    When Women Took the Lead

    This week brings us to the final installment. On our last afternoon filming Her Way, rather than focus on a single voice, we decided to widen the lens.  So we gathered a group of women around a table at Cadet Wine Bar in downtown Napa. Cadet is owned by Taylor Domin and Aubrey Bailey, whose warm hospitality and thoughtful wine list have made the space something of a community hub for industry folks drifting in after long days in vineyards and cellars. Joining Taylor Domin at the table were winemaker Priyanka Dhar French of Ghost Block and Napa Wine Co., wine writer J’nai Gaither — the first Black editor in the history of Wine Enthusiast — and multi-faceted wine entrepreneur Stevie Stacionis. Taylor herself, of course, sits right at the intersection of the people who make wine and the people who drink it.
