I went to Napa with Ms. Okie John last summer. We only had time to hit six wineries but I'm pretty sure we hit the right six. The wines were astonishing and less expensive than I expected. The best ones are only sold through each winery's proprietary wine club or on the estate.
If I had it all to do over again, I'd limit my visits to the wineries that require a reservation. The ones that are open to the public tend to get super busy so it can be like standing in a packed bar. Also, a surprising number of them offer a substantial military discount.

Just had these; they were both good:
It’s true. In my early 20’s I was introduced to wine via Moscato. It was too sweet for my liking after several months and now will never go back. Drier the better these days. No one ever says that about much.
Edit: It’s worth mentioning to wine noobs that there is a great app called Vivino. You can literally take a picture of the label, it will find you the average price, and it’s rating, and tell you more about the wine.
Also worth mentioning, I’m not a big wine-o, but Aldi has some surprisingly okay wines. A novice wine drinker not looking to spend $15-$30 on a bottle just to try it could go here. Even the Aldi owl brand wines that are $2.50/bottle taste just as good as some $15 bottles I’ve purchased. Know that some $30 dollar bottles taste like some $13 bottles.

Aldi had one in a box, that was around $10, which was pretty awesome. We bought the stock out of our local store and gave them out as Christmas gifts. I think each box was about 3 bottles worth of volume.
We (well the wife) tried the chocolate wine Aldi carries. That was weird and not very good.
