Episode 74 of Vine, W**e & Dine is live with James Hall, founder and w**emaker of Patz & Hall.
Few people shaped California and the way James has. The whole label was built on one conviction — partner with the very best growers, then let each site speak for itself. Decades of those relationships turned Patz & Hall into a benchmark, and then came the twist: James bought the w**ery back and brought it home to family ownership.
