## Overview

New Clairvaux Abbey and Vineyard

## Details

Spend a spirited day in the northern corner of the valley. We will head to lunch at the Sierra Taproom in Chico, then continue on to witness the amazing Sacred Stones at the New Clairvaux Abbey in Vina. Lovingly recreated with 13th Century stone fragments from the Spanish Cistercian Monastery of Santa Maria de Ovila, you'll be surprised to learn Leland Stanford and William Randolph Hurst also played a role in this amazing project. Take a guided tour of the abbey followed by a visit to the winery for a tour and tasting. You will have time to see the stunning vistas, enjoy the koi pond, and visit the gift shop where you may find the perfect treasure. On the way home we will make a pit stop at Granzella's Gourmet and Gifts in Williams.
