Of course, there are a whole lot of little wineries now, but this was the first one ever in this valley . Jacobson: Did the people at Davis tell you to plant Pinot blanc, Riesling, and Semillon with the idea that those would be the 17 McCrea: grapes that would grow best, or with the idea that they would diversify- -? Both. Actually, they've all done very well, too. The Semillon is the one that was planted where it is because it was a very hot spot. It was too hot for the others. Development of ...Interest in Winemakine Jacobson: How did your interest in wine develop? McCrea: Well, when you live in the middle of a whole bunch of people who talk about wine all the time [laughs], and you drink a lot of it, you naturally get interested in it.
