As editor in chief Giancarlo Gariglio likes to point out, one of the things that sets the Slow Wine guide apart from others is the fact that \u201cit tells the grape growers\u2019 and winemakers\u2019 stories.\u201d We make a point of visiting every estate in person in order to better learn and tell those stories. And it wouldn\u2019t be possible without the invaluable help of our contributing \u201cfield editors.\u201d Below, please meet field editor Michelle Gilkey, who contributed to this year’s California guide.
