Spotted their signature on the guest book 🙂

I am Bob Nelson who married Karen Petersen who is Barbara’s first cousin. They are the daughters of twins, a brother and a sister with Karen’s father being Raymond Petersen. If this is the Robin I think it is he will probably remember his cousin Ted Nelson when we lived in San Jose when kids.

My email address is krnelson63@charter.net

Thanks for your help

Bob Nelson

Most people think my reviews are the actual winery website.

I would love to talk to you about this history and your relation to Lorenz! I’m currently in the Tuamotos but will be back in Napa early October. I do have some other photos of the interior of the home from one of my earlier visits – I’ll see if i can find those when I return. I also know Julie who hosts tastings up at the winery and knows the property fairly well. I can connect you with her if you like. Best regards, Dave

I found your article especially interesting. I’m a direct descendant of Lorenz Peterson. We always had a watercolor of Calarcadia in our home as I was growing up, and I have one myself. I’ve searched for information online before, but with no success. I’m thrilled that the house is in such fabulous shape. When I last saw it, as a teenager, in the 1980’s, it needed care. I was wondering if you had any other pictures of the interior of the house or garden?
