![]() Wine legends Robert Mondavi and Baron Philippe de Rothschild founded Opus One in 1979. “I think it is a well-designed change for this winery that is minimally impactful,” Commissioner Michael Basayne said before the commission granted unanimous approval. Opus One wins expansion approval - Opus One winery convinced county Planning Commissioners on Wednesday that its success warrants doubling wine production and making other changes, despite some public concerns about cumulative impacts. A supremely age-worthy wine, it will delight now and for many years to come.Ĭabernet Sauvignon 80%, Petit Verdot 9%, Cabernet Franc 5%, Merlot 5%, and Malbec 1% The fine-grained, plush tannins evolve into a long, supple finish. This seductive wine shows flavors of black cassis, black cherry and a hint of cocoa powder. The juicy entry offers a round, silky mouthfeel with just enough acidity to complement the satin texture. The Opus One 2017 offers a harmonious aromatic balance of rich dark fruit, stems of roses, and earthy forest floor. Superb flavors and excellent ripening led to an earlier than expected harvest, which commenced on the 5th of September. Despite Mother Nature’s variability, favorable weather in August provided optimal conditions for fruit development and maturation. The summer, in turn, was warm and punctuated by occasional heat waves. Increased soil moisture allowed for healthy vine growth and development. The abundant rainfall continued into March, causing a modest delay in budbreak, and pushing bloom back by two weeks. The winter of 2017 ended a five-year drought with January recording the most rainfall in over 20 years. A delicate dark chocolate bitterness lingers on the finish. The freshness and soft glow of acidity create a subtle tension with dark fruit flavors, savory herbs, espresso, and cocoa. The creamy, satiny texture is framed by fine-grained tannins. The Opus One 2019 has intense aromas of black plum, blueberry, black currant, and dried rose petals, accentuated by mineral undertones. ![]() Harvest lasted four weeks, and activity in the cellar proceeded at a calm and steady pace. ![]() Picking began on September 10th, a couple of days earlier than average. However, warmer temperatures toward the end of summer accelerated the fruit’s development and maturity. This delay led to later bloom and veraison. The first signs of budbreak were observed in the vineyard on March 27th a full 15 days later than usual. Drink from 2007 - 2019.Abundant spring rains, nearly double the annual average, saturated the soil and provided ample water for the growing season. ![]() A blend of 86% cabernet sauvignon, 6% merlot, 3% malbec, 3% cabernet franc and 2% petit verdot. Finish is a little short, but it is pleasant. They coat your mouth but are very gentle. Tannins spread out in the finish, and they are slightly dusty but well incorporated into the wine. Very well integrated even at this early stage. Powdered cocoa, and vanilla from the oak round out the flavors. Beautiful blackberry, intense black current, some plum. The 2002 Opus One shows really dark with ruby edges. And, at a cost of more than $29 million, the Opus One Winery ranks as one of the world's most expensive single-product facilities. The wine is moved only by the gentle force of gravity mechanical pumps are banned. Opus One is meticulously "hand massaged," with frequent topping of barrels and six rackings during its 18 months in barrel, making it extremely labor intensive. "The standard is not to be excellent here, it is to be perfect," co-Winemaker Tim Mondavi declares matter-of-factly. There is a reason for the high price: Opus One is a very expensive wine to produce, and has been since day one. The price range for an Opus One ranges from the low $100's up to thousands of dollars. Ever since, I've been hooked on this wine, but considering its high price, it is definitely a wine for very special occasions. I had only savored this wine once before: It was a 2000 Opus One that my good buddy, Bill, shared with the cooking club. I don't consider myself a wine snob nor am I an expert in wines, but I am very picky about the wines I drink and when I found out that my husband bought a 2002 Opus One, I was beyond ecstatic.

What’s more, on-site break room means that employees who need a time out are more likely to stay in the office vs. A functional and comfortable break room is a clear demonstration and a constant reminder that employers care about their employees. More Employee EngagementĮmployee engagement has emerged from being a “nice-to-have” workplace asset, to one that is now recognized as vital to the bottom-line, especially since the costs of turnover are excessive and often run into the tens of thousands of dollars per lost employee. ![]() ![]() However, it does mean that there is a great deal of collaboration that takes place in spaces like break rooms, which is beneficial to employees and employers alike. No, this does not mean that employees should commandeer the break room and turn it into a de facto meeting room. On the contrary, the break room is often the optimal - and sometimes, the only - place where employees can informally gather to share information that is related to work. The break room is not just a sensory deprivation tank where employees go to completely unplug (literally and psychologically) from work. They are also more likely to finish tasks on-time. However, studies show that workers who take breaks are more productive, because they have more energy, are more alert, and are more engaged. On the surface, this seems like a drain on productivity.

Here are the three key benefits that businesses miss out on when they take a break from break rooms in their office design: 1. Yet with this being said, break rooms are indeed strategic and therefore valuable pieces of the office design puzzle. Granted, a break room is not essential, in the sense that suitable restroom facilities are a must-have. ![]() However, in recent years, many offices - especially those with smaller space to work with - have opted to pass on the break room, largely because they viewed it as something conventional rather than necessary. ![]() ![]() He planned to purchase property and construct a new building to house his trampoline park in Clifton Park. The Albany Sky Zone was closed after he purchased the franchise in September. Saunders was interested in the territory but not in the existing location. She offered him the opportunity to purchase the Albany territory, which includes Clifton Park. In 2018, Saunders was contacted by Colleen Fitzgerald who at that time owned nine Sky Zones, including one in Albany. He owns the property and the building and invested a total of $2.9 million in the facility. Saunders opened his first Sky Zone in 2016 at 235 Corinth Road in Queensbury. About a year-and-a-half later, they asked me if I would be interested in the Glens Falls market.” “I called the franchise and found out that territory was already taken. “We had so much fun, and I thought, ‘Boy, this would be great for Clifton Park,’” he said. He became interested in opening a Sky Zone franchise after taking his daughter to one of the company’s parks in Florida. Masonry in Fort Edward and Action Equipment and Supply in Glens Falls. It will occupy 23,000 square feet of mall space, situated between Regal Cinemas and Boscov’s. Owner Rusty Saunders is investing $1.5 million in the facility at Clifton Park Center. The owner of Sky Zone Trampoline Park in Queensbury, as well as other businesses in Glens Falls and Fort Edward, is building another Sky Zone Trampoline Park in Clifton Park. This is the Sky Zone Trampoline Park in Queensbury run by Rusty Sanders. Now bear in mind, these are MY observations in my 2019 Bolt EV Premier. At 100 Deg F ambient and lower, the set point seems to be a reliable 80 Deg F. Really hot days (like OP is getting in AZ) may see the "aggressive cooling" when plugged in only get it down to 85 Deg F. The point that the system cools the battery down to seems to vary a little bit based on ambient temperatures. Those were days when the ambient temperature was around 105-106 or higher, so I'm thinking that the software logic controlling the battery cooling is a little more complex than I originally thought. The target temp for when the car is parked and OFF is usually 80 Deg F, but on some especially hot days I've noticed it stops at 85 Deg F. Plugged in with the Target Charge level set below the current SOC, the car just draws power from the EVSE to run the battery cooling system. ![]() The battery still wants to trend into the 90's F, but I reign it back by making sure I plug in (I don't necessarily charge - I use the Target Charge feature to keep the battery from actually charging if I don't want it to). And I park in the shade routinely both at work and under my carport at home. To bring this back around on-topic: in the triple digit heat we've been getting in my area over the last couple weeks I have been noticing a bit of "battery conditioning" draw pretty much daily. I've just never seen this personally at any sites I have ever visited (and I just got back from a 1400 mile road trip in my Bolt where I visited quite a few public charging sites, both L2 and DCFC). And so do the chargers happily enough, which can only help with their reliability. For example I believe some down in the Baker area heading towards Las Vegas have solar panels to help offset energy usage, with the nifty bonus that the cars (and their batteries!) stay cool underneath. I have HEARD of some EVSE sites that have solar panels covering them. It's just such a no-brainer that I can't wrap my head around how lacking public charging is in this respect. longevity and reliability of their equipment). They are our "gas stations" and there are good practical reasons for us to have them - including reasons that are also of benefit to the operator of the site (i.e. I would just like to see that universal acceptance of covers over EVSEs as well. You just don't see them without some form or other of covering. Whatever the reasons may be for coverings over gas stations, the point is they're universal and accepted as a natural feature of HAVING a gas station. Don't these companies - Tesla especially - WANT their chargers to hold up over time? And by extension they'd be helping their customers keep their cars cooler during charging too, which simply increases the energy efficiencies we're all after. Even Tesla leaves their chargers out in the elements. ad nauseum can't seem to figure this out. I can't fathom how EA, EVGo, EV Connect, etc. Leave ANYTHING roasting in the sun (or freezing in a blizzard) unprotected and YES it will break down more quickly than if it were shaded, pretty much guaranteed. Why have I never once seen a public charger with so much as an awning over it - ANY kind of cover - to shade the charger and stall? How expensive could it be, compared to the cost of the station itself? I think that more public chargers would be operable and more reliable if they had SOME sort of protection from the elements. When was the last time anyone ever pulled up to a gas pump that was out in the open air, with no cover of any kind over it? I guarantee you that you've never seen one unless you're 100 years old (and power to you!). Your issue about charging in the sun brings up a rant I have about public chargers (or even restricted chargers). I take care to plug in whenever I can to allow the Bolt to more aggressively cool the battery - I can keep it down in the low 80's F for the most part. ![]() Been seeing more draw for battery conditioning lately - just a trifle (maybe 1 or 2 percent).
