No18 : Winery tour
1:OPUS ONE
2:STAG'S LEAP 
3:Kenzo Estate
I was really surprised at the luxury of Opus One Winery. I didn't make a reservation at Stag's Leap Winery, so I couldn't tasting wine. I enjoyed wine and sandwiches at Kenzo Estate.

When we come to Napa Valley, wine tasting is a must. Finding a winery to visit is no longer a novelty. Taking a train to visit Napa Valley is the most leisurely and enjoyable way to do it. Enjoy the beautiful scenery of Napa Valley while sipping wine. I really like the sentence on the sign …and the wine is bottled poetry… Even if we cannot pursue excessive achievements, we must enjoy every moment in life.

Charles Krug Winery, St. Helena (No. 1)
The Charles Krug Winery is a winery founded by Charles Krug in 1861. It was named to the National Register of Historic Places on November 8, 1974.
Historically, Charles Krug introduced innovative ideas in California winemaking. He began making wine using a cider press for pressing, carefully selected rootstocks, varietals and vineyard sites. The knowledge he gained and shared benefited the young California wine industry. Following Krug's death, James Moffitt Sr. purchased the winery in 1894. In 1943, Robert Mondavi persuaded his parents, Cesare and Rosa Mondavi, to purchase the inactive winery from Moffitt for $75,000.
The winery remains owned by the family of Peter Mondavi, Robert's brother.

Napa Valley Pollution
Napa Valley, California, is home to over 1,800 wineries, representing 0.4% of the world’s wine grape production. While it pales in comparison to the largest vineyard in the world at 105,000 hectares, Napa Valley still has 18,667 hectares involved in cultivation.
It produces about 49.7 million cases of wine annually and has an estimated 34 billion dollar impact on the U.S. economy.
So why is it at risk?
The Pollution
The vineyards and wineries of Napa Valley are facing a pollution problem.
The Clover Flat Landfill (CFL) opened in 1963 to accept various local waste. It still takes in many types of waste like propane tanks, couches, and ovens, with a fee for certain kinds. The CFL is reportedly now able to recycle 50% of what it takes in. Its website also states that it currently operates at net zero emissions, meaning it makes up for the carbon emissions that it produces. It does, in fact, capture the methane gas that it produces to recycle it into electricity.
Pollution is more than just carbon dioxide, though.
Irresponsibly reported contamination and hazards at the CFL have come to light in recent months. One example is the misreported impact of the 2020 Glass Fire in California. While management of the CFL (the Pestoni family, at the time) claimed minimal impact, surfaced emails reveal that the measures to restrict erosion, eliminate sedimentation release, and manage storm water attenuation were completely destroyed. The article detailing this and other allegations, including the referenced emails, is linked here.
The CFL is to the north of Napa Valley and near two tributaries that flow to Napa River. This landfill is the primary source of the pollution the valley is facing. Increasing amounts of evidence indicate that the CFL has polluted these waterways with toxins from waste.
These toxins include chemicals and metals, such as nitrates, chromium, arsenic, iron, and zinc.
The Effects
Chromium and arsenic are potently toxic on their own, but the other pollutants listed are also very harmful if high amounts are in contact with or consumed by humans.
While studies and officials report that the waterways around Napa Valley are considered polluted, little is reported about how this might affect wine production. Many vineyards and wineries in Napa Valley refused to comment on the situation.
Waters polluted with heavy metals and chemicals can cause food to become contaminated, but the specific nature of grape cultivation and its water demands make these impacts difficult to report on.
We do know that recreation has been significantly impacted. People who fish and canoe in the Napa River have expressed concerns, and the California Sportfishing Protection Alliance even sued the CFL in 2022 for violations of the Water Pollution Control Act. In 2023, the CFL agreed to implement new erosion control measures, test stormwater, and train employees to improve pollution control.
Landfill pollution affects life in the waterways, decreasing aquatic life presence and leading to unknown results of long-term stream pollution.
Investigations into the CFL’s continued practices are ongoing. Hopefully in time we will have more details for how pollution may have affected grape cultivation in Napa Valley.

Pine Derby
“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practise resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of…

Take A Secret Garden Tour at one of the Top Wineries in Yountville - Hill Family Estate
While winemaking is obviously important to the quality of the wine, it all starts with the vine. Wine is first and foremost an agricultural product. It is easy to make bad wine out of good grapes, but it is impossible to make good wine out of bad grapes!
