What are some Napa wineries that produce old world style reds? I’m not a big fan of the ripe, jammy stuff.

Cain is often compared to more old world style. You may want to look for AVAs with higher elevation and on the the valley floor. Spring Mountain and Howell Mountain come to mind.

The challenge with Napa is that with the warmer weather you get riper fruit and thus, big jammy wines.

Other problem is they pick too late - earlier picking will provide balance and acidity. Napa used to do this in the ‘70s

I made a salad with cucumber and sprouts because that was what I had in my fridge.
Also had some leftover dairy free chicken pot pie filling (we had it on top of parsnip mash last night.)
And a slice of baguette with some exorbitantly priced French butter.

I went through six rounds of interviews including putting together a 30 minute presentation which I presented to the whole team. The whole process took about six weeks. I turned down another lead position at a different company waiting. After all that they told me that hiring for this role was on hold until further notice. At the end of the day it’s business, but I am left feeling like I wasted my time (and theirs.)Totally confused and disheartened by this process. Anyone else experiencing this?

Ribeiro: LOVE this wine region from the Galicia region of Spain but it’s hard to find anything coming out of this place. Not to be confused with Ribera del Duero, known for Vega Sicilia, lot of white wine cones from this region. The Treixadura grape is prominent, and it has granite soils and a rich bubblegum like flavor. Lovely minerality and acidity.
