This is good news, particularly since 2012 and 2013 were poor years in Burgundy, the Loire, and Bordeaux.

I don’t think you checked the excerpt box. Note to others - there are many other California wine regions discussed at the source link.

"California winegrowers up and down the coast are celebrating a long, sunny year."

Shucks, I was SO looking forward to another perpetually cloudy, dreary, rainy and cold California summer. We just get way too many of the long, sunny kind here.

Just about every year in CA is good. If fact you generally have to really screw up badly to make a bad wine here, especially red wine. White is a bit touchier, but still, even the bad years are pretty good.

Does this mean climate change has spared the vineyards?
