Hello fellow wine aficionados and travel enthusiasts! As a Napa Valley native, I've had the privilege of growing up in what can only be described as the epicenter of American wine culture. I’ve been on countless wine tours, and I must say, there’s nothing quite like the convenience, camaraderie, and curated experience of a wine tour bus. So, if "wine tour bus" is what you keyed into your search bar, you've come to the right place. Buckle up, and let me take you on a virtual ride through vineyards, valleys, and vintages!

Why Choose a Wine Tour Bus in Napa Valley?

The very phrase "wine tour bus" might conjure images of you with a glass in hand, swirling, sniffing, sipping, all while being chauffeured around picturesque vineyards. And you wouldn’t be wrong! Here are a few compelling reasons to opt for a bus tour:

1. Safety First!

Having a dedicated driver means you can savor every sip without worrying about the drive back.

2. A Curated Experience

Guided tours often have a pre-selected list of wineries known for their ambiance, quality of wines, or historical significance. No FOMO here!

3. Local Insights

Guides often share local anecdotes, history, and wine-tasting tips that enhance the experience manifold.

The Journey Through Grapevines: Noteworthy Stops

Now, let’s delve into some wineries that are often on the itinerary of popular wine tour buses.

1. Opus One Winery

An amalgamation of French and Californian wine heritages, it’s a testament to the vision of Baron Philippe de Rothschild and Robert Mondavi.

2. Castello di Amorosa

A 13th-century Tuscan-style castle in the heart of Napa? Yes, please! This winery offers a unique medieval experience.

3. Stag's Leap Wine Cellars

History buffs take note: this winery played a pivotal role in putting Napa Valley on the global wine map during the 1976 Paris Tasting.

Elevate Your Wine Tour Bus Experience

1. pairing over just tasting.

Several wineries offer curated meals where each dish complements the wine. A harmonious blend of flavors awaits!

2. Off-the-Beaten-Path Wineries

Ask your tour guide for smaller, boutique wineries. These hidden gems often offer unique wines and a more intimate experience.

3. Seasonal Surprises

Depending on the season of your visit, you might witness the grape harvest, the vibrant fall colors of the vineyards, or the blossoming of mustard flowers.

Tips for Your Wine Tour Bus Adventure

  • Dress in Layers : Napa's weather can be quite dynamic.
  • Stay Hydrated : Alternate between wine and water.
  • Ask Questions : Engage with the winemakers and guides.
  • Buy a Bottle or Two : Support local businesses and take home memories.

Conclusion: Sip, Swirl, Repeat!

Every quarter, six bottles are shipped to members—two each of three different wines, so you can drink one now and cellar the other. Club director Dave Shefferman, CEO of WineSavage, is well connected in Napa, having developed relationships with winery owners and winemakers over his career in California. He casts a wide net for potential offerings, looking for limited bottlings that would ordinarily only be sold to a winery’s club members or that are super small productions of only a few hundred cases or less which would be hard to procure anywhere. Each package is priced between $550 and $650, including shipping. And while a hard-to-source cult wine is well worth the price if you really want it, the beauty of this club is that it connects members with wines of “cult” status without the hassle of allocation lists or searching for bottles on the secondary market.

Pono Wines 2019 Hapa Napa Valley Red Wine

Pono Wines 2019 Hapa Napa Valley Red Wine

Proprietor Dave Sedeno, a native of Hawaii, crafts small batch wines with grapes sourced from some of Napa Valley’s finest sites. Hawaiian for “mixed” or “blended,” Hapa is made with mainly Cabernet Sauvignon (59 percent) with 20 percent Cabernet Franc, 16 percent Merlot, and 5 percent Petit Verdot from Calistoga, Atlas Peak, and Howell Mountain. Brilliant ruby to the eye, it has a bouquet of blackberry, raspberry, candied violet, and lavender. It opens on the palate with notes of licorice and clove joined by flavors of purple plum, blackberry, and butterscotch. Polished tannins endure on the palate, offering a long, smooth closing finish.

Farella 2018 Alta Red Blend

Farella 2018 Alta Red Blend

Made in the style of the incredible 1999 Masseto, the first vintage of Farella Alta was produced in 2001. A blend of 65.55 percent Cabernet Sauvignon, 32.78 percent Merlot, and 1.67 percent Malbec, it is sourced from the winery’s estate vineyard in Coombsville. After co-fermentation (meaning the three varieties are fermented together, not separately) in open-topped stainless-steel vats, it is aged in French oak, half new and half previously used, for 30 months. It is bottled unfined and unfiltered, so it’s best to leave the bottle upright for several hours before serving. It is dark garnet in color and has a nose of cranberry, pomegranate, crumbled sage, and white pepper. Opulent tannins provide a framework for black cherry, dried cherry, and forest floor flavors with soft brambly touches. There is a strong sense of minerality that offers a note of salinity in the elegant finish.

VinRoc 2019 Atlas Peak Cabernet Sauvignon

Vinroc 2019 Atlas Peak Cabernet Sauvignon

Grapes are sourced from VinRoc’s estate vineyard on Atlas Peak, where proprietor Michael Parmenter says “coyotes outnumber tourists.” Named for the rock-strewn hillside location, VinRoc sits at an 1,600-foot elevation above the fog line, providing long, sunny days and cool nights, which help to obtain maximum ripeness while maintaining freshness and acidity. Aging two years in a mix of new and used French oak in the winery’s rock-hewn cave yields a refined wine with aromas of cherry, black currant, and dried thyme. Tannins are slightly grippy at first sip, but as they peel away, nuanced flavors of black cherry, dark chocolate, caramel, and a touch of baking spices appear. The long-lasting finish is marked with notes of clove and nutmeg.

Why were so many metro stations in Moscow renamed?

Okhotny Ryad station in Soviet times and today.

Okhotny Ryad station in Soviet times and today.

The Moscow metro system has 275 stations, and 28 of them have been renamed at some point or other—and several times in some cases. Most of these are the oldest stations, which opened in 1935.

The politics of place names

The first station to change its name was Ulitsa Kominterna (Comintern Street). The Comintern was an international communist organization that ceased to exist in 1943, and after the war Moscow authorities decided to call the street named after it something else. In 1946, the station was renamed Kalininskaya. Then for several days in 1990, the station was called Vozdvizhenka, before eventually settling on Aleksandrovsky Sad, which is what it is called today.

The banner on the entraince reads:

The banner on the entraince reads: "Kalininskaya station." Now it's Alexandrovsky Sad.

Until 1957, Kropotkinskaya station was called Dvorets Sovetov ( Palace of Soviets ). There were plans to build a monumental Stalinist high-rise on the site of the nearby Cathedral of Christ the Saviour , which had been demolished. However, the project never got off the ground, and after Stalin's death the station was named after Kropotkinskaya Street, which passes above it.

Dvorets Sovetov station, 1935. Letters on the entrance:

Dvorets Sovetov station, 1935. Letters on the entrance: "Metro after Kaganovich."

Of course, politics was the main reason for changing station names. Initially, the Moscow Metro itself was named after Lazar Kaganovich, Joseph Stalin’s right-hand man. Kaganovich supervised the construction of the first metro line and was in charge of drawing up a master plan for reconstructing Moscow as the "capital of the proletariat."

In 1955, under Nikita Khrushchev's rule and during the denunciation of Stalin's personality cult, the Moscow Metro was named in honor of Vladimir Lenin.

New Metro stations that have been opened since the collapse of the Soviet Union simply say "Moscow Metro," although the metro's affiliation with Vladimir Lenin has never officially been dropped.

Zyablikovo station. On the entrance, there are no more signs that the metro is named after Lenin.

Stations that bore the names of Stalin's associates were also renamed under Khrushchev. Additionally, some stations were named after a neighborhood or street and if these underwent name changes, the stations themselves had to be renamed as well.

Until 1961 the Moscow Metro had a Stalinskaya station that was adorned by a five-meter statue of the supreme leader. It is now called Semyonovskaya station.

Left: Stalinskaya station. Right: Now it's Semyonovskaya.

The biggest wholesale renaming of stations took place in 1990, when Moscow’s government decided to get rid of Soviet names. Overnight, 11 metro stations named after revolutionaries were given new names. Shcherbakovskaya became Alekseyevskaya, Gorkovskaya became Tverskaya, Ploshchad Nogina became Kitay-Gorod and Kirovskaya turned into Chistye Prudy. This seriously confused passengers, to put it mildly, and some older Muscovites still call Lubyanka station Dzerzhinskaya for old times' sake.

At the same time, certain stations have held onto their Soviet names. Marksistskaya and Kropotkinskaya, for instance, although there were plans to rename them too at one point.

"I still sometimes mix up Teatralnaya and Tverskaya stations,” one Moscow resident recalls .

 “Both have been renamed and both start with a ‘T.’ Vykhino still grates on the ear and, when in 1991 on the last day of my final year at school, we went to Kitay-Gorod to go on the river cruise boats, my classmates couldn’t believe that a station with that name existed."

The city government submitted a station name change for public discussion for the first time in 2015. The station in question was Voykovskaya, whose name derives from the revolutionary figure Pyotr Voykov. In the end, city residents voted against the name change, evidently not out of any affection for Voykov personally, but mainly because that was the name they were used to.

What stations changed their name most frequently?

Some stations have changed names three times. Apart from the above-mentioned Aleksandrovsky Sad (Ulitsa Kominterna->Kalininskaya->Vozdvizhenka->Aleksandrovsky Sad), a similar fate befell Partizanskaya station in the east of Moscow. Opened in 1944, it initially bore the ridiculously long name Izmaylovsky PKiO im. Stalina (Izmaylovsky Park of Culture and Rest Named After Stalin). In 1947, the station was renamed and simplified for convenience to Izmaylovskaya. Then in 1963 it was renamed yet again—this time to Izmaylovsky Park, having "donated" its previous name to the next station on the line. And in 2005 it was rechristened Partizanskaya to mark the 60th anniversary of victory in World War II. 

Partizanskaya metro station, nowadays.

Another interesting story involves Alekseyevskaya metro station. This name was originally proposed for the station, which opened in 1958, since a village with this name had been located here. It was then decided to call the station Shcherbakovskaya in honor of Aleksandr Shcherbakov, a politician who had been an associate of Stalin. Nikita Khrushchev had strained relations with Shcherbakov, however, and when he got word of it literally a few days before the station opening the builders had to hastily change all the signs. It ended up with the concise and politically correct name of Mir (Peace).

The name Shcherbakovskaya was restored in 1966 after Khrushchev's fall from power. It then became Alekseyevskaya in 1990.

Alekseyevskaya metro station.

Alekseyevskaya metro station.

But the station that holds the record for the most name changes is Okhotny Ryad, which opened in 1935 on the site of a cluster of market shops. When the metro system was renamed in honor of Lenin in 1955, this station was renamed after Kaganovich by way of compensation. The name lasted just two years though because in 1957 Kaganovich fell out of favor with Khrushchev, and the previous name was returned. But in 1961 it was rechristened yet again, this time in honor of Prospekt Marksa, which had just been built nearby.

Okhotny Ryad station in 1954 and Prospekt Marksa in 1986.

In 1990, two historical street names—Teatralny Proyezd and Mokhovaya Street—were revived to replace Prospekt Marksa, and the station once again became Okhotny Ryad.
