This is where the beguines — emancipated women who lived pious and chaste lives without taking holy orders — once lived together in harmony.

Onboard, chefs prepare multi-course meals paired with carefully selected wines from the region. With options from sunset dinners to tasting tours with winery stops, the Wine Train offers a memorable way to experience Napa’s flavors and landscapes.
