🎧Ep 185 A Dream Written Down: The San Miguel Nested AVA – Featuring Kahal Family Vineyards

🍇 Where Wine Takes You, Episode Highlights 🍷 What happens when you actually follow through on the crazy thing you wrote down years ago? This week, Adam sits down with Dave and Shawn Kahal of Kahal Family Vineyards, whose path to wine country included Orange County, Connecticut, basement winemaking, some memorably bad early wine, and eventually a vineyard in Indian Valley with a San Miguel address. Their story is a good reminder that the finished bottle is usually the least complicated part. The conversation gets into Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, learning the realities of farming, the challenges facing growers in today’s wine market, and what it means to build a winery around experiences and relationships rather than simply making more wine. It’s also the latest stop in our exploration of Paso Robles’ 11 nested AVAs, with a closer look at the history and geography of the San Miguel District. Our Travel Paso Spotlight heads to From the Heart Animal Sanctuary on Fat Goat Farm in Paso
