You guys know I have a major obsession with wine<\/a> country<\/a>! I LOVE it! And each and every time I get up there I consider it research for my retirement (which isn’t happening for quite some time – but it\u2019s never too early to start planning right?!)<\/h2>\n

This past trip I spent a few days with Williams-Sonoma<\/a>, Fairmont<\/a> and Fortessa<\/a>. It was basically the most \u201con-brand\u201d trip to date and all we did was eat, drink, cook, and enjoy really beautiful table settings because Fortessa is killing it with their line. They have chic white plates that are basically indestructible which is great if your name is Gaby and you have a tendency to drop things. They also make my new favorite line of stemware which I’ll get to shortly! It makes me want to drink out of wine glasses for everything all day long, water, wine, kombucha… I just like feeling fancy!<\/p>\n

I was living in a dream world and I didn\u2019t want to leave. EVER! You\u2019re going to freak in the coming months as we roll out some gorgeous eye-candy but in the meantime – let\u2019s add some places to my ever growing guide to Sonoma!<\/p>\n

Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn<\/a> \/ Hotel \/ Spa \/ Brunch – how have I gone 29 years without a weekend stay at the Fairmont?? It\u2019s EVERYTHING. The spa is quite possibly my favorite spa in all of California and their diner has the worlds most epic brunch. Pictured above and below. It\u2019s a hop, skip and a jump away from the spa and you must go. It\u2019s the perfect destination for a girls weekend. Book it immediately, you\u2019ll thank me later.<\/p>\n

Cooking Classes at Williams Sonoma<\/a> – have you guys been to the ORIGINAL Williams-Sonoma in the center of Sonoma. We took a cooking class from Chef Thomas McNaughton and learned how to make a variety of different pastas and then sipped on some wine (in my new favorite Fortessa wine glasses<\/a>) in the Williams-Sonoma patio and I basically never wanted to leave. Williams-Sonoma has all sorts of fun classes (not to mention everything you\u2019d ever want for your kitchen) at the store. It’s basically a no-brainer to add this one to your Sonoma agenda!<\/p>\n

Wine Tasting at Silver Oak Cellars<\/a> – give me a gorgeous cheese platter, a flight of wine and a fun garden and see you in 2 hours. Silver Oak Cellars had all of that and it was perfect. We took a quick tour of their facilities, sipped on their favorite wines in Fortessa stemware and nibbles on a cheese platter to end all cheese platters.<\/p>\n
