics — all you do is tell us how many days you have, what styles of wine you love, and how you like to pace your day, so you can focus on enjoying the wine, the views, and the moment.
Napa Valley alone has hundreds of wineries and nearly 1,900 wine brands. Knowing where to go — and getting in — takes insider knowledge. Scenic Cellars cuts through the noise to match you with the experiences you'll actually love.
About Scenic Cellars
Hi, I'm Michael — founder of Scenic Cellars and your personal wine country concierge. As a former chef with over 20 years of culinary experience and a deep love for wine country, I craft itineraries that feel effortless and personal. Most days include two or three wineries — never more — so nothing feels rushed and every stop gets the time it deserves. From intimate boutique wineries to iconic estates, every experience is tailored to your taste. And because great wine country days include great meals, I bring the same care to restaurant recommendations as I do to the cellar.

What Our Guests Say
“Michael used his expertise as a former chef and his intimate knowledge of Sonoma wineries to provide a superb winery tour tailored to our tastes. Not having much familiarity with the winery scene myself, I would not have been able to create such a fantastic itinerary on my own. The wineries he recommended offered excellent wine, food, and service, as well as beautiful surroundings, whether inside the tasting rooms or outside near the vineyards. Michael is personable, communicative, and a pleasure to work with!"

— Michele & StevePlanning Note: Due to travel time between Napa and Sonoma, we typically recommend focusing on one region per day to keep the experience relaxed and enjoyable.
