Heading out to Cali in two weekends for a wedding in Walnut Creek. I'll have Friday all day and Saturday morning before the wedding free and looking for suggestions.

Fly into SFO Thursday 6:30pm. I booked a hotel in Mill Valley just north of the golden gate bridge for Thursday night with plans to head to Muir Woods friday morning for a hike. After Muir Woods, was thinking of driving up to Napa since I have never been there. Not sure of what specifically where to go in Napa area for an afternoon or where to do a low-key wine tasting? It'll just be myself and I am not very knowledgeable about wine so does not need to be a fancy spot

Friday evening staying in Walnut Creek but again have Saturday morning open before the wedding so not sure of anything in the Walnut Creek area to do?

Thanks y'all

A lot of Napa will require reservations. Sonoma has more low key stuff, may still require reservations, but will be a little more relaxed.

ETA: From Mill Valley you should be able to get to Sonoma pretty quickly. Napa wouldn't be too much farther from there.

If you like sparkling wine, Domaine Carneros is a good place to start. You can get a reasonably priced tasting. It's kind of in between Napa and Sonoma. It's got great scenery and while a little bit of a cattle call, it's still a decent service experience.
