Finally, we saw the Sutter Home Winery. When we were in Hilton Head with McNairs', Pepi served a great wine from Sutter Home. Hank and I decided to try and find with one it was....Pinot Grigio??????
We went to lunch at a really neat deli called V. Sattui, picked up a sandwich, salad and cheese. As you can tell, gorgeous landscaping. If it weren't so cool we would have had a picnic here.
The Beringer Winery had a great tour. The cave had about 300 barrels of 2006' Sauvignon wine. The mansion had been beautifully restored where we tasted White, Merlot and Sauvignon wines. The grounds were gorgeous and very well maintained.
The weather was cool so we wore our jackets today. One of the stops was the Robert Mondavi. Great tour. Beautiful landscaping.
Napa Valley is about 30mins. away from where our RV park is located. We headed out early this morning. Driving up the Silverado Trail you see row after row of grapes vines and we were really lucky, it is harvest time. The vines are full with white, red and purple grapes. Obviously we saw alot of pickers, mostly mexican.
Darioush Winery had fascinating architecture. Stag's Leap Cellars seem to go on forever. (They had the first Calfornia wine to beat out the French in International tastings).
