We departed the hotel at 9 AM and headed for the Golden Gate Bridge. It was very foggy, and when we stopped on the Marin County Side, we could not see much of the bridge, but it is alway fun to stop and look back.
We arrived at our destination about 2 hours later, and much to my surprise, it was Castillo Di Amorosa, a relatively new winery that is owned by Dario Sattui, the owner of my favorite winery V. Sattui. Below are two pictures. The castle took 15 years to build and is comprised of 127 rooms. The bricks and stones are from Europe, and the traditional Tuscany building style was followed.
We had a private tour, a private tasting of five wines (good but not quite up to par with V. Sattui yet), and a catered sit down Italian lunch (with plenty more wine).
It was a great day shared with great people, and I look forward to going back again some day.
