I don't know of any multi-day tours, but if you need to create your own itinerary combining single day tours, I had a great day with this group:

http://www.napawinetours.net/tours/...il.cfm/tid/4166

The picnic lunch was extraordinary as were some of the wines and wineries. They make each day's ride unique based on the wine preferences of the day's riders.

If you go, be sure to ask about the winery with the red champagne and a buttery chardonay... I believe it is the Frank Family Winery.

They may be willing to work with you to create a multi-day tour, as I think the same company has tours out of another wine region town as well as Calistoga.

The day's riding was a little shorter than you mention, but I think we hit 6 or 7 wineries the day I rode with them.
