Hi Guys, thanks for picking up my adventure. A few comments:
1) Sorry I missed your place, Kaz. My first day took an unexpected Napa detour when I got an invite from the Luna winemaker to visit – I was going to hit all of the Kenwood/Glen Ellen stuff that day. I guarantee a visit next time ’round.
2) I wish I was drunk when those punks lightened up my wallet, but I had to take that incident mildly buzzed after a half-bottle of Bella. And I was not comp’ed a dinner!
3) Yes, most of the wineries were the bigger names, but I tried to stop at a few smaller names as well – Bella, Unti and Verite are not the big wineries with the bus tours going through. The problem is I am terribly disorganized, so calling ahead and booking appointments seems like a pain in the butt – our whole schedule was made up on the fly.
Thanks for the plug – I have added a link to this site under “Wine Media”. Yep, that’s you, above Parker I might add….PS – where did you get that T-Shirt?
Cheers!
