    Next time check Del dotto under caves. And for sparkling wine check schramsberg. Delicious and gorgeous properties. Opus one is a most for wine and peppery visitors. Alpha Omega their wines are amazing. Peju is a beautiful property as well. And please avoid Castello de Amorosa. Their wine is so bad and their property feels like Disney.

    I'm not sure I 100% remember, but I imagine I did the lesser one because we chose to do more wineries and smaller tastings!

    Wine country is definitely not cheap! And we splurged on a lot of extra things…hot air balloon, wine and food pairings, nicer hotels, etc. But the average tasting I would guess is around $100 pp. That’s what I love about this area though- you could plan 1000+ different trips to fit it in your budget!

    I work in Napa in the wine industry. Too bad you missed all the important stuff at the some of the most important historical wineries. We cringe when we see the floppy hat girls coming with their phones and all they want to do is take photos of themselves. Castello di Amarosa was taken down in Italy and SHIPPED to Napa. It is an old castle. And yes, it is man-made…

    A little rude and pretentious. This is why I prefer Sonoma over Napa.
