Mustards & Quotes

Hello everyone! With spring around the corner, the view from the office is becoming more beautiful by the day. The pathways between the vineyard rows are filled with bright green grass and small plants where yellow mustard flowers are growing and marking their presence in the landscape. I guess we're watching Planet Earth live!

Aside from all the nature talk, progress with the website has been going well. While we are finalizing the design portion of Salud! Napa, production on the cooking show has begun. Soon we’ll post a teaser episode on our blog. In the meantime, please check out this list we put together of interesting food and wine quotes. Hope you guys like our selection:
