I feel as though I have been dropped into a movie. As I write this outdoors sitting in front of a blazing fire, I feel the gentle chill of a California Napa morning on my arms. The fog rolls in over vineyards that stretch forever in every direction from this idyllic porch where I write. Mt. Veeder to my left is topped with a shaggy foggy cloud that spans her crown. To my right stretches Calistoga and her vines heavy with grapes anticipating harvest. Knowing when expectations are sky high, many times reality does not meet the vision, I tried to prepare myself for the staus quo. However, as we arrived and rushed into the great hall, we realized that nothing our minds could have imagined could have prepared us for this three acre slice of heaven set down in Napa Valley. Feeling as though we have been transported to Tuscany, our first evening here was surreal. Almost as in a cloud of glorious wonder, we greeted our friends as they arrived from all over America. Laughter filled the air continuously as we hugged and welcomed "Italian" style. Tenstone Estate is beyond words. Award-winning Chef Sarah is our chef and she promptly wowed us with a poolside banquet of split pea chowder and grilled tenderloin over green salad topped with his homemade dressing that we watched her create. This was a tremendous culinary learning as well as tasting experience. The Cakebread Syrah was indeed the perfect complement to the tenderloin, just as our guide Lance told us it would be. We fell into luxurious beds that my wife says "feel like marshmallows". Plush duvets, feather pillows, high ceilings and lavender soaps graced our paths as we drifted to a dreamy sleep.
