On behalf of our crack map team, I apologize for the delay in releasing our California Wine Map. It will now be available March 24th. The saddest part is that the map’s been 99% done for the past month and a half . It’s as if we’re trapped in Zeno’s paradox. Or more aptly, that we’ve checked out but can never leave. . .

In the meantime, here’s a small chunk of the map around Ventura Highway. It may come as a surprise that Malibu has two official wine regions – Saddle Rock-Malibu and Malibu-Newton Canyon. Was this the result of Malibu Ken and Malibu Barbie splitting up?
