May is the busiest month for searches. March is cheaper and far quieter. Search volume here is thin, so read it as directional.
March in Napa is mustard season, when the vineyards turn yellow with cover-crop bloom, and budbreak starts around the same time. Days sit around 65°F, and it is far easier to book than May.
