The Dreammakers enjoyed a glass of wine while they talked: Arros Wine from York Winery in the region of Nashik, India. A blend of Cabernet and Shiraz, it’s a bold, fruity wine with hints of oakiness. York Winery is family-owned and run and Chief Winemaker Kailash Gurnami is India’s youngest winemaker.
