Ep 138 Small Lot, Big Soul – Featuring Red Door Ranch | Royal Nonesuch Farm | Lopai

🍇 Where Wine Takes You – Episode Highlights 🍷 Episode Title: Small Lot, Big Soul: Paso’s Newest, Best-Kept Secrets In this episode, we shine a spotlight on three Paso winemakers and vineyard owners who are putting everything into the bottle — and nothing into the hype. These are the small-lot producers who quietly shape what makes Paso Robles such a powerful, soulful, and personal wine region. You’ll meet: Eric Morley of Red Door Ranch Vineyards — alongside his wife Holly, Eric is building a boutique estate in the Templeton Gap focused on organic farming and site-driven wines with purpose. • Anthony Yount of Royal Nonesuch Farm and Kinero Cellars — Anthony and his wife Hillary farm their York Mountain estate by hand, crafting Rhône-style blends and crisp whites with depth and soul. • Paul “P‑Lo” Lopez of Lopai Cellars — a sixth-generation Paso farmer who makes powerful estate wines from Willow Creek fruit with his son Brian. They’re not chasing trends. They’re making wine on their own terms — with heart, hustle, and heritage. This is small-lot winemaking with big soul. This is Paso at its most personal. 📰 PASO WINE WIRE HIGHLIGHTS Paso Robles Named Among World’s Smartest Wine Regions Tech, climate, and culture converge in this feature from The Buyer that puts Paso on a global innovation map. → Read the story J.
