In November 2020, we brought Napa to the doors of several people across the nation as we hosted virtual wine tastings for the Mexican American Vintners Association (MAVA). This episode features Oscar and Lola Llamas, the owners of Llamas Family Wines.
Wine: 2018 Llamas Family Carneros Chardonnay
BIO:
Llamas Family Wines was founded in 2009 and is committed to making exceptional wines from the Napa Valley. They feel fortunate to be living the “American Dream”. Many family members came from Mexico to the United States in search of a better life. Originally ranchers from Jalisco, Mexico, the family migrated north to farm fields, orchards and vineyards. They worked tirelessly in all aspects of the wine industry, from tending the vines to producing wine. After over 40 years of farming the vines of Napa Valley, the family has further defined its agricultural heritage and takes great pride in sourcing grapes exclusively from vineyards farmed by the Llamas family.
