On Saturday we ventured off to one of our many day trips to Napa. This trip included some stops to a few wineries we had never visited.
- Silver Oak
- Clos du Val
- Pine Ridge
We always end our loop with visiting our member winery which is Alpha Omega. We are always treated like royalty here. They always give us copius samples of wine, slip us in the back for private tastings, and always are happy to see us.
This visit had a little twist. There were two couples in the tasting room that were from out of the area. Greg quickly made them feel at home; Amy and Stan were from San Antonio and Elizabeth and Jeremy were from Minnesota. We all sparked up conversation and soon found ourselves on the porch sipping wine, eating salami and cheese and exchanging stories. We hit it off well enough that we all decided to go to dinner together at The Market. The floor manager at Alpha invited us to a tasting party at his house afterwards. He is starting his own winery (David Fulton Winery) which is located within the city limits of Napa (the first of its kind).
Although it was a very long day, it was a memorable meeting of new friends, new wine, and great laughs. We will all reunite again soon.
Another Kodak moment in Napa,
