I don't know what the traffic stats are for the wine blog THE ZINQUISITION.
However, I do know it should be higher than it is, higher than most wine blogs in fact, given the quality of the posts that St. Vini puts together.

Seems to me that "the real estate bubble" affects Napa as well. Don't know how relevant it is , but farm land (irrigable land) in New Mexico can be bought for $1400 an acre in some places still. Having said that it's still very expensive (in my country state of mind) to buy land and grow grapes here. I think the real estate crash is coming nationwide.

Thanks for the props Tom (and a big kiss to you too Bill/Caveman). Its interesting that vineyard land values are often counter cyclical to home values - vineyards were flat during most of the recent home-value runup here in California. I think the levers of vineyard value are pretty different from those affect home values and I don't think vineyard values are primed for the same bubble effect.
