Napa Valley, California
|
This was my third year back at the Taste3 Conference, and I missed the presence of Robert Mondavi---especially his awesome, totemic head and great shirts. The man was the suavest wheelchair passenger I've ever seen, with a constant straw going from his lips to a ruby glass of Cabernet. |
Fog blowers like this one are positioned throughout the vineyards in Napa Valley. Because apparently sometimes you want fog on your grapes, but at other times, you absolutely don't want fog. Something about freezing dew. |

I ditched most of the after-party and wandered off into the vineyards, finally getting to the foothills, the mockingbirds and the oak trees. Thanks, bench. |
