Kenwood Inn & Spa

Wine country has produced its own design dialect, and Kenwood Inn and Spa speaks it fluently: stone fireplaces, courtyard fountains, and enough warm terracotta to make you forget there's a highway outside. It sits on Route 12 in the Sonoma Valley, sized somewhere between an impersonal resort and an aggressively cozy B&B, which turns out to be the right call for cork-chasers and romantics arriving with a weekend and a winery list.
