Grape growers in Sonoma and Napa counties don’t have to worry about a drought this year, but they do have to worry about having enough workers in the vineyards: in part because of President Trump’s crackdown on undocumented workers. When employees are scarce, wages go up… Some growers think they may have to downsize because of the labor shortage, others say it could lead to higher prices for wine.
