But, You Don't Drink Wine!
... the wines. The highlight, though, was the wine tasting afterward. Dave and I aren't huge wine enthusiasts, but you can't go to Napa without drinking at least a little wine. We sampled four wines. Dave prefers the fruity wines, but I like my wine dry. The ...

Mario Andretti Winery
Our group had dinner at Mario's Winery. I guess it must be nice to have enough money to buy your own vineyard. It wasn't my choice for dinner - but I'm a team player and suffered through it. Luckily, I wasn't the only non-enthusiasts in the ...
