American wine is part of global wine history. The U.S. has looked to Europe for inspiration in the past, but what’s happening now in this country is one of the most unique wine cultures in existence.

Today on “Wine 101,” Keith starts documenting this moment in our history. For this first installment, he speaks with MJ Towler, the “Black Wine Guy” from the “Wine Beats & Life” podcast. Towler dives into Grenache Fest — the Grenache festival he puts on in Washington State every year. This is how you do wine in America, and it’s awesome. What a great interview. What a great conversation with MJ.
