Adam & Joe pour a glass of Roth Cabernet from winemaker Henry de Lambert—a fitting choice considering Henry also provided 14 wine barrels that have found a second life as décor in the new restaurant.

From there, the conversation turns to Napa and new revelations surrounding the Pickett Fire, which devastated nearly 7,000 acres in wine country. Adam & Joe unpack what’s coming to light and what it means for a region they know, love, and talk about often.

Then it’s back to Florida and the new SoNapa Shores location, including a look at the restaurant’s “social media” kitchen and the opportunity it gives the chef to get creative. With access to fresh local seafood, daily fresh-catch features can keep the menu interesting—and give guests something new to discover and share.

Wine, wildfire revelations, restaurant design, and fresh catch. Just another round of Grapes & Debates.
