Heading east over Howell Mountain you’ll find Pope Valley. While regarded as part of the Napa Valley AVA, Pope Valley is just east of St Helena and is unlike the busy Valley it parallels. This is part two of our interview with the owners of Pope Valley Winery, this time featuring Vintner and family member David Eakle. Like many Vintners, David wears several hats along with his sister Diana Eakle Hawkins, whom we featured in podcast 643. David took time out during harvest to give us a glimpse into his world of wine. Being at the winery was like being in a time machine.

Four years ago we produced a podcast featuring a sampling of Appellation St Helena winemakers which included Eric Titus of Titus Vineyards as one of the guests. We figured it was about time we sat down and recorded a full interview with Eric to learn more about the Titus Winery. The Titus tasting room sits right on Silverado Trail and is easy to find and well worth the time. Eric brings a great laugh to this interview along with spectacular wine. So make an appointment and taste the harvest!
