2013 Fall Color Almost Gone

Live from Howell Mountain ...

Driving through the valley just an hour ago, I was a little disappointed.  The fall color appears to be on the same schedule as the fall harvest.  It appears that the best of the autumn color was washed off the vines in the last rain and wind events.  While a few colorful leaves still cling to the vines, the vineyards are mostly reduced to stringy stumps.  Don't visit Napa Valley this Thanksgiving holiday to catch the autumn color.  Come instead to enjoy some excellent wines.
