It’s that time of year again – when specialty shops suddenly spring into existence reminding us in just a little over two weeks from now Halloween festivities will be in full swing. I like Halloween but I’m a little bored with the usual ways of celebrating – handing out candy to trick-or-treaters, watching horror movies, getting lost in a corn maze, going to friend’s costume party, and carving pumpkins. This year it would be nice to try something new and amazing like The Pagan Ball at Castello di Amorosa.

Castello di Amorosa has many special perks for its wine club members and this is one of them. On October 30, 2010 wine club members and their guests will dance in the Great Hall to Masterpiece, a 12-piece live band; sip Castello di Amorosa wines; enjoy hors d’oeuvres, take a haunted tour inside the castle; and take part in a costume contest. This is no ordinary Halloween party – this a celebration in a 121,000 square foot 13th century-style authentic Tuscan castle with 107 rooms on 171 acres. The castle was constructed using handmade antique bricks and tiles from Europe along with hand-forged ironwork from Italian artisans.

Castello di Amorosa wines are handcrafted Italian style wines such as Pinot Grigio, Sangiovese, Super Tuscan Blends, Castello di Amorosa’s own popular La Fantasia Italian style sparkling wine, and more. The Pagan Ball is the answer to the search for something different and exciting to celebrate the end of Summer. Contact Napa Wine Tours to reserve your private chauffeured transportation for this night of fun and dancing.
