Signs of Spring in Sonoma Valley

  Our winter rainy season here in Sonoma is known to end early some years and linger through May in others. If you visit at this time of year expect to enjoy mild sunny temperatures mixed with occasional rains and microclimate fog.

Mustard in the Vineyards

Early spring is a time of unmatched beauty in the California Wine Country as the fruit trees burst open and the wild yellow mustard fills the vineyards between the rows of still dormant grape vines. Below are photos of our local landscape at the southern entrance to Sonoma Valley.

What's in Bloom Pink and white plum trees, daffodils, quince, and wildflowers are popping open with an array of color. Calla lily blooms and the blues of Ceanothus are opening as the yellow mustard opens fully. Simply heavenly!
