Other than the grocery store and a couple of restaurants there's not too much in Oakville. We stayed in a B&B there once years ago but it's since closed. If your budget for wine is generous there are some very well-regarded vineyards there -- Silver Oak, Opus One, Cakebread. St. Helena is right up the road and will have more options for food and places to stay.

We're heading out there again in June, but here are my write-ups from our last two trips. We tend not to visit the huge mass market wineries, and we were totally disappointed by Cakebread.
