Friday's snowstorm made for an inconvenient start to a new era at Memento Mori winery in Calistoga.
Road closures and traffic kept employees from making it to the boutique cabernet producer's new property on Azalea Springs Way. The power was out for much of the day. "Unexpected. I'm from the Midwest originally and it was like waking up back at home and I haven't experienced that in quite a long time," said estate director Travis Retherford.
"And instead, spent a lot of time trying to figure out this relatively new property, get things up and running, a lot of time trying to figure out how to connect with people, because we didn't have phones, electricity, internet," he said. About 15 miles away, at CADE Estate in Angwin, video showed one winemaker having fun with the fresh powder by snowboarding down a driveway between rows of vines.
The CHP said Highway 29 is likely to remain closed from Tubbs Lane north to the Lake County line through the weekend due to hazardous road conditions.
