  1. This is my favorite road in wine country. It travels down the Napa and Sonoma border on the top of the western edge of the Mayacamas Range. This view is looking north. On the right is the Napa Mt Veeder AVA. On the left is the Sonoma Moon Mountain AVA. The road ends at the Random Ridge Vineyards and the Hanna Bismarck Knob Vineyards. It goes past Skye Vineyards and there is a good view of the Mayacamas Vineyards to the east. Best to have 4wd. #WineCountry #Sonoma #Napa

    Tasty, but also increasingly nuanced and complex at this point in its life, this might be its best showing for me. No rush drinking them. Plenty of life left.

    🍷🍷I am a bit into Napa the last couple of weeks, but this wasn't drunk with the others, so I'll post the others in due course separately, including mature Morlet, Beringer, Schrader.

    $100+ these days, but it wasn't back then.

Although most sites are forecast to remain below flood stage, some locations may reach monitor stage, especially in Sonoma County & Santa Cruz County. Ensemble guidance shows a greater than 25 percent chance of reaching #flood stage on the Russian River at Guerneville & monitor stage on the San Lorenzo River at Big Trees by Thursday.

  10. Interesting summary from Eleanor Frajka-Williams about how understanding of #AMOC has changed through time...
    There is definitely an analogy with how understanding of #IceSheets has also changed with more #observations, especially in our case #EO or in case of #AMOC the #Rapid #napa and #SAMBA arrays #OceanIceKO #OceanIceEU
