Growing quality wine grapes in the established grape growing regions of Central and Northern California has its own challenges. It requires a dizzying amount of knowledge, information and an incredible amount of finances and exhausting labor to achieve success. Growing quality wine grapes in the “non grape growing region” of Southern California would then seem an impossible and “crazy” task by industry standards.  B. Alan has adapted all of this knowledge and information in an attempt to help “all of those crazy people growing grapes in Southern California” achieve the highest quality of grapes possible.
