What does lineage mean when it comes to wine? For our guest today lineage means everything. Steven Kent Mirassou\\u2019s family is America\\u2019s oldest winemaking family - older than the Mondavi\\u2019s, the Sebastianis and the Gallos. He\\u2019s now working side-by-side with the seventh generation. If you are a Pinot Noir lover, you can thank Mirassou\\u2019s ancestors for bringing the some of the first pinot vine cuttings to California.

In his first full, sit down interview, sixth generation vintner Steven Kent Mirassou gives us the inside scoop on his deeply personal book Lineage: Life and Love and Six Generations in California Wine.

Join us, the Marys, as we introduce you to Steven and his stories. Lineage is a page turner - and definitely not your typical wine book. It is a love letter to wine and highly personal, with emotional highs and lows and sprinkled with racy language!
