Napa and some of the best wines!

Today was a day for really great wines.  First we were at Dunn Vineyard.  I have been drinking Dunn for a few years and know they make a great wine.  It was eye opening to visit the winery.  It truely shows you do not need all the fancy buildings, tasting rooms etc.  to make some of the best wines.

Next was AdamVS.  This is a very small winery, making only 2,500 cases a year.  But unlike Dunn they have a lot of money behind this winery and the facilities are amazing, as you will see from the pictures below.

Finally (or so we thought) was a visit to one of our Napa favs, Chappellet.  Again a very different experience from either Dunn or AdamVS.  Chappellet does over 60,000 cases a year with great facilites and great wines.

And really finally we stopped at Corison winery.  Corison is another small winery we have liked since our last visit here.  Again, the facilities are not anything exceptional, a barn with folding tables as a tasting room.  The only change since our last visit was they upgraded the table cloths.
