We did this year's tour of Napa Valley with our close friends John and Mary. We started the day just south of Calistoga at Schramsberg Vineyards which is up a narrow one lane mountain road a few miles. It doesn't look that bad on the map but is quite the experience in person. It adds to the mystique!
Once there, the wine tasting was done outside on the patio.
Our friend John contemplating what was about to happen. Our host set up the glasses and prepared the sparkling wines - they can't call them "champagne" since they are not made in France. :)
If you are into champagnes, this is well worth the trip up the hill. It is a smaller winery so it is a more intimate experience.
