Napa Valley Film Festival

In 2011 I got to work on something really special. It's not everyday that you get to work with a good friend on a project that has heart and is truly something unique. That project is a documentary called SOMM, a film about four master sommelier candidates as they prepare to take the hardest test of their lives, and arguably one of the hardest tests in the world.

The film opened the Napa Valley Film Festival (to rave reviews!) and my friend Crystal and I attended the invite only world premiere screening. We got decked out in red carpet attire, drank insanely expensive champagne and had a great time.

One of my favorite parts of the quick trip was hanging out at the vineyard house with the cast and crew. Wine was flowing like water (and water was actually kinda hard to find) and the men were in the kitchen whipping up a meal that was simply to.die.for.

Turns out getting a bunch of master sommeliers and their friends in the kitchen armed with fresh produce from the farmer's market makes for some of the most amazing food of your life.

Love, Luck, and Happiness!
