Today, 13 guests from Calistoga Ranch came over for a "lesson" in bottling! They cam from as far as Chicago and Philadelphia and as close as San Francisco, but they all had one thing in common - they like wine! We began with a short tour of the winery and vineyard while Chef Becca Goldfarb (our niece and an extraordinary chef who recently graduated from San Francisco's California Culinary Academy) prepared a bounty in the kitchen.

Steve takes everyone on a short walk through the vineyard
Becca starts everyone off with a glass of champagne and endive with goat cheese and dried dates - yummy!

Then the bottling, corking and labelling begins! It can be messy!
A wonderful day of meeting new friends
