Fall Colors
Meetings took me to Bucklin's Old Hill Ranch today. You never forget what time of year it is when you step into this vineyard. Will Bucklin tells me that the vibrancy of color that is Fall at Old Hill Ranch is past its peak. I'm not so sure about that. As always, I had the camera with me and took some time following our meeting to poke around the vineyard.
Here are the colors of Fall that crossed my path.




















Thanks so much for the beautiful pictures from Bucklin. They make my favorite Gewurz, and those shots made me feel like I knew the wine on a different level.

Thanks for the great images tom, I was in Santa Barbra wine country this weekend and the colors and feel of the vineyards at this time of year are as memorable and inspiring as the wines.
