Many African Americans may not consider winemaking a significant part of their cultural heritage, but a number of successful African American winemakers are challenging that assumption. In fact, two recent television series, The Kings of Napa and Grand Crew, focus on African American winemaking families and friends who bond over wine. But those stories are fictitious. To get a more personal feel, I contacted Phil Long. Long is the current president of the Association of African American Vintners, and the owner of Longevity Wines in Livermore, California.
