Pictures From Top: I stumble across Elizabeth Spencer; Tasting the 2003 Quintessa, released on the day we arrived; Your Mayor Joins Fleming's Wine Director Marian Jansen op da Haar (right) and Aphrodite for the Toga Party.
As you can imagine, my sensory overload slowed my writing down to a crawl once the wine began to flow and images and food became indelibly linked. I'll begin to transcribe my notes over the next few days, and try to create for you the tapestry of sights and sounds and smells and tastes that I was lucky enough to experience at the hand's of the professional Fleming's crew. Napa is a gem of a place, but more than that, it is a group of passionate, off beat personalities who, for the good of the Napa product, band together and create magic on so many levels. Enjoy a few photos while you patiently wait for the stories in my heart to be decanted, swirled, sipped and savored.
