"I named my vineyard Somnium, which means “dream” in Latin because I thought owning my own winery was something that would just be a dream, but it became a reality," Patrick wrote on the Somnium Wine website.

"I can't tell you how many times I have signed an autograph for a child and added the note—dream big! It is a life motto—it’s how I think, how I live and what I preach! My dreams never stop, and they continue to evolve.

"Now that Somnium is a reality, my next dream is to create an environment and experience where it is easy for others to fall in love with Napa Valley, just like I did so many years ago."
