How will this affect the California wine industry? Hope all wineries that had banking relationships with SVB are okay.

For all the buzz over collectable asset classes, it is easy to forget that over the past decade the S&P outperformed them by miles — even after its recent decline. ft.com/content/05ebc9e2-59e9…

If you were flying JFK - AUK, would you do the new NZ1/2 direct flight? 17+ hrs in the same aluminum tube seems like deep vein thrombosis waiting to happen. But then again, changing planes is a pain...

Close... 99... $350 wine... Mmm, bark... crushed blackberries with subtle blackberries.
Guess how many points? "Crushed blackberries and blueberries with some flowers, such as violets & lavender. Bark, too. Medium-to full-bodied with layers of ripe, refined tannins w/ a cool undertone. Plenty of subtle blackberry & wet-earth undertones. From organically grown grapes
