Charles Krug and the Napa Valley Wine Train

June 27, 2016

During my last trip to Napa, I had an opportunity to take the Napa Valley Wine Train all the way up to Charles Krug Winery as part of the Live in the Vineyard concert series.  We were treated to amazing food, wine and music. We The Kings, went car by car performing throughout the trip (if you haven’t been listening to them you should be).

We were greeted at Charles Krug, the oldest commercial winery in Napa, with a 2015 St. Helena Sauvignon Blanc in the courtyard. Perfect wine for a warm day. I plan on “revisiting” this this summer in Colorado.

We were then escorted inside, where we had the pleasure of tasting the 2013 Limited Release Malbec (my fav), the 2012 Family Reserve Generations and the 2012 Vintage Select Cabernet Sauvignon (all of which were amazing).

All of these wines were paired with some amazing food.  I ate these little steak sandwiches like candy. I can’t wait to recreate for my next dinner party!
