How wildfires affect the wine industry with Philippe Langner of Hesperian Wines

 As one of the biggest wine producers in the country, every year California's wildfire season takes a huge toll on our local and national wine industry. This week on Beyond the Shelf, we spoke with Winemaker and the Owner of Hesperian Wines, Philippe Langner. In this episode, Philippe gave us some insights into how California wildfires affect the wine industry in Napa Valley. He also shed some light on the extensive aging process of wine, and how environmental factors play a huge role in the production of high-quality wine - as well as how he is working towards overcoming last year's record-breaking fire season.
