Purple Bloom in Napa Valley

I'm not familiar with these flowers. I sort of just snapped it while driving around in the Wine Country in Napa Valley, California. Looking around for images in Google search, I believe it's Chicory (Cichorium intybus), but I could very well be wrong. Your guess is as good as mine.

That's what sucks about snapping on random plants you come across when you're not a botanist. Still, it's fun looking for a matching plant later when you actually have to name and describe the photo.

Do you know what this plant is?
