Castello di Amorosa Winery
The exuberant, over-the-top European pretensions of some Napa landlords are immoderately on display at this sublime, huge, medieval-style castle completed in 2007. With its basement dungeon outfitted with antique torture devices, 72-foot-long Great Hall with high coffered ceilings, and 107 guest rooms, Castello di Amorosa gets its reputation more for being a tourist attraction than for its quality wines, which are only sold here. Owner Daryl Sattui also runs the V. Sattui Winery in St. Helena, which regularly overflows with picnickers.
