The Paso Robles area of California is an incredibly diverse grape growing segment of wine country. You can find just about any wine you’d like to drink including Rhone varietals. Fulldraw Vineyard is located in the Templeton Gap AVA and owned by Connor McMahon. Several wineries can be found surrounding Fulldraw making it a fun place to visit. We caught up with Connor just after harvest in October and got a brief glimpse into growing a winery while growing a family.

It’s amazing to me just how many excellent wine growing areas there are in the state of California. When is the last time you’ve tasted wines from the Sierra Foothills? Mark Henry makes Montoliva in the Chicago Park area of the North Sierra Foothills. Italian varietals from northern California, you bet! Remember, the journey is always worth it.
