One of the most pleasant memories of my youth is that of my first Major League baseball game.

Our Left Bank Red was another great idea from Tadeo. He proposed we make a wine from two low-elevation vineyards on our ranch — one Merlot and the other Cabernet Sauvignon — both of which are on the left bank of Conn Creek as it passes through our property on the way to Lake Hennessey.

In 1993, we were planning for our second harvest at Neyers Vineyards, and I contacted Angelo Sangiacomo about buying some Chardonnay grapes.
