2009 Agricultural Crop Report.

For anybody who may be interested, the 2009 Napa County Crop Report was recently released and can be read online. The report outlines the varieties and acreage of winegrapes grown in the entire county of Napa, the tonnage harvested, and the dollars that exchanged hands - a whopping $495,000,000 plus. Napa winegrapes are big business, but are still only responsible for about 9% of California's total grape production.
It makes for a great read especially if, like me, you are a grape geek.

Promise me you will never degenerate into a grape groupie! A grape geek I can handle.

GRAPE: a five-letter word filled with the promise of immortality (or at least a good night).

Thud: $495 mill. does have quite a nice ring to it, doesn't it?

Lord Roby: No, I'm just a common or garden geek!

Thomas: You have a better night when it spells, W I N E!
