Former Race Car Driver Claims Wine Spectator's Top Spot for 2016
From the Indianapolis 500 to the Wine Spectator 100.
Randy Lewis’ best finish at the Indianapolis 500 was 14th in 1990 and 1991. Twenty-five years later, he’s got the Wine Spectator checkered table cloth in his sights.
From the magazine’s Friday unveiling of its top 100 wines for 2016:
Randy decided to become a winemaker in Napa Valley, learning on the job working for friend and vintner Bob Miner at Oakville Ranch while [his wife] Debbie studied the business. Miner’s death in 1994 forced the couple to seek a new path, but they have navigated it well, producing a bounty of exceptional wines over more than two decades.
