Castello di Amorosa | Napa Valley | Calistoga {Part 1}

While the entirety of my vacation was wonderful, for me the high point was, without a doubt, the day we visited the Castello di Amorosa. I was able to arrange a private tour to shoot in the caves for about four hours! I played with long exposures in dark places with wine barrels and dusty bottles, and all sorts of cool stuff. It was AWESOME!

We arrived about 45 minutes early, prior to opening, to explore the grounds without too many people milling about.

I captured SO many photos at il Castello that I decided to break this post into two (sorry to those who were expecting pictures of dusty wine bottles!!)…check back tomorrow for the rest of my photos from INSIDE the castle!
