Culinary Nirvana

You’ll know you’ve left ordinary existence behind the moment you walk in the door of the Spice Island Marketplace at the historic Greystone Cellars north of St. Helena. At this expansive market, shelves are stocked with premier cookware, bakeware, kitchen tools, gourmet foods (including of course, herbs and spices) and a library-worthy collection of 1,700 cookbooks.

Bring your culinary wish list along and also allow enough time to visit the heavenly tasting bar where you can sample chocolates, cheeses, charcuterie, olive oils and even just relax in a comfortable lounge setting.
