Smakningar hem

Efter två dagar på Napas Howell Mountain , Jag går hem till Tor Kenward, ägare av Tor Wines, för en mycket exklusiv provsmakning.

'Jag kan inte tro det, men det här är första gången vi gör en vertikal av vår Tor Cimarossa vingård Cabernet,' undrar han när vi sätter oss på en bekväm soffa i vardagsrummet i hans stenhus strax norr om St. Helena. 'Det är spännande, jag tror att några av dessa viner kommer att överleva mig!'
