Vineyard in Santa Rosa, CA

Santa Rosa is the largest city in California's Wine Country. While the most expansive vineyards in both Sonoma and Napa Counties lie on unincorporated county land or within outlying cities, away from U.S. Route 101, this image of a smaller vineyard in Santa Rosa illustrates the City's continuing ties to the wine industry.

Self-taken in July, when the plants and berries are in early bloom (before the width of the vines nearly obliterates the planting pattern) while the hillsides demonstrate the effects of the summer sun.

Just a couple notes. This picture is looking east from Old Redwood Hwy at the Siebert Vineyard. The address is 4120 Old Redwood Hwy. The location is outside (but close to) the city limits. The grapes are pinot noir. The appellation is Russian River Valley. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kmslogos (talkcontribs) 19:58, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
