Bright and early on a Wednesday morning, we took Lucy to Castillo de Amorosa - her first trip to a winery in Napa Valley.
The hillsides in the crisp morning air made a great backdrop for a few photos.
The tour started in The Chapel. Lucy sat for a moment to take it all in.
One can look at this wall for a long time and still find new details.

A mural.
Next we visited the Great Hall.
The ceiling is my favorite feature in the Great Hall.
Two comfy chairs available!
The walls are adorned with midevial scenes.
The back wall.
From there, we went to a turret.
Let's start making our way into the underground tunnels!
There are several layers of tunnels, most stacked with wine barrels.

A photo op!
In the Torture Chamber, there is a spiked chair for those brave enough to use.
My wife gingerly gave it a go.
On to the tasting room!
When we bought tickets, we checked the box to get chocolates to sample with their red wines - highly recommended!
