Viticulture blending. Fermentation tanks are now cheap enough that the field blend is an anachronism, and almost all wines are assembled by blending from smaller, individual lots. However, in California some of the oldest (and lowest-yielding) Zinfandel comes from vineyards that are field-blended. Ridge Vineyards owns the Lytton Springs vineyards in Sonoma County, which were planted from 1900 to 1905 in what Ridge calls "a traditional field blend of about seventy percent Zinfandel, twenty percent Petite Sirah, and ten percent Grenache and Carignan." 39.

Arithmetic of abelian varieties Arithmetic of abelian varieties In mathematics, the arithmetic of abelian varieties is the study of the number theory of an abelian variety, or family of those. It goes back to the studies of Pierre de Fermat on what are now recognized as elliptic curves; and has become a very substantial area both in terms of results and conjectures. Most of these can be posed for an abelian variety "A" over a number field "K"; or more generally (for global fields or more general finitely-generated rings or fields). There is some tension here between concepts: "integer point" belongs in a sense
