Spring Mountain Hidden Gems: A Scenic Napa Wine Tour with a Local Driver

Spring Mountain offers some of the most dramatic views and exclusive tasting experiences in Wine Country. With steep, winding roads and elevated vineyards, this is an area where hiring a Napa Tour Driver or Designated Driver in Napa isn’t just convenient—it’s essential. Here are a few of our favorite Spring Mountain stops when planning unforgettable Napa Wine Tours.

Pride Mountain Vineyards

Located on Spring Mountain Road, Pride Mountain is uniquely positioned across both Sonoma and Napa counties. Tastings include a guided cave tour and a barrel tasting of a future wine, making it one of the most immersive experiences on the mountain. Long-tenured wine hosts create a warm, family-like atmosphere, and the views over Napa Valley are stunning. Guests can enjoy picnic lunch areas on property—perfect for pairing a deli lunch with a bottle from the winery.

Flying Lady Winery

Flying Lady Winery is a true boutique gem, producing roughly 1,000 cases annually from a rare historic vineyard block on Spring Mountain. Tastings are intimate and educational, often hosted by Marc, a passionate wine educator. As one of the highest-elevation wineries in the area, Flying Lady is a spot where booking a Napa driver is highly recommended.

Frias Family Vineyard

Known for highly rated Cabernet Sauvignon and red blends, Frias Family Vineyard delivers a personal, owner-hosted experience. Manny Frias himself often leads tastings, sharing incredible stories about his family and winemaking journey. The combination of exceptional wines and genuine hospitality makes this a Spring Mountain standout.
