Retreat Overview

Meritage-Cabana 4-Seater.JPG

Hosted at the Grand Reserve at The Meritage Resort and Spa, this experience is thoughtfully structured to remove logistical stress and allow you to settle in fully. Daily group breakfasts, curated dining experiences, guided winery tours, and wine tastings are a few of the engaging experiences, created with ease and flow throughout the week.

 

Time together is balanced with time to rest. A midweek pool and spa day offers a dedicated pause, with a reserved cabana available throughout the day for relaxation, conversation, and light refreshments. Individual check-ins are scheduled for those who desire them, and spa services may be booked on-site for guests who wish to extend their self-care experience.

 

Wine Stories is about being present in a place that supports growth, creativity, and connection. It is about honoring the season you are in and allowing inspiration to unfold naturally, much like the vines that surround you.

A Message from
Retreat Hosts & Curators, 
Nancy & Richard

Hello!

Spring in Napa Valley is one of our favorite seasons. The days are warm, the evenings are cool, and the valley feels alive with growth and possibility. The vineyards, florals, and easy rhythm of life invite you to slow down, be present, and connect. That gentle pace is the heart of Wine Stories.

Wine Stories is intentionally curated and thoughtfully paced, with limited space to preserve intimacy. It brings together two things we genuinely enjoy sharing: writing and wine, both of which invite reflection, conversation, and appreciation.

If you feel called to slow down, write, and reflect, we invite you to join us. This retreat is our way of welcoming you into the places and moments in Napa that have inspired us over the years. Experience Napa as we love it, through connection, conversation, and the stories waiting to be told.

 

We invite you to join us on this journey.

~Richard & Nancy Wallace
