Paso Robles - Russell Family (Rabbit Ridge) & Serrano Wines ep. 24
03/17/20 • 67 min
Paso Robles is a new wine region I have begun to explore. Paso is making some great wines, many are in the Rhone Valley style with GSM, Syrah, Petite Syrah because of the climate and soil types but they are still making some great Zins and Cabs. Russell Family is one of the oldest wineries in the AVA and Serrano is one of the youngest. This is a great conversation to learn more about Paso, how this is a up and coming wine region that is making some fantastic wines and we will learn about the history of these two wineries and their relationship to each other.
