Explore the Year Ahead MapA THIRD FIELD PRACTICE
IN WINE COUNTRY
A change of setting.
Attention to what happens between you.
A friendship enters a different season. A partnership reaches a new chapter. Someone deserves to hear what their presence has meant. A Council makes room for the conversation everyday life can leave waiting.
Your Director—the person who prepares and guides your gathering—shapes the day around your people and what matters now, with space for conversation, good food and the pleasure of being together. Selected exercises and something meaningful to carry home help the experience continue afterward.
The Third Field is the life people create between them: how they connect, care, differ and make room for one another. Your gathering begins with your people and the occasion you want to hold.
THE THIRD FIELD
There are two of you.
And there is what lives between you.
Every relationship holds a third presence: the life you make together, in how you connect, care, differ and make room for one another. It shapes every conversation, and no one inside it can see it whole, because everyone is standing in it. Our practices are designed for one purpose: to bring that field into view.
The field — what lives between you.
Not either person’s view, but the place where your views meet: what you share, where you differ and what has gone unsaid.
The Reflection — how we map it.
A Reflection is a guided set of questions you answer privately, in your own time and words. It gives the Director a thoughtful starting point and gives you space to notice what matters before you gather.
The Relational Map — what you receive.
For couples, a Director brings your permitted reflections into a written reading of your shared life. You each review a private Folio—your own reading—before considering a shared Map together. You can begin with the Couples Map at home.
WHY A DIRECTOR
A thoughtful guide.
Room for every voice.
Your Director prepares from your reflections, brings questions worth exploring and helps each person find room in the conversation. You decide what to share and what to carry forward.
Before you gather
The Director reads every Reflection and chooses what deserves the day’s attention. Participation stays voluntary.
While you’re together
A guided conversation around your Map, with selected questions or exercises and room to pass.
After the day
Your Map stays with you. Guided Couples work includes the workbook for what comes next, and the Council of Honor adds a personalized keepsake of memories and appreciation.
Personal Councils preserve what love has carried.
Leadership Councils clarify what responsibility now requires.
WHAT A COUNCIL IS
A day set apart, around your Map.
A Council is a privately prepared, Director-led day in wine country for the people your occasion is about. It begins with each person’s Reflection, gathers around your Relational Map, and ends with what you choose to carry forward. A Council is typically an eight-hour day; its final scope is agreed with you.
Why a day away? A neutral setting, away from the kitchen table and the meeting room where everyone’s role is already fixed, gives a conversation room to move. The landscape, the long lunch and the unhurried hours become the container in which what lives between you can be said, heard and changed.
Personal Councils are for the people who make life yours. Leadership Councils are for teams with a decision ahead.
THE PERSONAL COLLECTION

making room for.
Begin with what brings you together. Your Director helps shape the day around it.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Before you begin.
What is Terroir Trails?
We create private wine-country gatherings for couples, friends, families and leadership teams. A Director prepares and guides each Council. You can also begin at home with the Couples Map, a written reading of your relationship prepared from your individual reflections. Every experience draws on The Third Field practice.
What makes this different from a traditional wine tour?
A traditional wine tour focuses on the itinerary. Terroir Trails also helps you make useful time for the people with you. Choose a Director-led conversation or a self-guided relational Map. The optional self-guided wine-country package includes winery scheduling and a six-hour private vehicle with driver; self-guided describes the conversation, not the driving.
What do we receive to take home?
The Couples Map brings together a written reading of your current season and possibilities to consider together. Guided Couples, co-founder and team experiences include the relevant workbook. Friendship Councils include the Circle of Friends Workbook; the Council of Honor includes a personalized keepsake of memories and appreciation. Your proposal sets out the materials for your gathering.
What does the Couples Map cost?
The Map alone is $195 for two people, plus $45 per additional participant. The Map plus wine-country day is $1,395 for two, $1,485 for four, $1,575 for six or $1,665 for eight, including the Map, winery scheduling and a six-hour private vehicle with driver. Tasting fees are paid separately. These packages have no Director-led session and are subject to confirmed availability. Inquire for three, five or larger parties and for final terms.
Where do experiences take place?
In Sonoma County, Napa Valley and Healdsburg. We shape the setting, route and appointments around your group and confirm them in your proposal. The Couples Map can also be enjoyed at home.
How is AI used in a Map?
A human Director prepares and reviews your reading. If AI assistance is offered, the Director explains its use and asks for your separate permission. You can choose a human-only route. Read about privacy and sharing choices.
When can we expect Map delivery?
The target is five business days after all participants submit eligible reflections and confirm sharing permissions, subject to a confirmed preparation slot. We agree the delivery date in writing before purchase. Missing contributions, changed participants or changed permissions may affect scope or timing; we confirm changes before proceeding.
Can someone choose not to participate or share?
Yes. Each person decides whether to take part and what their answers may inform. For a Couples Map, both people review and approve the shared reading before it is released. See the full sharing process.
How can a Map help after the day?
Return to it for the conversations, arrangements and small practices you want to explore together. You may choose something to change, something to protect, or simply a clearer understanding of each other. Choose a date or occasion to revisit it in your own time.
How does the process begin?
Tell us who is gathering, the occasion and your preferred timing. We’ll help you choose a format and confirm availability, inclusions and price before you book. If you want a prepared recommendation first, ask about Field Discovery.
