Phew...it has been a wild weather ride the last few weeks in the Napa Valley.  February arrived with unseasonably warm weather.....82 degrees on Super Bowl Sunday??????  The month go even crazier as the warn turned to cold and our mountains surrounding the winery were covered with snow for days on end and a few flakes even graced our presence on the valley floor.  Lucky for us, the vines were dormant through the up and down temps and we haven't had any frost concerns yet.  We have had calls from all around the country asking if the cold weather has affected the grapes and so far so good.  With the mustard in full bloom and the cherry blossoms waking throughout the valley, we are getting closer to our annual bud break - and hopefully some warmer nights ahead.
