One of the highlights of this past week was having dinner with Bob Travers, the man who hired me for my first Napa Valley job, Assistant Winemaker at Mayacamas Winery.

We had some good news last week, when I learned from our old friend Daniel Brunier that he was going to be in California for a few days.

We were obviously delighted a week or so ago when we heard from ‘Wine Enthusiast’ magazine that they had singled out our 2021 Sage Canyon Red for some recognition, awarding it a score of 92 POINTS.

The Neyers Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards, starting from the top elevation of 800′, looking due south to vines planted along Conn Creek at an elevation of 400′. Our house sits in the middle, surrounded by redwood trees. The wine cellar juts out to the left, from the outside structure.It’s full of delicious wine that I am working hard to consume.
