Imagine the full VIP treatment the minute you arrive at an exclusive beautiful Napa Valley winery on a gorgeous evening with a full Harvest Moon. Your group of 50 is greeted with a spectacular milestone 2001 Nickel and Nickel 100% chard and generous servings of the finest ideally paired hors d'oeuvres prepared by a local master chef. Without even asking, your date is already purring, "Now this is more like it!"

After the perfect amount of time renewing acquaintances at this warm reception, and with replenished glasses, our friendly (and rather humorous) club members and their guests are escorted on a private tour of the magnificent winery. (Somehow this tour is way better than you expected. Could it be, the proprietors know this appreciative group has actually set all-time one-day purchasing records for some wineries?) Our tour turns out to be one of the best they've given.

Then it's time for our private winery dinner with offerings of supplemental wines paired with excellent food, and dessert, and dessert wine, along with great conversation and laughs in a setting with all the splendor you could have ever imagined.

It is a magical night of wine appreciation, scenic beauty, fine dining and friends. We're driven back to Marin and across the Golden Gate to San Francisco in our private motor coach (which, as we get closer to returning to reality, we realize is a fancy bus). And you and that special date or life-partner of yours are impressed, deferential, and pleased thinking, “How lucky we are.”
