Come gather in Sonoma County this holiday and winter season. This bountiful land and its people are ready to pull up another seat to the table, another glass at the wine bar, and share everything to be thankful for.

There are many tours from San Francisco that can take you to nearby wine country. Here are our top picks.

The Tri-Valley is an original blend of scientists, winemakers, and techies who call it home. Accessible from anywhere in the Bay Area, the "Sunny Side of the Bay" is minutes from San Francisco, but worlds away.

Just over an hour north of San Francisco, the Napa Valley is a fabled legacy of international renown, yet is also one of the smallest winegrowing regions in the world. Only 30 miles long and a few miles wide, the valley’s 150 restaurants, 125 lodging properties, outdoor activities, events and art galleries ensure that there is no one way to experience the valley. You may just have to come back for more.

It's a wine lover's heaven, but there's so much more to experience in Napa Valley.
