Serial is a series of hand-crafted wines from across Paso Robles–one of the most bio-diverse wine regions in America. The winery showcases some of the best winegrowers from across Paso's 11 Districts and sub-AVAs–and tells their stories through lush single varietal bottlings, nuanced blends, and vineyard designate releases.

"Serial Wines was founded on the premise of curiosity for Paso Robles as it fast-emerges as the next world-class winegrowing region. Jeff Kandarian, our winemaker, introduced us to incredible growers across Paso's diverse terroir—providing incredible range in crafting these wines," shared John Anthony Truchard, Founder and CEO John Anthony Wine & Spirits. "That's what drew Serial into the world of film—a shared passion for satisfying curiosity through creation. We are excited to pour Serial at these film festivals and share the story of these wines."

  • San Diego International Film Festival (Oct. 16 - 20, 2024): As the official wine sponsor of the annual festival celebrating the power of independent film, Serial will be pouring at the Opening Night Gala at the Museum of Photographic Arts on Oct. 16, offering attendees tastes of their 2023 Serial White Blend Paso Robles, 2021 Serial Red Blend Paso Robles, and the 2020 Serial Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon. Serial previously poured at the SDIFF Insider Series this summer, and looks forward to returning to share their outstanding wines with film lovers, filmmakers, and arts patrons alike.
  • Newport Beach Film Festival (Oct. 17 - 24, 2024): Serial is an official event sponsor of the Newport Beach Film Festival, celebrating its 25th year this year, and as such will have a presence at various events throughout the festival's run. Attendees can find Serial at the Opening Night Party on Oct. 17 at Fashion Island, where the winery will also be giving away tickets to their exclusive, annual Serial Masquerade party. Serial will also be pouring at invite-only festival events, including the Mayor's Reception and the Cinematographer Celebration.

San Diego International Film Festival CEO and Artistic Director, Tonya Mantooth, shared: "We are thrilled to partner with Serial Wines. They have such an exceptional selection of different varietals from the Paso Robles AVA that we can't wait to share with our festival attendees. Serial Wines thrive in the diverse terrain of their wine region and create something beautiful. We do the same here at the festival, as we share stories from around the world. Every year, the festival gives us this incredible opportunity to come together as a community, look at stories and issues together, and discuss their impact. We are excited to share that experience with Serial Wines."

"The Newport Beach Film Festival is incredibly excited to have Serial Wines as a sponsor for our 25th Anniversary celebration this year," said Newport Beach Film Festival Festival CEO and Co-Founder Gregg Schwenk. "Serial Wines' commitment to artful excellence mirrors our dedication in highlighting outstanding cinematic achievement.
