Apple Update

Just a quick update on the status of the apple harvest, it looks like the Golden Delicious are ready to go in West Sonoma county.  Funny thing about these apples, they are significantly more juicy than the Gravs, and they taste amazing. Apples varietals, just like grapes, are significantly different from each other, despite the fact that they are all genetically (at least to the extent that we can test for) identical. These variations were bred, selected, and cultivated over time to express specific desirable traits -the original genetic engineering!
