If you're a serious wine tourist, the best season to have lunch at a nice

April.
That's when the restaurants are filled with winery owners, winemakers, and
deal-makers (the suppliers to the industry).

Shame on you for letting the secret out of the bag. I totally agree that
it is a lot better in the winter than in the tourist months. Justin
Meyer used always bring along a couple of bottles for lunch in
Geyserville and wanted to entertain. Cafe Lolo in Santa Rosa is a great
star gazing spot as well as Zin and Ralph's Bistro in Healdsburg. In
Healdsburg there are always Dry Creek and Russian River vintners at
dinner.
