R.H. Drexel has been part of the wine industry since she came of age to drink, and has worked with many of the greats: Opus 1, Caymus, critic Jeb Dunnuck, and many others. She has also built her own web zine called Loam Baby, about wine culture, and she has a newsletter called Holy COW, which stands for Child of Wine. But for all her high-level involvement in the wine industry — socializing, traveling, drinking, etc — Drexel is a down-to-earth woman who is kind, creative, and open to growth. She gets vulnerable here about her mental health, her admiration for her friend Robert Parker, and how California’s Central Coast and the great outdoors have helped heal her.
