Welcome to Reach Wine Consulting, I am Paul Warson. I was born and raised in Studio City, California and left in 1990 to attend the University of California, Davis. Although I initially headed to college to major in Biology in anticipation of going to medical school, my path took a very different turn. Ultimately I began taking classes in the fermentation science department, all in hopes of perfecting the home brew that my roommates and I had started concocting. As I began to delve further into fermentation science and subsequently viticulture and enology, I stumbled upon my passion: “winemaking”. After my college graduation in 1995, I started working internships at various Northern California wineries in addition to a harvest in New South Wales, Australia. Upon my return to the United States, I found myself making wine in Napa, California where I remained until 2009. At that time I left the area to move south to the Santa Ynez Valley, where I was the Winemaker for a large well-known winery, in addition to several smaller wine labels. In 2016, it was apparent that my parents, who resided in Studio City needed full time live-in assistance. As a result, I along with my wife and 3 kids moved back to the San Fernando Valley to take on this responsibility.
