I just found out that my new home in Napa will be at Castello di Amorosa! New Home? Yeah right… just kidding…
Pixar’s next wrap party will be held at Castello di Amorosa this June 9 for their upcoming movie Brave.
I have been to this place twice already and this wine place is very special and unique simply because the winery has a castle (yes there is a castle in Napa). My husband and I took a wine tour of the castle back in 2008. The tour took us underground where they store all their barrels of wine. In another room, they had a bar of course and we tried all sorts of red wine. My favorite red wine from Castello di Amorosa is the Sangiovese.
Since we live in Napa County and depending on the winery, we can taste the wine for free or pay at a discounted price. We have been to different wineries in Napa but my favorite winery is actually Castello di Amorosa. Being there really makes me feel like I am in medieval or renaissance Italy.
Below are pictures I took back in 2008 when we first visited Castello di Amorosa. Second time I visited this place was probably same year or 2009. The castle probably looks a little different by now.
Wow it will be very interesting to have the Pixar party there. Nelson tells me that the movie will be shown outdoors. Gee hopefully it will be a warm night!
