“Home” by Jack Johnson, is a song that was selected by my wife Erika. I always ask her to help me name this wine, because Syrah is her favorite. When she was pregnant with Evan, we would listen to the Jack Johnson album “From Here to You Now” on repeat. You might remember, my last vintage of Syrah was named “I Got You” from the same album.

Erika was drawn to this song because of the beauty and sweet sentiment of the lyrics, “So I, try, to understand, what I can't hold in my hand, and where ever we are, home is there too and if you, could try to find it too, cause this place is overgrown into with works in bloom, home is wherever we are, if there's love there too.”

The balance between work and life is a challenge for us all, especially when both partners are driven in their own careers and personal endeavors, but we each have a goal to make time with our son a priority, doing things that nourish us as a family. Home is that place for us, where the heart is, and where we always have Syrah on hand.
