The app provides users with a thorough overview of the history of the area, as well as some key offerings in the way of sightseeing, wine tasting and dining out. Start by opening the digital map, and assess where you are in relation to the area’s signature wineries and restaurants. Then you can plan on how to proceed, either via car, foot or bicycle.

The app includes a useful list of current events, such as the Downtown Blues Festival, as well as future events. There is also a “Hot News” category that gives the last scoop on restaurant acquisitions, etc. You can also search for events by specific category, including recreation, shopping, and so on.
