First red grapes of #harvest2022 today. Very unusual vintage, for reds to start with both Pinot Noir (from Carneros) & Cabernet Sauvignon (from Calistoga) arriving on the same day - never seen that before - they're usually weeks apart. #NapaHarvest #NapaValley

bees buzzing amongst the mustard blooms in the vineyard, braving the chilly Napa Valley air, this bright sunny day.
