lemasquegris: (AppleCult)
So, after an event that kept me awake until 05:30a (I only got 3 hours sleep the night before, and then a pirate party the next day, Sunday, [livejournal.com profile] chicafangs & I went a-wine-ing in Napa. We visited Peju and Rubicon. Peju had a lot of nude goddess statues , specifically Greek gods dealing with harvesting (hmm.. wonder why...) Their Syrah was the only good wine there IMO, but I like reds with a spicy kick. They do have a nice tasty blend called "Provence", which is a mix of reds and whites, and served chilled, again, not my style, normally.

If you're a fan of Bram Stoker's Dracula, Tucker, or the Godfather, upstairs in the Rubicon estate one will find Brando's Desk from the movie, costumes from the movie Dracula (Dracula's red armor), and one pristine Tucker automobile. And the wine's not bad, none of it is the Coppola Red/Blue/whatever line of wine that you can find in Safeway or at restaurant in North Beach or Palo Alto.

Oh yeah, earlier in the day, I got one of these things. Me Happy.
