About this episode
This episode is the first of the six-part series where we explore American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) that may not be as understood as they should be. We'll start with Temecula Valley where I talk to Devon Parr about this AVA, what’s going on there, how it all happened, and what the future looks like. Thanks, Devin for chatting with me!
