just a few stops...

Ok, you experts.
I know there are a few threads out there dealing with this, but I'll ask anew anyway!

I'm honeymooning in Stinson Beach, just North of San Francisco this summer from July 11-18th.
We'll have a car, and I think I can get ONE day to go winery-hopping.

I want a few wineries, pretty close together, with a wide-range of interesting wines, nothing too fancy or expensive, and a laid-back atmosphere for me and my honey to wander about! Where to?

I know I'm going to do Easton/Terre Rouge when we visit Sacramento for a day, but other than that I'm open to any and all!

Also, what is the best way to ship wine back and what is proper etiquette ata winery as far as buying (is it expected that we take home at least a bottle or two)?


I've only been to wineries in Missouri and Wisconsin!

Thanks (i.e., Tankee dere!)
