Glad you liked the hike at Rockaway and I am happy to hear that you enjoyed Doug. He's a wealth of info and insight, for sure. The one thing I want to clarify is that we believe that Rockaway is one of our best vineyards, certainly not one that we'll want to sell. It, along with the others you mention, Brother's Ridge and Alexander's Crown, are our very best. Cheers! Hey there. Glad you liked the hike at Rockaway and I am happy to hear that you enjoyed Doug.

Cheers-- will try to stay in touch & if Guillermo Payet of Local Harvest can find time to meet, I should be in Santa Cruz sometime just before or just after Thanksgiving.
