THURSDAY | SEPTEMBER 28th

Depending upon your arrival time, day one of your amazing adventure has plenty ofrest and relaxation, or invigorating recreation, on tap for you and your traveling

companion. Whether getting some exercise is on your mind, a massage or spa treatment,or simply lounging with a good book, you will have everything you desire within reach.

And, plenty of time to get into the spirit of Sonoma.

Tonight, join Chloe and fellow guests for a welcome dinner featuring the verybest organic and farm-raised fare in the region, and, of course, several

delicious wines. Along with affording us an opportunity to divulge additionaltrip details, this enables guests to get acquainted and to enjoy the shared

anticipation of the incredible experience that is about to unfold.


FRIDAY | SEPTEMBER 29th

Today indulge in a once-in-a-lifetime experience, not typically open to the public, goingbehind the scenes to see what really goes into the production of wine. Join the harvesting

team in one of the most crucial steps in the wine-making process.

This evening, we will gather around the table, together, for a lively evening ofwine and conversation. We expect each of our guests will have something unique

to share after partaking in such a unique and vital process in winemaking.


SATURDAY | SEPTEMBER 30th

The highlight of your journey delivers you to a 75-acre vineyard heavily wooded withSpanish Oaks, Giant Coastal Redwoods and Sequoias. Each of your five senses will come

to life as you breath in the land’s rich aromas, and natural and manmade beauty. Asmuch a nature preserve as a sophisticated winery, this Sonoma gem is a sanctuary to beexperienced at a slow pace, inside and out. take in all its outdoor and indoor beauty, andlearn every detail of the elaborate vinification process. Together, we’ll enjoy a leisurely tour

of its meticulous and lush property, discovering and discussing every detail of theelaborate vinification process and the region’s unique climate. Afterward, our hosts willlead us to where we’ll share an organic, family-style meal complete with the winery’slegendary heirloom tomatoes, and, of course, bottles—a few named after one of the

owner’s famed Jersey Boys Broadway play.


SUNDAY | OCTOBER 1st

Sundays are all about relaxation and today, our guests will be awash in calm,

soothing sensations. Tucked between the redwoods and the ocean, is one of the

world’s premier destinations for deep relaxation. A spa and Zen meditation retreat,

this peaceful sanctuary features North America’s only haven for cedar enzyme baths,

a unique Japanese therapeutic treatment that will leave you feeling calm, warm and

soothed—and that will leave you chuckling just a bit as you sink into a pile of soft

cedar flakes, especially if experienced with a friend. Just like a mini Zen garden where

you effortlessly rake the sand over and over in a relaxing motion, your fingers and

toes will brush through the cedar and subtly lull you into a peaceful state.

.

*For those of you joining us for all three wine experiences, we have myriad spa options for

men and women, including an invigorating seaweed full body moisturizing treatment, deep-

tissue massages, mud baths, facials and so much more. Relaxation is top of mind when

traveling with Chloe Johnston Experiences; your spa wishes are always within reach.

After this physically and spiritually

healing experience, we’ll walk across

the street to indulge in an assortment

of brick oven-baked sourdough

breads, scones, biscotti, sticky buns

and more—just the right dose of

decadence to whet your appetite for

the ultimate dining experience that

awaits this evening
