Jacuzzi Family Vineyards and Winery FastMix, Sonoma Valley, California, USA
The Jacuzzi Family Vineyards & Winery owns and farms grapes at its estate in Sonoma-Carneros and the Sonoma Coast appellation, specifically the Petaluma Gap.
Carneros stretches across the cool southern extremities of both Sonoma and Napa counties while it touches the historic flatlands north of San Pablo Bay. Jacuzzi Family Vineyards sits on 190 acres at Arnold Drive in Sonoma-Carneros.
Pacific fog and coastal wind are what sets this appellation apart. In the scorching afternoons, bay winds glide over the vineyards, mitigating the blistering California heat. The vines are planted in volcanic soil and adobe clay. This area is best known for producing outstanding Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. It's also been a great growing region for our Barbera and Sangiovese.
History:
The Jacuzzi trek to America started in 1907, when Valeriano and Francesco Jacuzzi, the second- and third-born sons of Giovanni and Teresa Jacuzzi, immigrated to Washington to work on the railroad. A warmer climate beckoned and the pair eventually made their way to southern California. Years later, they were joined by four other brothers and eventually all went to work in the aviation industry. Soon they would make American history.
In 1911 their father, Giovanni, a skilled wood worker and vineyard farmer joined them. Two weeks was enough to convince him that his sons would never go back. He then returned to Italy with Valeriano to gather up the rest of the family.
World War I intervened and the trip was delayed until the war's end. During this time, Valeriano had met Giuseppina and fell in love, married and had their first child. Valeriano's new family, parents and remaining siblings departed from Italy in 1920.
Soon after their arrival in early 1921, Valeriano started working with his brothers at their Jacuzzi Brothers factory. A tragic crash, over Modesto, of Jacuzzi's first enclosed monoplane took several lives, including that of Valeriano's brother, Giocondo. At this time, Giovanni asked his sons to cease making planes. Valeriano moved his family to Northern California and purchased a 161-acre farm in Contra Costa County.
During the depression, Valeriano, with help from his older children, planted a portion of the open farm fields with grapes and in 1936 he applied for a license to make wine for home consumption. At that time he was limited to 200 gallons (approximately 84 cases). The vineyard was planted to Zinfandel, Carignane and Mourvedre and he sold grapes for $30-$35 a ton.
In 1937, Valeriano returned to work with his brothers at Jacuzzi Brothers, Inc. located in Berkeley, CA where they manufactured water well pumps and eventually, the bath and spa that bears their name.

Bartholomew Park Winery
Lately I've been riding my bike up to the Bartholomew Park Winery and today (May 23, 2009) I took some video to show how pretty it is there!
Bartholomew Park Winery is situated in the heart of the 400-acre Bartholomew Memorial Park in Sonoma. A visit to the winery includes a sampling of Bartholomew Parks premium wines, access to vineyard-view picnic grounds, hiking trails, and a museum chronicling the propertys illustrious history and current grape growing practices.
The picnic grounds at Bartholomew Park overlook the vineyards and a replica of Agoston Haraszthys Palladian Villa which was destroyed by fire around the turn of the century.
In the hills behind the winery are approximately three miles of marked hiking trails. A variety of indigenous California vegetation -- oak groves, manzanita, madrone, redwood-shaded fern grottos, and fields of spring wildflowers -- provides visitors with a generous sampling of the visual delights and natural beauty of Sonoma County. On a clear day, the view from Bartholomew Parks trails extends to San Francisco.
The Palladian Villa is open Saturday and Sunday from 12 p.m. until 3 p.m.

My Staycation - DoubleTree by Hilton in Tempe, AZ
Get your free Lucrative Self Actualization Checklist -
-----
Hey there - It's Stacey here,
I hope you’re having a great weekend so far! This weekend is a long holiday weekend in the United States—in celebration of Labor Day.
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, Labor Day is a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.
…and when you labor in love-- “work” doesn’t seem like work!
However, I can be quite “Type-A” when it comes to being productive and getting things done— and find myself overworking!
…and working from home makes it so very easy to be excessively hard-charging.
A couple of weeks ago, I felt the need to change things up and get away for a couple of days. I didn’t require anything fancy, or a lot of planning and travel.
So, I went to over to Groupon.com and searched for local hotels. I found one and booked 2 days (at a great price)!
I even booked a Monday check-in (to avoid any potential party revelers). LOL!
View my 2-day staycation video tour here (you may notice my smart phone camera tripod in front of the couch. I thought I'd make it a “work” staycation. I know. I know. Fortunately though, the only real work I did was record a voiced-over webinar video).
Sometimes, it can be hard for me to stay in bed at night because of the many ideas and projects I’m working or want to do.
…Which means when an idea pops in my mind, I immediately want to hop out of bed and head over to my laptop and start working again. Most times when this happens, I just grab my phone and type out what I’m thinking about on a notepad app, for the next day.
BUT… I will admit that sometimes I have gotten out of bed between the hours of 1 am and 3 am to write content for a course or book. This could be considered workaholism according to an article in Harvard Business Review (HBR).
The HBR piece suggests that workaholism is “being overly concerned about work, driven by an uncontrollable work motivation, and investing so much time and effort to work that it impairs other important life areas.”
That being said, some entrepreneurs wear “24/7 hustle” as a badge of honor. However, in the long term, working yourself to the bone and burning your candle at both ends doesn’t serve you.
There’s no need to burn yourself out in pursuit of your goals. What good are you to yourself or anyone else if you don’t take care of yourself?!
So, take some time to chill this weekend. :0)
… and be sure to make time to rest and relax all year long (holiday weekend or not).
To your visible and sustained success,
Stacey
