Extraordinarily beautiful and less touristy, the Coombsville AVA of Napa Valley offers a peaceful way to see some of the finest vineyards in the Valley. Jim Pennella and his wife live next to their vineyard in an old school house easily identified as you pass by. Their wine is called Farang and I’ll let you take a listen to see where that came from. Jim and I chatted at the schoolhouse during a very typical Napa Valley winter as the rain fell for several days, giving the grapes much needed help for the growing season.

Way back in April of 2014 I recorded an interview (podcast 109) with Ron Sciandri, Proprietor of Sciandri Family Vineyards in the Coombsville AVA of Napa Valley. Just a few weeks ago I was able to have a bit of a family reunion with Ron’s son and daughter at their home in Coombsville. Ron and Rebecca now run the family vineyards as their dad had passed in 2015. It was great to catch up and remember their Ron with great love. This is family. This is Coombsville.
