California wine country's top summer festival, the Festival De Sole, runs from July 17-25. Taking place at venues throughout Napa, the festival combines classical music -including a recital by American Soprano, Renee Fleming- with wine tasting, five-star cuisine, and art exhibits. This highly-anticipated cultural festival has become one of the "hottest tickets" of the summer in Napa. If you want to partake in the festivities, Five Star Alliance offers wonderful lodging at top rated, ultra luxurious hotels in the Napa Valley region. Book a stay at The Carneros Inn (pictured above) or at any one of our seven recommended luxury hotels in Napa, and participate in the wonderful celebration of the "art of life" at the 2009 Festival De Sole.
