I'm joined by Vailia and Russell From, two friends and winemakers pushing the boundaries of creativity and innovation in the wine industry, while staying focused on sustainability and being good stewards of the lands they cultivate.
Vailia has worked in all things wine\u2013 from the restaurant floor to sales to importing to harvesting, and now she\u2019s running her very own Desparada, a vineyard rooted in spirit and elegance. Russell is a wine creative\u2013 whether it\u2019s a wine that stays in contact with the grape skins for the duration of harvesting or the Tomboy, his only white wine offering that\u2019s described as \u201ca white for red wine lovers\u2013 he\u2019s constantly pushing creative boundaries at Herman Story Wines, which he owns and operates.
Join our conversation on winemaking, organic agriculture, stewardship of the land, sustainability, and taking the path less traveled. All you have to do is sit back, uncork (or unscrew, no judgements) some wine, and hit play.
