videoVineyard Views | Sunsets on Pritchard Hill Across the Seasons
Sunsets unfold across Pritchard Hill as each season brings its own light to the vineyards. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL068UMwCb_ujCIdqOKFwhrqXAwP3fU_rU This film is devoted entirely to evening light at Chappellet. From the soft greens of spring to the golden depth of harvest and the quiet tones of winter, the hill changes while the sun follows its steady descent. Aerial views trace vineyard rows, ridgelines, and open sky as color shifts from warm glow to deep blue. Vineyard Views is a series rooted in observation. Here, the story is told only through sunset. No movement but light. No measure of time but the seasons themselves. Across Napa Valley, Pritchard Hill becomes a canvas where sky and land meet at the close of day. #chappellet #napavalley #pritichardhill #vineyardviews #sunset #goldenhour #winecountry #napaexplore #californiawine ............................................
