Astrale e Terra

Had an amazing private tasting experience at Astrale eTerra. Scott Dale is the Hospitality Director and he made us feel immediately at home. The outdoor tasting terrace is beautifully positioned with a view of the lower vineyards. All of the wine (especially the Cabernet Sauvignon) was amazing and we especially enjoyed the opportunity to go down into the vineyard and taste some of the grapes that were within hours of being harvested.
Thank you Scott for an experience we will not soon forget, and I can’t wait to get my first shipment! :-)

Astrale e Terra was pouring wine at a Unilocal event. This wine was very refreshing, and smooth. I got a business card. I’m going to Napa the weekend following Thanksgiving. Maybe I can score a winery tour.

These people make awesome wine.
They don’t have a tasting room but if you’re lucky, and know the right people, you might just score an invite up to the property for some tasting and a look around.
The property, up at the top of Atlas Peak off the Silverado Trail, is stunning, the vineyard dog is friendly and cute and the wine is great. I loved them so much I joined their wine club. Trust me, next time you find yourself up this way shoot them an email, see if you can’t make arrangements to head up their way. You’ll be happy you did!

I got invited to MacArthur Park event in Palo Alto as Ron L. plus 1 last Summer. I got to try this wine out & ever since I became a fan. Their wines are aged well, smooth, good depth, & so reasonable in price.
Another reason why I love this winery is that’s a family owned for decades, one of the rare wineries that do not open to all public but by appointment only!
I was shock at so many Unilocalers there at the event, no one bought a single bottle but myself?
Their Cabernet Sauvignon is my FAV for less then $ 50, another outstanding bottles 90 – 93 points from Wine Spectator is unheard of! Their wines are consistent and the price hasn’t change much even all the good rating they got.
They also offer wine clubs with discount for members. Please check out their website for special promotions monthly!
I hope its not before long they raise the price because of the public gets to know this wine! Definitely a rare find in my book & definitely thank you Unilocal for discovery this one! Great choice!
