Napa Valley’s Peju Winery now has a sister winery located in the much cooler Carneros District. Calmére Estate wines fall under the watchful eye of winemaker Sara Fowler, a friend to our Podcast for many years. Our last interview with Sara was way back in 2012 so we figured it was time to get caught up. We often ask winemakers to pose for our story photos with as many wine bottles as they can hold. Sara likely has taken the record posing with six cases (72 bottles!) on her lap in the wine cellar! We call that, passion!

The mountains surrounding Napa Valley are glorious. The views are stunning but more importantly the grapes grown on those hillsides are exceptional. Aaron Pott grows grapes at his property aptly named Châteauneuf-du-Pott on Mt. Veeder. Aaron will make you laugh but without a doubt, he takes his wine very seriously. We visited Aaron at him home while tasting his excellent wines and laughing at every chance.
