Robert Mondavi Signature Tour and Tasting, Oakville, Napa Valley, California, USA
The Robert Mondavi Winery was one of the first in the Napa Valley to welcome visitors for tours, events, concerts and tastings.
The tour costs $25 per person and lasts approximately 75 minutes. It provides an in-depth winery tour, which follows the path of the grape from the vineyard to the cellar to the finished wine.
Guests walk into the To Kalon Vineyard, visit the winemaking cellars (including fermentation and barrel aging) and receive a seated educational tasting of three wines with one of the wine education specialists.
On this tour, Doug Frost - who is Master Sommelier and Master of Wine at the winery - took the tour and his enthusiasm for wine shows throughout the tour!

Winemaker Mike Smith of Myriad Cellars & Quivet Cellars
Winemaker Mike Smith of Myriad Cellars & Quivet Cellars is a true purist in choosing vineyards, and aging and developing artisan wines. He talks about how he follows his simple philosophy: creating the most natural and expressive wines California can offer. He obtains fruit from the Napa Valley and Sonoma County, and believes the extra expense of using rare French Oak for aging is well worth the superb results—subtlety not achievable with lesser methods.
Myriad's fruit is purchased from the prestigious Spring Mountain District above Napa Valley. Wines produced from this vineyard express intense and concentrated flavors coupled with polished mountain tannins. Dark, firm, rich and structured. Their wines age gracefully, producing more overall complexity and balance. Quivet Cellars produces very limited quantities of handcrafted boutique Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah by selecting specific rows of fruit from Spring Mountain, Kenefick Ranch and Las Madres Vineyard. The premium fruit is uniquely crushed, aged in rare French Oak and masterfully blended.
Mike samples and discusses those results for us: several of his 2009 vintage Syrahs among those they have generously made available to the New York International Wine Auction, a great event for a great cause.

Behind the Wine: Amici Cellars
In 1991, a group of friends with a passion for good wine crushed a few tons of grapes in Napa Valley for their personal cellars. Their creation received such outstanding accolades that the friends started producing wine to share with others. Appropriately named, Amici means “friends” in Italian and the Amici team are just that – a band of friends, closely collaborating to produce highly rated, handcrafted wines.

Hi :) I`m Iulia, I created this video to share my passion for architecture and interior design and enjoy with you one of the most stunning works in architecture and interior design: Sublime One-Of-A-Kind Luxury Residence in Napa Valley, CA, USA (by John Maniscalco Architecture)
I entirely created this video, primarily using the editing programs Quick GoPro, Windows Movie Maker and of course Photoshop. In order to edit this project presentation I used intro, overlayed images, used juxtapositions, transitions, parallels, that are drawn between different clips to deliver the original narrative of the video in a transformative manner that falls under Fair Use and provides unique value to my viewers. I also watermarked the video and used royalty free music as background sound.

Mega Millions Winner Selling $26 Million Mountaintop Mansion Because of Son's Heart Condition - 247
Mega Millions Winner Selling $26 Million Mountaintop Mansion Because of Son's Heart Condition - 247
Home Tour,Human Interest News,News,Real Estate
A Mega Millions lottery winner saying goodbye to his $26 million dream home. After winning the $180 million jackpot in August 2014, Rick Knudsen purchased 845 acres of land on a mountain in Oak Glen, California. He said at the time that he and his family had lived in their home for 23 years, and though they promised to stay humble after winning, they couldn’t wait to purchase a new home. “We really are very grounded people. But there’s nothing wrong with being grounded in a big house,” Rick Knudsen said during a press conference in 2014. RELATED: You Can Now Buy Your Own Mountain in Beverly Hills — If You Have a Spare $1 Billion! A “big house” might have been a bit of an understatement. He bought the Eagle Crest Mountain Estate, which features a 16,000-square-foot rustic home, 155-acres of a buffalo ranch and farm, and 640-acres of his own mountain section with water rights. After purchasing the home when it was incomplete and working to finish the estate to perfectly suit his family — a process he completed just within the last six months — he’s now choosing to sell the property for a cool $26 million, for a very good reason. The estate is listed with Craig Strong at Pacific Union International, and according to a spokesperson for the realtor, Knudsen is moving because of his son, who suffers from a heart condition. The realtor didn’t share further details about the medical condition, but said doctors have told the family that he “would benefit from living at a lower elevation.” The mountaintop house sits 6,000 feet above sea level. “It’s the time in their life that they’re ready to tone things down a little bit,” Karen Pierce, Rick Knudsen’s sister told ABC 7. “And his son does have a heart problem, and the 6,000-foot level is too much pressure on him.” The house will now have to find a new owner that appreciates its many luxurious ameniies. Inside the five-bedroom main house, there’s a three-story elevator emblazoned with the Eagle Crest Mountain Estate logo, a 17-seat theater with a George Lucas sound system and an authentic movie snack counter outside, a fully-equipped gym and a wine cellar. Designed to evoke Park City, Utah, mountain lodges, according to the listing, elements in the home such as exposed wooden beams, antler chandeliers and stone fireplaces give it a luxury “cabin in the woods” vibe. The home also features a master suite with its own deck and private jacuzzi, a state-of-the art kitchen, and a sauna. Attached to the main house and accessed via a separate entrance is a one-bedroom apartment with a full kitchen. RELATED: Robert Redford Lists Picture-Perfect Napa Valley Estate for $7.5 Million—See Inside The property also comes with a rather unusual extra, created by Knudson: an on-site full-service restaurant, the Oak Glen Steakhouse and Saloon. There’s also a fully operating ranch with 45 buffalo, two barns and a caretaker’s home.
