Of the many New World Wine Regions, Napa and Sonoma are probably the most famous, but why? There are many reasons, and they are found in both the stories and the insights that an insider has access to. Considering the location, its popularity seems improbable, because Sonoma and Napa are the northern most points in the Spanish Empire's expansion in the Americas. It was a place that was hard to reach by land, with a coastline that was rocky, and fog bound. When they finally arrived in Sonoma, we're convinced that the Spanish thought to themselves, We've arrived in Eden, we don't need to go any farther. Sonoma and Napa are located in a special place, that at one time was considered the far ends of the Earth, a place where explorers, adventurers and the foolish went, which made for a very interesting demographic. What is surprising is how different Sonoma and Napa are, located on either side of the Mayacamas Mountains. We often describe Sonoma as the older sister, who is a good-looking girl, a great cook and gardener, always content with her family and friends. Napa is her golden-haired little brother, who is endlessly curious about the outside world, and every time he walks in the room, everybody makes a fuss. It drives Sonoma crazy, but Napa adores his big sister.
