Ever wonder who makes the wine behind your favorite independent labels? 🍇🍷

This week, we caught up with the winemaking crew at @pacificwineservices for a local post-harvest debrief on the 2026 vintage. When harvest hits Paso Robles, custom crush facilities like PWS become the high-stakes engine rooms of the Central Coast. Processing everything from 1-ton experimental micro-lots to 100-ton runs for over 200 wine brands, their team sees every microclimate, varietal, and weather curve the vintage had to offer.

With Halloween approaching, we're looking back on this Friday the 13th conversation on dark fiction and winemaking from earlier this year!

Two thousand years of guilt. One modern reckoning. ⏳📖

In his debut literary thriller, In the Wake of Golgotha, author Daniel Grace pulls Judas Iscariot and Pontius Pilate out of antiquity and thrusts them into a gritty contemporary crime narrative. Cursed to repeat their moral failures through history, their paths violently collide once more on the streets of modern New York.

But Daniel’s craft doesn't stop at the typewriter. Between chapters, he oversees Il Molino di Grace, his family’s organic winery nestled in the hills of Panzano-in-Chianti, Italy—producing celebrated, 100% Sangiovese Chianti Classico. Whether cultivating centuries-old vines or writing millennia-spanning mythology, his work is all about patience, tradition, and profound depth.

🍷 Pair this dark, philosophical thriller with a bold red wine.
