NYTimes: Asimov on Some New Calif Winemakers

Nice article in today's NYTimes:
[New Calif Winemakers](https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/04/dini ... -wine.html)
on some new Calif wineries/winemakers he has recently discovered:
Amevive
Emme
Florez Wines
Gail Wines
Iruai
Margins
Matt Crutchfield Wines
Minus Tide
Outward
Terah Wine Company

I can say that for only a few of these wines, I have followed them from the very start.
I've become a slacker.

Have only had, or even heard of, Iraui of all those. Just checked and you and I are the only ones who have posted about it (no surprise). Not a fan, but they were highly recommended by a friend who tends to like weird wines in preference to well-made conventional wines. Interesting to see them make this list.

I’ve got some Amevive in the cellar thanks, of course, to Tom! And I also have had some Florez… Santa Cruz Chardonnay, maybe? — which was not unpleasantly natty but leaned more cidery than I prefer.
cheers, Patchen
