Cactus Flowers

Well it’s not a direct vineyard update - but we witnessed this awesomeness right next to a vineyard in Northern Napa Valley. In addition to being grateful for fresh air and blue skies this past week, we had a chance to see these cactus flowers in full bloom.

One of the seasonal wonders of Napa Valley that we look forward to each year is the yellow mustard.  After the first serious rains of winter - usually in January - these bright yellow flowers, knee-high in height, bloom throughout the vineyards.  Miles of yellow, a sea of flowers divided into waves among the rows of grape vines.
