I can't stop thinking about Napa Valley and how much fun it was. Back in March, I was helping Julie Wheat with her Cavortressfashion show when I won a trip to Napa for a Live in the Vineyard. Earlier that day I had entered to win the trip online, was announced the winner after the fashion show and before I knew it, me and my best friend were meeting up in San Francisco and headed out to wine country.
You can see video from the event where I won the trip here and the Cavortress (she's St Louis Fashion week-bound now!!) fashion show here.
This video is us touring through wine country by day (Part 2 is some of the salvaged Napa night life- most of it got lost some how). Still three hours behind on Eastern time, we woke up early to explore on our own. Live in the Vineyard has a complete itinerary for us the entire weekend. The next day we dipped out on our set schedule and headed over to visit our friend Neil at Regusci Winery instead.
After editing this footage, I am headed out to Edisto Island for a good time with friends- my bottle of Regusci in hand. In the words of Neil "if your pissed off, drink vodka."
You must go!
Last month at the Cavortress Fashion Show at aloft hotel Charleston, I WON a trip to Live in the Vineyard in Napa Valley California. I decided to bring my very best friend from back home in Baltimore and we had the time of our lives. The Weekend was full of intimate concerts, LOTS of wine tasting, great food, good fun, learning new things, meeting new friends, and of course-exploring wine country.
Seeing as how I am a full-time student with a full-time job and three internships, I never would have thought I’d be visiting Napa this soon in life. Over the past several years working in the hospitality industry of Charleston, I have been fortunate enough to learn from some of the best and my interest in wine has grown immensely. I would consider myself to love it more than most (especially red), appreciate it more than I should, and couldn’t wait to visit wine country.
Our first day in Napa began bright and early (still were on East Coast time) long before the wineries were open for tastings and tours. We only had about 2 hours before a scheduled event Live in the Vineyard had planned for us so, we decided to explore.
Once the vineyards were open on the third day, and we had tasted several different wineries at a party the night before, we knew just where we wanted to go: Regusci Winery
Special thank you to Neil Bason, Direct Sales Manager at Regusci Winery, for his much appreciated hospitality and time. If you ever get to Napa, be sure to stop in and see Neil (and Trixie the “mutt slut”) at Regusci- located in the Stags Leap District.
