This is the chief grape dbtrict in the northern half of the state. Much of the soil is too thin to produce good crops of wheat. The grape is grown without irrigation, the distance from the ocean (about twenty-five miles) not being so great as entirely to cut off the fogs. The bed-rock is in some places trap, in others sandstone, and in others magnesian limestone.
The latter is supposed to be particularly favorable to the growth of the grape.
Next to Sonoma valley is Napa, which has a deep, clay...ey soU, the strongest in the state, and therefore the best for wheat. In proportion to its size, it produces more wheat than any other part of the state. The upper part of the valley has a great deal of gravel, and may be good for grapes.
