Mike drives to the northern reaches of Sonoma to the Rockpile AVA on Rockpile Road to speak with Jack Florence Jr, one of the first people to plant Zinfandel in what has become one of the state's premier areas for Zin. Hear what inspired Jack to plant his vineyard, and how he just kept planting more as people started to catch on. It's a fun conversation!
