Our first conversation is with Vic Motto, founder of both MKF, a top wine industry CPA firm, and Global Wine Partners, where Carol and Jaclyn both work.  Vic spent many years advising top companies in the industry from all over the world and with all types of business models, from Gallo to Screaming Eagle.  Vic talks about a number of keys to success in the industry, including the Top Priority for a winery owner or manager.  There are a number of luminaries who come up, from Koerner Rombauer to Ernie Gallo to Robert Mondavi.  Can you guess the famous joint venture Vic talks about between French and American wine companies?
