adventures in wine country

I spent an amazing weekend in Napa with some of my favorite girlfriends and I just had to share a few photos with you guys. Out of all the vineyards we visited I would have to say Rombauer and Saddleback Cellars were my favorites. The weather was perfect and the company was even better.... it was so good to catch up on girl talk and to just relax. That night we went to Morimoto for dinner {for all you Iron Chef fans} and on the last day we soaked up some rays at Stinson Beach. It was a wonderful weekend with an amazing group of friends. I can't wait to go back and explore more of the valley!

*I made the girls watch the movie Bottle Shock after our day in Napa and they all loved it. If you are a wine lover or even just a Chris Pine fan I would definitely recommend it!

    How neat! I have always wanted to go there. I can't believe I live so close but have never gone with my husband or girlfriends. Must fix this!

    @Rolerkite- It's so funny you mentioned that... for my bachelorette party we did wine tasting by bicycle in Santa Barbara!

    @Mo Pie, Please- I need to see photos from your wedding!

    Oh my, this looks like the most wonderful weekend ever! Love these photos - it means I can live vicariously through you, especially as they feature all the things in life I love but can't have at the moment (red wine, champagne and brie...!). x

    Then you should have taken the Bottle Shock tour at Chateau Montelena! There's always next time. Lots to see and do! But what beats a free tasting? My fiance's family's winery is celebrating their 50 Anniversary and they've always had complimentary tastings. Check it out next time you're in our part of town (Heitz Cellar).
