Now that the fires in Mendocino County are out, color spotters have returned to photographing fall color.
Walt Gabler found Mendocino County’s vineyards to be full of color and Near Peak. As is typical of vineyards, some vines are past peak, others patchy and still others near or at peak.
Walt visited the Nelson Family Vineyards and Saracina Vineyards between Hopland and Ukiah along Highway 101, then traveled the Old River Road along the Russian River between Hopland and Ukiah and near Talmadge along Old River Road, just outside Ukiah.
Hopland/Ukiah – Near Peak (50-75%) GO NOW!
