What are the nearest beaches like?

where do you park?

Really enjoy your channel. Took some recommendations from you for certain tours as we are flying in for the half marathon this month. Since we fly in mid day do you have any suggestions for the Petaluma area for early after wine? Thank you!

Back in 2010 or 2011 I was working in the Napa Valley supplying event equipment for business functions and meetings. I got to see a lot of very beautiful wineries, both public and private areas. Del Dotto was a standout memory for the beautiful space which is really unlike anything else I saw in the Valley.

Sorry, I should had waited before mentioning Riesling wines

You left out Riesling wines, Germans, Austrians, can age and improve beautifully for twenty-thirty years

Great video!

I didn't like it- it has no taste

Gorgeous setting. Now tell us about that hat…..🧢

Another fantastic video. Glad I subscribe to your channel. You are very authentic and always have good info about Napa

Always enjoy your wine reviews!

I've been a bartender for about the past 5 summer seasons here in Tahoe but wine was mostly an afterthought at the bars and resorts I've worked. I was just hired to work an a nice wine bar in Truckee so I'm trying to get a crash course on all things wine so this series is very helpful.

Not true. The majority of Sommeliers, if you’re good, take on nice positions in liquor stores or grocery stores…….chains! Or become the handler over a hotel chain’s wine cellar. Traveling around the world. As in everything in life, it’s up to you what it is you do with the knowledge you gain.

I need this Vidovich. Great reviews!

That’s no hands bridge

Ahahahaahahah I was laughing a lot about the traffic lights ! That’s crazy , always red 😂 anyway… earning around 23$/h is a good range to spend a life there ? I’m an Italian winemaker and I spend last season in Napa , but like you said is a crazy experience! I’m asking to myself if it’s worth move there permanently with that salary

Please put up photo of the wines you mentioned, for people that not familiar with them. Thanks

Thank you!

Pan and hand only in Auburn SRA, no?

We took the dam tour. Asked some dam questions. And got some dam answers.😂

Have you had the 2019 vintage of these wines?

Wow, this is great information. Thanks 😊

Thank you!!

I think I paid $95 for the Napa Valley.

Where is the best place to sign up. ? I am in Orange county.

Very informative for us first timers - you didn’t mention the Wine Train. Would you recommend it as an option?

Hello sir

Hello sir

I'm a bit puzzled why you reference a 14.2%ABV being too high. I assume that high ABV wines are produced from absolutely ripe grapes. Am I wrong in this assumption?

When is harvest?

Great video content thank you for your honesty, clarity and wisdom. You are so right when I tell people I'm a Sommelier they are always reacting: oh waow so cool 😎. What a dream job. You must taste so many wines. Do you taste them all? What is your favourite wine? You know I'm sure you have been there too. But like you said a restaurant Sommelier works restaurant times and services which are usually 2 per day with a tiny break or no break in the middle. If I may add I would say it's a job that requires passion. If you are not deeply passionate and curious about wines then don't become a working Sommelier. If you just want to drink wine for" free " don't work as a sommelier.

I’d love to see a video review of Venge Cabernets….one of my favorites. I really enjoy your videos!

That is a serious yellow hose. I just drank one of my 2009 Del Dotto's the other day!

Soooooo good 🍷

I’m already subscribed! Rivers-Marie wines are fantastic! Love the Pinot and Chardonnay too!

Another great video. Sounds fantastic! On a side note, I have only anicdotal evidence of this but I feel like the crazy price increases we have seen in most higher end Napa producers is starting to slow down a bit. Are you seeing that too? It’s not that prices are coming down, but I am seeing many 2021 releases combing out with the same prices as 2019.

I’ve been waiting for this “stuff” for six months as well! 😂 although I’m on the east coast so they are still en route! Thanks for the tease! I did a tasting there back in October and can’t watch for my shipment next week!

Thx for the review!! I’ll look for this one

Great review

I found this incredibly helpful! I'd love to get your take on pursuing a production role in Europe, particularly in Italy. I'm on track to graduate with a business degree next year and I'm contemplating whether I should pursue a master's degree, perhaps in viticulture or enology, or obtain a WSET certification. My goal is to aim high and work my way up the ladder, so I want to start off on the right foot. I've had the chance to live in Alsace for a year, where I received some basic grape and wine knowledge from my professor. Since then, I've been working for a small family vineyard in Switzerland, alongside a few years of hospitality experience in England. Thank you!

Hi used to work in a winery in Napa for 7 years: 5 years in the bottling line as a line worker and in 1 year and 9 months in the EHS department. I got laid off from the EHS department due to downsizing. I am interesed in get back into the wine industry and the bottling line. Is there any winery out there that i can apply to?

That’s not a porcini man

Incredible!!

It's all a hype and the general public doesnt even care. As long as you can do your job after WSET L3 is already good enough. The rest of your career as a sommelier is about learning by doing. It's just a load BS. This is a fact.

It’s not a valley, it’s a canyon! Incredible!

Neat video Tom... beautiful piece of earth.... And you're looking good 👍 Dad

Dav deldotto fleecing anerican consumers with his outdated realesrate seninar books since 1986 !

I know it's not a sub-Appellation, but I really love Conn Valley at the foot of Howell Mountain. Great wineries and beautiful bucolic countryside.

Great video
