Ep 156: 20 Years of Torrin: From Helping Others to Holding His Own (Part 1)- Featuring Torrin Wines

? Where Wine Takes You – Episode 156:  20 Years of Torrin: From Helping Others to Holding His Own ? In this episode of Where Wine Takes You, Adam sits down with one of Paso’s most respected and quietly legendary winemaking couples, Scott and Viquel Hawley of Torrin Wines, as they mark their 20th vintage. From their landlocked beginnings between Booker and L’Aventure to becoming one of Paso’s benchmark brands, the Hawleys share their winemaking philosophy, what balance means to them, and the soulful evolution of their wines. They even open a bottle of their very first vintage — 2006 — and talk about what’s changed, what hasn’t, and how Torrin continues to define West Side Paso. In the Paso Wine Wire, Adam reflects on the sudden loss of Jake Beckett of Peachy Canyon, and honors his impact on Paso wine. Plus, a locals-only deal for Paso Wine Fest 2026, and Hope Family Wines takes center stage as the new official wine of Vina Robles Amphitheatre. This episode’s Travel Paso Spotlight features the newly renovated Bellesera Hotel, now part of the Hilton Tapestry Collection. Adam chats with GM Benny Cendali about the hotel’s full transformation, new dining direction, and why Bellesera is a true local-meets-luxury experience for visitors and staycationers alike. • Torrin Wines: torrinwines.com • IG: @torrinwines ?
