WINE COUNTRY VISIT JUNE 2009

This visit included several interviews for the podcast plus press passes to “Taste Napa Valley Barrel Auction”.  I recorded brief interviews with over 20 winemakers, attendees and vendors at the auction.  We arrived in San Francisco in Sunday, May 30th and Returned Sunday June 7th.

Rubicon Estate tasting-  Excellent tasting featuring Blancaneaux, 2000 and 2005 Rubicon.
2005 took the win.  Classy and fun, purchased RC x2 bottles.  As usual the hospitality was fantastic!
