re: Napa and San Francisco

If you like their wine, that's all that matters. I find it's mediocre and overpriced because of that. It's also my opinion-- and I believe a quite valid one-- that there are much better wineries and settings in the area. I've said before V. Sattui is like the Disney World of wine. They're apparently making money, and good for them, but they won't be getting any of mine.

If you have a chance to go to Napa again, schedule a tasting at Joseph Phelps. Not the best wine in my opinion (though better than V. Sattui), but the view and atmosphere are incredible.
