Saturday we got to meet one of our favorite wine makers, Tobin (Toby) James. He was in town doing tastings at several Whole Foods stores. It was really great to finally meet him. He is a cool, down to earth guy. We chatted for a good 20 minutes. I think we convinced him to do a tasting at our favorite hang out, Cave Creek Wines next time he’s in town.
A little background: Last year we visited the Tobin James winery in Paso Robles California following the recommendation of some friends. We loved it. We joined the club, the James Gang. It is the only club we are a member of. This year we went to their summer BBQ event, which just rocked. We are waiting for our biannual shipment of wine from them now. We should have it any day now and we can’t wait!
