We have lived in Felton for almost 20 years, enjoying a little bit of wilderness in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Resourcefulness is kind of an underlying tone in this area.

EDITOR,

The point system used in wine judging is often viewed with a sense of suspicion and ambiguity. Are the points that are awarded legitimate, and should we care? Many people see a 92 or 93 from Robert Parker or the Wine Spectator and immediately think the wine must be high end. Typically, this is a fair assumption, but just because a wine receives a high rating doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s the right wine for you.
