[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Went years ago, but agree with Andretti and V"Sattui as recommended.  Also enjoyed Sterling (take the gondola to the top where the main building is; great views) and Chateau Montelena (from "Bottle Shock") in Calistoga.  In Sonoma, the winery Coppola owns in Geyerseville is fascinating and houses his Godfather Oscars.  I also enjoyed Ledson (beautiful mansion and nice gift shop) as well as Iron Horse (which was brand new when I went there) and Gundlach Bundschu.  We at at the Girl and the Fig, which was good as well.[/quote]

If the Girl and the Fig is still around, I second above - it’s worth going.  [/quote]

I’m the PP that just got home. It IS open and it was wonderful.

Also - we hated V. Sattui. It was recommended by several friends of ours, but the experience was awful. It felt like a bad amusement park, with patrons being shuffled around, swarming with people, and hosts who were virtual used car salesmen. One bathroom was closed and there were more than a dozen women lined up.  I will say the food was good. But I’ll never go back there.[/quote]

DH loves their wines and gets monthly club shipments so he always wants to go when we visit, but I totally agree with you. It is by far the most crowded of any other vineyards we go to every single trip. Even the separate club member bar is packed most of the time. [/quote]
