Wine Country

Sunday we got into Napa and had our first tasting at Castello di Amorosa, modeled after a medieval castle, with fantastic Italian wines. Our favorite wine there was called Il Brigante, a meritage. Monday we went to Jessup Cellars and had a private two hour tasting in their VIP room. Thanks again Murph! Our favorite wine there was Table for Four. We walked away with an education and a few bottles of wine. Then we went to Domain Carneros where we did a tour and tasting and learned how sparkling wine is made. Their property is beautiful. Yesterday, we went to Reverie, which has an awesome tour, where you end up tasting in a cave, and in a ring of redwoods. We also went to Chateau Montelena, Charles Krug, Markham and Twomey. We had a beautiful couple days in Napa and are now heading to Oregon.
