Friday October 17th

We left Friday morning around 9:15 to drive back to Sacramento. It was a fun couple of days. We stayed at The Inn at Calistoga. It was very nice. It has a mineral water pool and hot tub and a sauna. Coffee in the room and continental breakfast in the morning. It is located just out side Calistoga near the Silverado trail.

We had a nice plane ride back to Phoenix and stopped in to see the Wine Princess

Thursday October 16th

Thursday we started our tasting at Sterling Winery. You ride a gondola up the hill and take a self guided tour of the winery. We saw some grapes being crushed and a fantastic view of Napa Valley from the terrace. We lunched at Clos Pegasa again and then went to Beringer Brothers Winery. Spent the rest of the day in Napa. Returned to Calistoga and had dinner at the Calistoga Inn. Delicious.
