I love your enthusiasm, but you have your history wrong, guys As a matter of fact, California wine grapes originally come from Mexico originally via Spain/The Old World. Vines were brought by the Christian missionaries from the Spaniards and raised between 1779-1823. Franciscan monks planted grapes for wine for the missions based in Mexico up to Sonoma. Remember, Mexico is a new border for a country, hence the Mexican American war i. e. - Don't Forget the Alamo We have all forgotten that the Southwest border is still pretty new. We look at one another like Americans and equals, but the white people are new. As is our culture. I could not be happier that you have been bringing up Mexico as an up-and-coming place. It's amazing But remember the Alamo. In 1848, George Yount, basically discovered/planted what is now and the start of Napa/Sonoma (hence Yountville, that has grown into California wine and then some. Do not think for a second that California just came about like Adam and Eve. It came from Spain/ the Old World and was brought about by Christianity and missionaries, which one can visit widely throughout the California continent, as I like to call it, and spread like a vine should throughout the continent. Vinifera grapes were introduced largely in the 1850's, via Mexico. It really was not until the 1960's that wine had anything to do with California at all, and thanks to Robert Mondavi. 1966 to be exact, he truly made his mark. I love your videos and everything you do, but I just need to make sure that you do not believe everything that you hear. Myself included. If I am wrong, I would love to hear it. So would a lot of the wine industry and rest of the world Please keep on going You are my inspiration Thank you. Much love Give me more

Great video I'd love to go to Mexico again sometime, I spent a couple of months there 3 years ago with my boyfriend at the time who was from Mexico City. There are still so many places I haven't explored though, so it's on my list for another trip sometime

You should be telling people at the beginning of your video they need Mexican auto insurance and the proper immigration document, the FMM, obtainable at Mexican Immigration (INM) as as they enter Mexico.
