Signorello Estate Winery/Brannan's Grill

Pierre Birebent has a french wine making back ground and many premiere fruit sources.Here we have three features with chardonnay,Seta,and their estate Cabernet.All these wines are paired up perfectly with the cuisine of chef Greg Elliott of Brannan's Grill.Brannan's Grill is located in Calistoga at the north end of the Napa Valley.Calistoga is a great destination with world class wineries ,restaurants and spas. There are two features here one with the Seta and the chardonnay.The second feature is the Cabernet feature.These wines are made well.but this winery is a must stop to AVOID!The lady that runs the tasting room has gone through dozens of employees and every one off them will tell horror stories of a winery run by people that have little to zero idea what they are doing!The wines and tasting are way over priced and why would anyone want to put up with incompetent staff.In most cases,it's not the staff's fault.They are always brand new,and ever changing.It seems the winery is just a place to not visit or work at.Life is too short and the Napa Valley is an amazing place filled with great stops,but this is a MUST to AVOID!Brannan's yes,Signorello zero!/NO!
