Swirl, swirl, smell. sip. and spit
I'm back.

Couple of days in San Francisco, three more in Napa /Sonoma, and then two days in Sacramento for the American Wine Society Conference.

WOW - I ate some exquisite food and drank/ bought some even more amazing wines.

Highlights:

1. "Friends Forever" spa treatment in a wine cave (yes - wine cave - carved in to the hillside) at our resort: Massage, body scrub, and cheese and fruit tray with wine for four friends, followed by a soak in the hot spring and sparkling wine.

2. Dinner at The French Laundry - more to follow

3. Lunch at "Julia's Kitchen" and touring Copia

4. Winning a silent auction flight of reserve Old Vine Zinfadels from St. Francis: 1998-2003

5. Meeting Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver - seriously.

More to follow....
