18 Premier Wineries With Excellent Food in Napa Valley
"Though Handwritten was founded more than a decade ago, its Yountville tasting room only opened in 2020 and winemaker Rob Lloyd’s experience is extensive. He worked for Cakebread, Stag’s Leap, and La Crema, before joining the Handwritten team. The Bread and Butter experience ($100) puts butter on the pedestal it deserves, with three types on offer — an Amish cow’s milk butter with sea salt, a goat and cow milk blend from Petaluma, and an all-goat milk version from Wisconsin — to taste alongside the wines — a sauvignon blanc, pinot noir, and three cabernets. With white truffle potato chips, bread from Bouchon Bakery, coppa salame, and P’tit Basque cheese, it’s like a savory afternoon tea time but with wine." - Dianne de Guzman, Laura Smith Borrman, Eater Staff
