Rain, rain, please don't go away!

Look at those droplets of goodness!

We've never been so happy to see gray skies. And these clouds definitely have very valuable silver linings.
Our current drought situation, which has recently been declared the worst in California since the winter of 1976-77 is finally being mitigated by a full day of steady rain. And it's predicted to continue through Sunday!

At Peju, we aren't in a horrible position water-wise just yet, as our vineyards are organically and sustainably farmed, and thus dry farmed whenever possible. But the prospect of zero rain this year was a scary one nonetheless, so we are celebrating today.

We suggest you open a bottle of Peju and pray for toast to more rain this weekend! It will mean a higher production of amazing wine from the 2014 vintage and in years to come!

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood
