On the costliest stretch of Napa Valley real estate, the chickens are taking over. Long Meadow Ranch stands by its integrated sustainable farming practices, growing grapes alongside organic heirloom fruits and vegetables destined for the St Helena farmers market – and lucky chickens in their coop-resort. Stop by their 1874 farmhouse to taste classic Rutherford cab, scene-stealing merlot and summer-lightning sauvignon blanc. Tasting walk-ins welcome, food pairings by appointment; bottles $25 to $80.
