Views of a local who has been in the hospitality side of the wine biz full- or part-time for about three decades. Maybe more importantly, an avid consumer of the local wines for over 40 years. Mostly general comments on the California wine business because that's what I know.
"The Other White Meat" was a 1980s advertising campaign slogan for pork. Sauvignon Blanc is the other white wine. As there is more than chicken to the lighter meats; there's more than Chardonnay when you want a white wine.
