He currently makes wine for the famed Joel Gott and Gavin Newsome's Plumpjack winery.  His own brand Station 26 was inspired by the lifeguard station in Santa Monica number 26 where he met his wife. We don't know what he was doing at that station that night...we will have to wait for the next episode with him to find out.  He was brought to wine as a young man by tasting with his grandfather and walking the vineyard with him to ascertain the grape quality. He wine education jump started when he was tasked to inventory a private collection and started to wonder what the hype was all about.

Barry, Mike and surprise guest Steve Silver take turns recounting an emotionally charged, wine-fueled dinner at a San Antonio steakhouse with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and his son, Stephen--and the gang is off and running once more. From the Tupac Shakur pregame speech that might have been, to the progressive Halloween party featuring future Super Bowl-winning coaches dressed in drag, to the time Barry sent a drug dealer to hook up one of his iconic coaching counterparts, this fast-moving trip down memory lane does not disappoint.

After working among some of the top wineries in Napa, Aaron Miller took over the helm as winemaker for Plumpjack Winery in 2012.  Plumpjack sits on some of the most valuable real estate in the Napa Valley, with the estate vineyard planted in the iron-red soils of Oakville's eastern edge.  In this episode Aaron tells the story of Plumpjack and its relation to its sister wineries Cade Winery and Odette Estate, also operated by the Plumpjack Group.  Each of the three wineries has been created to express the unique qualities of its estate vineyard, each in a different district of Napa.  Our conversation in this episode covers Aaron's background, his observations of growing Chardonnay in the warm northern half of Napa, the characteristics of fermenting in steel, oak, and concrete tanks, the efforts to manage those different tanks, and Plumpjack's 20 years of experience in bottling the top Cabernet under cork and screwcap closures.   LINKS AND RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE Plumpjack Winery Cade Winery Odette Estate Questions?  Comments?  Let me know what you think: jim@insidewinemaking.com

Aaron Miller is the winemaker at the PlumpJack Winery in the Napa Valley of California.

In this episode, I interview Danielle Cyrot, the winemaker for . CADE, founded by the folks at PlumpJack back in 2005, is one of the few wineries up on Napa's Howell Mountain. It's worth the trip up windy Howell Mountain Road to experiece CADE-- for an amazing view from high up on Howell Mountain out across Napa Valley, and of course, for the wines.  talks about how she fell into wine, her early winemaking experience in France and Australia, and how she manages to make amazing wines that are ready to drink now, even though Howell Mountain wine has a reputation of needing to be cellared.

Christophe Gerard, chef de cuisine of FARM at the Carneros Inn, quickly boils asparagus in heavily salted water, then submerges it in an ice bath to keep it tender and bright green.

Most people put leftover white wine in the fridge and red wine on the counter. Gillian Ballance, wine director of FARM at the Carneros Inn, says that the fridge is the best bet for both.

Sweetbreads are the thymus (commonly mistaken as thyroid, even by professional chefs) or pancreas gland of a lamb, calf, or piglet. Their function in a live animal: helping with the immune system and digestion. Their function on a plate: deliciousness. Christophe Gerard, chef de cuisine of FARM at the Carneros Inn, blanches them in milk, then drains them and pan-fries them in butter. You don't need flour to get them nice and crisp.

Some wines come with a thick wax seal on the top. To open them, says Gillian Ballance, wine director of FARM at the Carneros Inn, push your corkscrew through as though the seal wasn't even there.

Gillian Ballance, wine director of FARM at the Carneros Inn, thinks safe choices when ordering wine are New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs and Argentinean Malbecs.
