- From what I have seen, this could be a truly wonderful year for Napa Valley. The warm summer, followed by a lingering Autumn could lead to some truly amazing grapes. I have always wanted to be a part of the wine making process. Adopt a Grape is the next best thing to being there. Thanks, guys!

- My dream would be to visit my block at bud break, visit my grape as it matures, pick my grape and crush it, fill and cork my wine in the bottle, then sit in block 6 and drink the entire bottle. Gerard Braud Mandeville, LA

- Wow this is very visionary and what a marketing tool! i have adopted a block and have my own small vineyard in Wilton,CA.(Lodi) appelation and its truly a wonderful feeling to walk amongst the vines as they go thru seasonal changes, it is also a learning tool, without taking classes, very close to managing ones own vines. the terrior speaks for itself so i know the wine is worth the buy, and allows us -the- public a hands on experience! what a concept ! my wife Sonja and i will visit soon.
