The weather continues to be spectacular in Napa. A few of cool mornings have given way to afternoon temperatures into the low 80s: a threat of rain did not materialise this past Wednesday. So Vinomaker and I continue to quaff chilled white wines, one of which is the ever pleasant Laird Family Estate, 2014 Pinot Grigio. With screw cap-ease, sunsets are appreciated, navels are contemplated and all is right with the world. Sigh.
Vinsanity ● n. a deranged state of mind usually occurring when the love of wine drives you crazy…so call me a cab.

I love slow-motion halcyon days, the kind that heal the soul! Cheers!

I am still picking figs off our two trees. That is unheard of in this part of the world at this time.
Tomasso: It has been a lovely autumn here so far, except my tomatoes ended earlier than usual.
