We recently returned from the 2017 Wine Bloggers Conference<\/a> held in Santa Rosa, CA. \u00a0Santa Rosa is located in Sonoma County. \u00a0Parts of Santa Rosa were directly impacted by the October, 2017 Wildfires. \u00a0Yes, we saw fire damage. \u00a0We heard stories from panelist who were directly impacted by the wildfires. \u00a0Yes, there is recovery in progress. \u00a0However, taken as a whole, the wine industry survived pretty much in tack.<\/p>\n

Napa and Sonoma are open for business. \u00a0Most vineyards saw little to no damage. \u00a0So, if you’re able, go visit. \u00a0Help revive the tourist economy on which these areas depend.<\/p>\n

Below are some images we took during our trip. \u00a0They show a beautiful region that’s still extremely picturesque. \u00a0We have a new found respect for this region and its wines. \u00a0We look forward to enjoying the wines we purchased and visiting again in the future!<\/p>\n
