In episode forty-five of the Napa Valley Insider podcast, Andrew sits down with James Harder and Ed Feuchuk from Tank Garage Winery in Calistoga. They share the unique origin story behind Tank Garage—a former gas station turned rebellious tasting room that breaks the mold of traditional Napa wineries. James and Ed discuss their journey from Alberta and Napa roots to operating both Tank Garage and James Cole Winery, all while embracing an unpretentious, edgy vibe that captures the spirit of California.

They dive into what makes Tank Garage stand out, from its punk rock-inspired tasting room to its eclectic wine blends with vinyl album-style labels. James and Ed also reflect on their recent expansion to Paso Robles, their commitment to pushing boundaries in winemaking, and how staying authentic drives their brand's soul and community.
