Inside Chateau Montelena Today: Matt Crafton on Leadership, JOP 50th Legacy & Modern Napa Wine, Ep. 127
<p>What does it take to lead one of Napa Valley’s most iconic wineries into the future—especially in a milestone year? In this episode, Matt Crafton, winemaker and president of Napa Valley’s <a href="https://montelena.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Chateau Montelena</a>, reflects on guiding the winery during the 50th anniversary of the Judgment of Paris—the moment their 1973 Chardonnay stunned the world by beating top white Burgundies from France.</p><p>While that historic win put Montelena on the global map, Matt emphasizes that the real responsibility today isn’t reliving the past—it’s honoring it through innovation and consistency. He shares how the winery continues to focus on long-term decisions, resisting industry trends in favor of site-driven wines that prioritize balance, ageability, and a true sense of place.</p><p>While Chateau Montelena is celebrating that feat this year there’s barely any of the 1973 Chardonnay left. You can find an unopened bottle on display at the winery and one in the Smithsonian. It makes us wonder how relevant is the judgment of Paris today? Is the legacy strong or fading? And will it be celebrated in 10, 20, even another 50 years from now? We’re happy that Matt Crafton is here to discuss this and to bring us up to date on how Chateau Montelena has evolved - and continues to evolve - since that fateful tasting. </p>

Judgment of Paris at 50: Still Relevant? Esther Mobley’s take plus her 10 Years at the San Francisco Chronicle Covering a Changing Wine Industry, Ep 126
<p>We’re popping the cork on a milestone moment, the 50th anniversary of the Judgment of Paris, the legendary blind tasting that shocked the wine world and put California wine on the global map in a big way. To help us unpack what it all meant then and what it means now, we’re joined by wine journalist Esther Mobley, formerly of the San Francisco Chronicle. </p><p>We’ll chat about how that legendary showdown reshaped the wine scene, what’s changed over the last five decades in California and where things are headed next. </p><p>Plus we’ll get to know Esther, her path into wine, what’s next for her since departing the Chronicle.</p><p>During Esther’s tenure at the Chron, extreme wildfires raged through Napa,Sonoma, the Santa Cruz Mountains and more. Then came the pandemic when people stocked up on wine and booze to drink at home. Yet post pandemic America’s thirst for wine is drying up. We also saw Napa Valley becoming increasingly and some say too expensive to visit. </p><p>As Esther leaves the Chronicle for a new chapter, she comments on the state of the California wine industry, bright spots amid all the gloom and doom and what she thinks will happen in the next decade in wine.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
