In what has become tradition, we stopped by Elyse to order our annual supply of Zin and to buy a few magnums to drink at dinner while we were in Napa. Hands down, my favorite Zinfandel is made by Elyse Winery. It's very small and off the beaten path but their wine is excellent. They also produce some terrific Cabernet.
My husband found an Elyse Cab on a wine list while at a business dinner in New York. He ordered it and it was a big hit with his colleagues.
This year we drank 2 magnums of Elyse's Howell Mountain Zin during dinner at Auberge du Soleil. Two of our dinner guests were French wine fans but they LOVED the Elyse.
Next time you're in Napa, make a point to stop by Elyse. You won't be disappointed.
