Soda Canyon Store

Kristi, along with her sister Gina Ergun and longtime friend Bonnie Mott, co-owns the Soda Canyon Store.  Constructed in 1946, the historic Soda Canyon Store is a true family affair for co-owners Bonnie, Gina & Kristi. Soda Canyon Store is located on Silverado Trail in Napa and remains the only store on the Trail between Napa and Calistoga for coffee, lunch, snacks, beverages and of course, wine!  It is a comfortable and approachable store within the Napa Valley and continues to foster neighborly spirit for patrons from all walks of life; all centered around a bountiful offering of healthful, delicious handmade offerings.
