R. Merlo Estate Vineyards

After visiting the vineyard that his great-grandfather planted in northern Italy, Ray Merlo and his wife, Robin, founded their own vineyard on the riverbanks of the tiny town of Hyampom in the mid-eighties. Since then, the business has expanded to a second vineyard and two wineries. Each venture is operated under the family name of Merlo, which means “blackbird” in Italian. Rich with soil composed of rock, gravel, and sand, the diverse terrain makes for equally diverse grape varietals, all waiting to be converted into libations or invited to join the reunited California Raisins.

While in the tasting room in Clarksburg, visitors might feel as though they’ve been invited into the cellar itself, as they are surrounded by racks bearing dozens of casks. The catalog of vintages—from pinot noirs to syrahs—is largely focused on red wines, incorporating the flavors, aromas, and grass clippings of Napa Valley. The native focus of each bottle emphasizes what winemaker Steven Canter likes to think of as “an elegant expression of the land.”

The Groupon Guide to: Your Dream Body

If you find yourself with hours and hours of free time every day, spend it productively—by thinking about or drawing your dream body. Here are some things that belong on the perfect you:

  • Long, flowing hair
  • Long, flowing foot hair, so you can donate regularly to a wig shop without cutting your head hair
  • Two noses: one for smelling and one for eating small foods
  • Edible, beef-flavored tongue
  • Legs and arms switched
  • Fingers that somehow aren't as disgusting as normal human fingers. Maybe they don't have knuckles, or each finger has a diamond-shaped tip. Anything to make them less disgusting.
  • Entirely sword-resistant

If your nose had teeth, would you stop using your mouth to eat?
