The Friday edition of the AgNet News Hour opened with hosts Nick Papagni—the Ag Meter—and Lorrie Boyer welcoming listeners to another episode filled with agricultural insight, industry analysis, and expert voices. This week's feature was a compelling interview with one of California's most respected winemakers: Nicholas Karavidas, whose four-decade career spans cellar floors, tasting rooms, distillation, consulting, and global wine policy. What followed was an in-depth, candid, and far-reaching conversation covering the evolution of California wine, today's unprecedented industry slump, the future of global markets, and why automation is now essential for survival. A Winemaking Journey That Began at 18 Karavidas's entry into the wine world started by chance. After his family moved from Glendale to the historic Cucamonga Valley, he found himself surrounded by a vibrant —though now largely forgotten—grape-growing region. At just 18 years old, he took a position as a union cellar man at an old Gallo facility owned by Brookside, a major direct-to-consumer winery producing 600,000 cases a year across 38 tasting rooms. The work hooked him instantly. He loved: The intellectual side of winemaking The hands-on craft The lifestyle—surfing in the mornings, working swing shift, and still being a teenager His career ascended quickly: Senior lab technician Associate winemaker Full winemaking responsibility by age 21 He later joined the fourth-generation Filippi family winery, producing 3,000–4,000 tons per year. For 16 years, he managed everything “from the still to the bottle,” often running the distillery late at night before receiving fruit at sunrise. Forty Years of Change: From Jug Wine to Napa Prestige When asked how the industry has changed since those early days, Karavidas didn't hesitate: “Dramatically.” The 1970s–1980s: U.S. shelves were dominated by semi-generic wines like Chablis and Burgundy Four-liter jugs were standard Zinfandel was largely a blending grape Cabernet Sauvignon was not yet king The 1990s–2000s Shift: Varietal wines became mainstream Bottles got smaller and more premium Napa Valley transformed the American palate This evolution reshaped California wine into the global powerhouse it is today. Today's Wine Slump: “Unlike Any Cycle We've Seen Before” Following a commercial break, the Ag Meter steered the conversation toward the most pressing topic: the current wine downturn, especially pronounced in regions like Lodi, where Karavidas resides. He explained that while the industry has always cycled between under-supply and over-supply, the current slump is fundamentally different. How We Got Here From 1990 to 2000: U.S. wine consumption surged Vineyard plantings increased rapidly But all those vines reached full production at the same time. By 2005, California hit a 3-million-ton harvest, outpacing domestic demand. Back then, wine imports represented just 10–18% of the U.S. retail market. Today: A New Reality Imports now exceed 40% U.S. consumption is flat Production costs are rising Exporting wine is harder and less profitable International sales face steep: Duties VATs Fees Regulatory costs Shipping Hidden logistical expenses Some countries—India among the most extreme—can add up to 300% of the wine's value in export-related costs, making competition nearly impossible. Vineyard Removals: A Potential Over-Correction The most visible impact of today's imbalance is on the land itself. Karavidas estimates: Lodi has removed up to 30% of its vineyards in just 24 months Removals continue weekly Thousands of acres are gone, with risk of pulling out too much too quickly Making matters worse: European producers stockpiled massive volumes of wine in the U.S. just before tariffs hit. This “pre-load” flooded the market and pushed the 2025 California crop “into the weeds,” creating a backlog that could take years to unwind. Global Wine Vision 2035: A Call for Worldwide Alignment Karavidas also discussed his major initiative, Global Wine Vision 2035—a project he launched over a year ago after publishing digital essays that caught international attention. Its aim: Establish a more balanced, cooperative, and sustainable global wine economy. His framework focuses on: Regulatory consistency Fair trade policies Countering anti-alcohol and neo-prohibitionist movements Industry sustainability Representation for small & mid-sized producers Interest in the initiative is growing among academics in Canada, UK regulators, EU stakeholders, and others worldwide. A Global Wine Advisory Board is now in development, representing the 99% of producers who are not multinational giants. Karavidas shares ongoing insights via his Purple Happy Wine Inside Out Newsletter on LinkedIn. Why Younger Consumers Drink Less Wine The conversation turned to a key demographic shift. According to Karavidas, younger adults face multiple barriers: Health consciousness Rising interest in organic lifestyles Competition from cannabis & ready-to-drink beverages Too many choices and little guidance High prices Intimidating wine environments “You walk into a store with hundreds of bottles,” he said. “Where do you even start?” The Future Is Accessible: Cans, Single Serves & Less Intimidation Karavidas believes the current oversupply will help break down barriers and usher in a more modern, approachable wine culture. Expect more: Single-serve options Canned wines Affordable ready-to-drink portions Lower price points Less pressure and more fun He remains optimistic: “I'm bullish on the wine industry—not because it will return to the boomer boom, but because we're getting better at understanding our markets and our customers.” Advice to New Wine Drinkers: Keep It Fun His guidance for young couples or new consumers? Visit accessible regions like Lodi Talk to small producers Try new things—no rules Mix a spritzer if you want Chill reds if it tastes good Dive into technical knowledge only if it sparks curiosity Wine, he emphasized, should never be intimidating. Imports Are Winning—And Why California Must Automate Fast The Ag Meter raised the growing presence of low-price French, Italian, and other imported wines on U.S. shelves. Why are they so cheap? Foreign subsidies Lower labor costs Lower production costs Easier global export models California, meanwhile, pays: Higher wages Higher regulatory costs More expensive production inputs Karavidas's solution: Rapid mechanization and automation over the next 3–5 years. Automation: The Next Great Wine Revolution Karavidas predicts sweeping changes, including: Robotics in vineyards Mechanical pruning & pre-pruning Unmanned tractors Advanced mechanical harvesting Automated pump-overs Rotary screen systems for tank emptying Robotics in bottling & barrel cellars Smart-power systems like VinWizard Reduced water & energy use Alternatives to oak barrels This isn't about eliminating jobs, he stressed—it's about creating new ones for technicians, mechanics, and automation specialists.

Industry Reflections from the Hosts After the interview, Papagni and Boyer reflected on: The complex challenges facing the wine industry Declining consumption An aging population Stockpiled EU wine Tariffs, duties, and labor constraints The rise in organic preferences The importance of modernization They also promoted Monday's upcoming interview with Tim Hanni, focusing on why younger demographics are drinking less wine.

A Wine Industry in Transition—And Opportunity The full conversation with Nicholas Karavidas offered a rare insiders' look at an industry undergoing profound change. From global trade pressures and shifting consumer behavior to automation, vineyard redevelopment, and new packaging innovations, wine is at a defining moment. Yet Karavidas is clear: The future is promising for those who innovate. Adaptation, technology, and a renewed focus on accessibility will shape the next era of California and global wine—and the industry is already moving.

California's Crossroads: John Duarte Talks Leadership, Agriculture, and the Future of the Golden State On a special Thanksgiving edition of the AgNet News Hour, host Nick Papagni, “The Ag Meter,” sat down with John Duarte—farmer, nursery leader, and former congressman—for a candid discussion about California's political climate, agricultural innovation, and the future of farming families across the state. The conversation, replayed as a “best of” segment, highlighted Duarte's belief that California is on the verge of a major shift—one driven by common sense, economic revitalization, and a renewed respect for the agricultural backbone of the state. A Call for Common Sense Leadership in California When asked whether California can “switch and get back to common sense,” Duarte didn't hesitate. Yes, it can. He emphasized that meaningful change is on the horizon, largely driven by everyday Californians who are tired of policies that push families, businesses, and young people out of the state. Duarte voiced strong support for candidates like Chad Blanco and Steve Hilton, stressing that whoever emerges from the primary will have his full backing. He believes the 2026 gubernatorial race will center around one theme: California is being left behind, even as the rest of the country surges ahead economically and environmentally. According to Duarte, America is already showing signs of powerful economic growth. Environmental progress and economic success don't have to be mutually exclusive, he argues. In his view, California's current policies have unnecessarily sacrificed jobs, infrastructure, and quality of life in the name of environmentalism—often without meaningful environmental gains to show for it. Meanwhile, families across the state are watching their children move to places like Tennessee, Georgia, and Oklahoma for opportunities California can no longer offer. Duarte believes that this exodus will eventually create enough pressure to push California toward more practical, future-focused leadership. Infrastructure, Water, and the High-Speed Rail Debate Duarte didn't hold back when discussing the state's long-criticized bullet train project—calling it the “bullet to the head train.” He contrasted the billions invested into the rail line with the massive impact that same funding could have had on drinking water systems, treatment facilities, and rural infrastructure. During his time in Congress, he said, the federal government poured $4 billion into the project. At even modest estimates, that money could have built dozens—if not hundreds—of essential water projects across California's farm-dependent regions. For Duarte, this is the clearest example of a state government that prioritizes symbolism over solutions. An “abundance-oriented society,” he argues, invests in the infrastructure that improves real lives: water storage, treatment, delivery, and the systems that keep agriculture thriving. He draws a distinction between what he calls the “lords of scarcity”—coastal elites who push restrictive policies—and the “champions of abundance”—farmers, energy producers, and working people who generate the food, power, and materials society depends on. And Duarte is clear: the champions of abundance are about to kick butt in California. A Conversation Between Colleagues and Friends After wrapping the interview, Papagni and co-host Lorrie Boyer reflected on their conversation with Duarte. Boyer praised him for his clarity and willingness to elaborate on complex issues—something listeners appreciate. Papagni agreed, adding that the Duarte family itself is remarkable. John's wife, Alexandra Duarte, is now running for office, continuing the family's commitment to public service and agricultural advocacy. Papagni highlighted John Duarte's accomplishments in the nursery industry, where he helped refine varieties of almond trees, table grapes, and trellis systems. Boyer wondered how someone even gets started in such an industry; Papagni explained that Duarte entered the nursery world in the 1990s and has spent decades experimenting, innovating, and anticipating the needs of future growers. One example: Duarte's ambition to bring avocado production to California's Central Valley—a bold move that could extend the state's avocado season and reshape a key market dominated by Southern California growers. Both hosts emphasized that agriculture is one of the most technologically advanced, forward-thinking industries in the world. Duarte's continual experimentation—sometimes successful, sometimes not—is part of what makes him and his nursery widely respected. Thanksgiving Reflections and the Farming Lifestyle As the show transitioned into its Thanksgiving morning segment, Papagni and Boyer shifted into a warm, lighthearted conversation about holiday traditions, cooking turkey, and the simple joys of family time. Papagni pictured farmers out checking their orchards and fields early in the day before heading home to celebrate—a familiar rhythm for agricultural families. Their playful banter ranged from turkey recipes to brisket, to the famous Santa Maria tri-tip, to the challenge of feeding large groups with slow-cooked meats. It provided a relatable, personal counterbalance to the more serious political discussions earlier in the program. The hosts closed by previewing an upcoming “best of” interview with Stuart Woolf, a well-known Westside Fresno grower who is experimenting with agave as a low-water crop that could transform the region into an agave—and potentially tequila—hub.

When it comes to John Carpenter's iconic franchise, Halloween, most people may be familiar, in the abstract, with the name Moustapha Akkad as his name is the first to appear in the opening credits for every movie. What fans of the series may not be familiar with is how integral Moustapha was to bringing the story of Michael Myers to life, producing all 8 original movies, even after John Carpenter, himself, left the series. To celebrate Halloween, Brian Santana joins me to talk about the life of Moustapha Akkad, the man born to a customs officer in Syria, who came to Hollywood to bring the story of Islam to life on the big screen. From his movie, The Message, to becoming the silent force behind one of the horror genre's greatest franchises, Moustapha Akkad's life was rich with creativity until his violent death at the hands of suicide bombers in Amman, Jordan. This is the story of his life and his enduring legacy, honoring the man who was so pivotal in making Michael Myers and the season what it is today.
