The feather-like stitch pattern of this Aran Lace stole prompted the name of Atlas Peak. Hawks fly high over this appellation in Napa Valley!

The Atlas Peak appellation is best known for outstanding Cabernet Sauvignan, but other varietals include Cabernet Franc, Chardonnay, Malbec, Marsanne, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Sangiovese, Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah and Zinfandel.

I’m absolutely heartbroken over the devastation in Northern California wine country caused by the various wild fires. I’ve already donated to relief efforts, but would like to share with you a PDF I made of links about donating.
