The En Garde Tasting room is located in Kenwood, Sonoma County, and Csaba Szakál is making more than half of his wine from Napa Valley grapes. While Atlas Peak is one of his most important AVA’s he makes wine from other areas including Diamond Mountain, Russian River, Petaluma Gap and others. I met up with Csaba during harvest and he was kind enough to sit down for a chat during the busiest time of year. I’m lucky I could pull him away.

A tomato farmer from Florida becomes a grape farmer in Napa Valley, not really that surprising. When farming is in your blood, it stays. Jeff Gargiulo is well known in Napa Valley for world class wines and his joy for farming grapes shows in each bottle. I met up with Jeff at his property in the Oakville AVA just at the end of harvest. The intimate tasting room along with his beautiful guitar collection is a must see. His wines are a must taste.
