Bella Vino is great wine shop in the area. I know the owner through various family and friends, so she invited me to take some photographs of an event that featured both a wine tasting and a lecture by George Taber. A journalist by trade, he was the only reporter present at the 1970 tasting in France that established Napa Valley in the world of wine. He gave a great presentation, signed copies of his Judgment of Paris, and chatted. And the wine was pretty good.
