7/8/2013 - Napa, CA
I toured four wineries in Napa. Each winery was beautiful, but I felt the tour guides all told the same two stories: First, making wine in Napa is really expensive. Second, Napa wine tastes the best.
As one example, the smallest winery we visited was Andretti, owned by the race car driver. He spent a fortune buying land and growing wine. Then, their Syrah won a "best in show" award. They told it like it was an underdog story! They came from behind, with only $50 million, and finally got some recognition for their efforts. I thought about my friends in Milwaukee who brew beer in their homes. It's usually pretty good, and it doesn't cost $50 million.
