Ep 140: Preserving the Past, Shaping the Story – Featuring SLO County Wine Award Recipients Chris Taranto & Libbie Agran
🍇 Where Wine Takes You – Episode Highlights 🍷
What happens when the voice of Paso’s future sits down with the keeper of its past?
In this episode, Adam welcomes two legends who’ve shaped how Paso Robles is seen, celebrated, and remembered:
• Libbie Agran, Director of the SLO County Wine History Project – this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award recipient.
Together, they dive into the roots of SLO County’s wine culture led by Paso, from early French plantings and Gold Rush refugees to modern multi-generational legacies and the new wave of young winemakers taking over historic vineyards.
