winerdrinker Oakland, CA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #3 Nov 26, 2008 Mondavi has been established long long ago. Now the business need money to continue their livehood. Hard to believe...
JAMES M Fort Bragg, CA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #4 Nov 27, 2008 Wow.. the only way to make money these days is to open up a smokeshop, a liquor store, selling drugs, or prostitution. Mabey Robert Mondavi should open up a brothel in napa... Then, his only competition would be the one in benicia.
umyeah Albany, CA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #5 Nov 27, 2008 Unfortunately Copia was doomed from the beginning. Overpriced admission, overpriced restaurant, a program and entertainment director with no clue. The best Copia had to offer were the gardens. The structure and all inside was ultimately vacuous. How could Napa alone support it ? As a tourist destination it was overlooked in favor of the wineries and Yountville.

I remember paying $25 for a ticket and for what? It's an amazing facility, so now hopefully someone will have a better vision of what it could be and it will work next time around. umyeah wrote: Unfortunately Copia was doomed from the beginning.

James M Fort Bragg, CA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #10 Nov 29, 2008 Yeah, I remember going there in 2001 and it costs 25 dollars to taste one glass of wine. The workers were A-holes. I would rather go to V. Sutti Winery. I paid 5 dollars to taste 5 glasses of wine. WOW what a deal. Plus, V. Sutti has a tasty deli, a cheese shop, and lastly, a souvenir shop.

This is a great day for fixing things that have gone wrong. If there have been ructions in your relationship with a certain person this is when you can sort things out and get them back on track. If an appliance or gadget is going on the blink, this is your cue to either get it mended or chuck it out and replace it. You may also find time to tidy up your immediate surroundings or take all those bottles and papers to your nearest recycling center. How virtuous you'll feel when it's all done!
