We started out flying in to Oakland Airport on Friday around noon. Then we met up with Anne, Stephanie, her mom Marilyn, Jessica & Sean for a picnic and some wine.
This is our picnic at V'Sattui. It was 80 degrees!
After that, we went to the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. I should have broght my camera, but forgot it. Greg's uncle's house was the location for the dinner. It was one of the neatest homes I have been in. The kitchen was out of a magzine and he had some amazing views out the back of the house. It was a great location to be for the evening. The wedding wasn't until 6pm on Saturday, so we decided to hit some of our key wineries in the morning. We were able to get a tasting at the Cakebread winery. This was a real treat. We didn't know it, but you have to make an appointment for a tasting there. We were there early and someone cancelled. It was our lucky day!
Next we went to a grocery and had a picnic lunch, then on to Chimney Rock. This winery was over the top and apparently out of our league. Most of the tastings were around $10 and they poured 5 tastes. This one was $30. Needless to say we shared that tasting. We weren't impressed.
Last stop was Luna. We thought this was bella luna with the blue bottles, but it's not. They had great wine and a very relaxed atmosphere. What a great way to end our wine tours.
After the wine, we went back to get ready for the wedding.
