Napa needs to come to terms (and the real world) with their incredibly astonishing costs of visiting. $150 tasting fees, $200-$300 bottle prices for Cabernet and $2000 per night rooms in Yountville. The day of reckoning is arriving sooner rather than later.
we're broke
You forgot to mention that the younger generations drink less alcohol generally. They aren't replacing it with anything; they just don't drink it as much.
As cannabis use goes up, alcohol and hard drug use goes down. The young people are choosing weed over alcohol. A smart move. And way past time. Ethanol is a poor drug.
When $100k/yr is just above the poverty line…nobody has the $ for $20+ bottles of wine
Exactly
20 bucks a bottle @psayre33? That was 30 years ago. Try paying over $100 a bottle in Napa. And $3000 per night for a room at Calistoga resort hotel next weekend Memorial Day! I’d rather go to Bora Bora and save money!
Price inflation is making me think twice about buying a bottle of wine. Just a year ago, I could easily find a nice Cabernet on sale for $10, today I typically have to spend $14 for the very same bottle, even on sale.
Wouldn’t wine become more expensive again after a while due to rarity?
Prices drop when demand goes down.
There are way too many wineries anyway. Restore the areas back to its natural state.
I never developed a taste for wine and it's also expensive. I buy the cheapest bottles of red wine at Costco ($5 -$6) for cooking, though.
we arent lock in out home anymore
Only decent wine out of Lodi are Zinfandel, which isn't very popular to begin with.
Grocery Outlet not a wine person myself.
Portuguese, Argentinian, and Soyrh African wines are 2-3x cheaper than similar quality CA wines. Labor is simply too expensive and profits are too high for CA wineries to be able to compete on price with foreign wines.
Seems like they need to find a new audience. Like when the wine makers flooded the hood in the 60's and 70's.
Im broke
Those vineyards are eyesores. Good riddance
"Climate" change. Oh no.
Ahh climate change we can fix it if we Vote blue guaranteed 😂
