Young Professionals: Blake Johnson

Meet the rising stars who are leading the Capital Region from the heart

Blake Johnson, 37, once told himself he wouldn’t follow his mother’s career path.

Remembering Charles Myers, winemaker of West Sacramento’s Harbor Winery

In 1968, a lone vintner set out to prove the region’s surviving mission grapes were still marketable. He was in a race against time: Most of the landmark roots were being torn out during that epoch, their soil swapped for better commercial farming options. The late Charles Myers set off a chain of events that would ultimately launch Amador County onto the global wine market.
