🍇 Where Wine Takes You – Episode Highlights 🍷

A Sense of Place

 

Willow Creek Wine Collective 

This episode takes us to the beautiful Willow Creek Wine Collective, where we recorded live with winemakers Natalie and Brian Brown. They’ve created multiple brands under their umbrella, including Rococo Wines, which focuses on old-vine Chenin Blanc, and In Medias Res, offering small-batch, terroir-driven wines. Nestled in Paso’s Willow Creek District, their story is one of passion for the land they farm, and their unique wines are a true expression of place.

Jason Joyce and Calcareous Vineyard

We are also joined by Jason Joyce, the longtime winemaker at Calcareous Vineyard. Known for his deep connection to the calcareous rock that gives his wines their signature mineral complexity, Jason has spent years perfecting his craft and letting Paso’s unique terroir shine through each bottle. From their steep, sun-drenched slopes, Calcareous consistently produces bold, site-driven wines.

Travel Paso Spotlight: The Paderewski Festival

In this episode’s Travel Paso Spotlight, we shine a light on the upcoming Paderewski Festival, happening October 31 to November 3, 2024. This annual event celebrates the life and legacy of Ignacy Jan Paderewski, the Polish pianist and statesman who made his mark on Paso Robles by planting Zinfandel grapes here. The festival blends music, history, and wine, with concerts, youth competitions, and tastings from Paso’s top wineries like Epoch Estate Wines.
