    "Thank you to everyone for their heart-felt support during this difficult time. Your calls, social media comments, emails and wine orders are very much appreciated. I am thankful for your support of the Castle and honored that you continue to purchase and enjoy our wine which will help sustain the castle during this horrible time.
    I am thankful that no one was injured and want you to know that we are strong and resilient, and we will overcome this tragedy. Our hearts go out to our friends and neighbors, some of whom have suffered great losses. We are forever grateful for the hard work and dedication of the brave fire fighters and the first responders.
    While the Castle is currently closed, we are already hard at work repairing systems and getting back on our feet. We expect to resume shipping your wine orders by the end of the week and to reopen the Castle within a week for wine tasting.
    I am looking forward to putting this disaster behind us and hosting you again at the Castle soon. "
    - Dario Sattui

      Don't be sad. My dad built this castle almost singlehandedly. When he died, the owner didn't even put up so much as a single tiny plaque commemorating my father's work that made him so obscenely rich. Watching it burn is darryl sattui's shitty karma, plain and simple.

      Thats a strang arson..... More like microwave arson to me.... Only thing that gets really affected are man made things.... and isnt it strange how the wind magickally starts right before fires break out? Even in Oregon here where we don't diablo winds or santa anna winds.... first winds pick up, then fires break out!

    I heard that many 2020 vintages were already spoiled due to fire a month ago. The grapes smelled of smoke and toxic fumes from august fires in Napa and Sonoma counties. Especially the more delicate and thin skin grapes. SO SAD for all vintners in the area and for their great losses. WE MUST ADDRESS GLOBAL WARMING WITH MORE REVERENCE.

      Until you understand the science, no productive action can be taken to address the current changes in climate. The planet is NOT warming and hasn't been for a decade. Temps were much hotter in the 20s, 30s, and mid 1900's. There are much bigger scarier issues at work here. None of them are caused or controlled by humans. Pls study the real science. The warming propaganda is dangerous to you and all of humanity. I suggest you start with a bit of astrophysics. Go to the Suspicious Observers yt channel and watch the video Catastrophe Cycle for starters. That will be very eye-opening. Best to prepare.

I wonder if Spain has the same problem, castle in a similar fire environment for hundred of years burning down, from nature, not man, thoughts to ponder....or another theory is there an agenda...

    • @Sovereign_Citizen_LEO
      @Sovereign_Citizen_LEO Před 3 lety +1

      There is definitely an agenda. But thus-far, there is no evidence one way or the other, as to what or who caused these fires. I will say though, that it's very suspicious, that several fires started at the same time, in the same area, and then presumably "merged" as the media has reported, because of wind/ weather conditions. Not to mention the fact that there have been devastating fires there every year. Whereas in the past they were rare. Brainwashed fools will say this is because of Global Warming or Climate Change. But neither of those are responsible for fires.

    Climate change requires a new mechanized fire fighting strategy. We need a whole squadron of fire-fighter aircrafts to bomb these fires before they get out of control. The excuse to let small fires get big because the terrain is too steep must be deal with. It is happening month after month and year after year. More ground fire fighters is NOT the solution. We don't need more human fire fighters, we need many many more fire-fighter aircraft and the support and air control network. California should ground all commercial airplanes in the the fire areas and only let fire-fighter aircrafts to dominant the sky and dominant the fire. Status quo of Calfire is NOT acceptable.
