While in California we went to Napa and Sonoma for some great French Bistro food and wine tasting. One of the unique spots in the valley is Castello di Amorosa, a castle on the other side of the hill from Sterling Vineyards. Although Sterling was having a 50% off sale and all their wine was excellently priced, this bottle of rose (Gioia), a grape I rarely like or drink, was excellent.
Although I help run a pubcrawl group, I’m not the drinker I once was in college – and even then I tended to take more care than most of my friends. In a pursuit to be healthier for 2010, I’ve vowed to drink less, concentrate on more craft beer and wine than hard liquor. This I hope helps two fold: assist my liver’s extended life and reduce my over whelming expense of inebriation in this city.
