The Ojai Vineyard
About The Ojai Vineyard: Located on Montgomery Street, The Ojai Vineyard creates California wines with a European sense of finesse. The wines they make today are a culmination of four decades of pursuing excellence with the fruit grown in their region. From Stockholm to New York, their wines are poured in the finest restaurants because the quality and value of The Ojai Vineyard are understood by wine professionals around the world.
Their tasting room is open daily 12-5 pm and offers flights and wines by the glass.
In this episode JJ, Doug, Michael, and Fabien discuss:
-
The art of tasting and smelling wines
-
Meditating with wine
-
Iconic products are made by combining intention and artistry
-
The culture and tradition of wine
In this episode, JJ and Doug visit The Ojai Vineyard with co-host Michael Neeley and Ojai Vineyard manager Fabien Castel.
Born and raised in Paris, Fabien was exposed to a variety of old and young wines all his life but never received formal wine training until he started working at the Ojai Vineyard. Under Adam Tolmach's guidance, the owner of The Ojai Vineyard, he gained an understanding of the process of tasting and winemaking, and it has become his mission to explain the uniqueness of this quest, as well as how it translates into The Ojai Vineyard's wines.
