  Wild mustard fills the rows between bare vines from mid-January and is usually best in February. It is the quietest and cheapest stretch of the valley's year, and the only one where you can walk into a tasting room. Fuente ↗

  Late summer and autumn are when Northern California burns, and 2017 and 2020 both cost the valley part of a vintage. Smoke can shut the tasting rooms and the power with them under a shutoff. Fuente ↗
