Due to Covid, this season is less "Ride Between the Wines" and more "Sip Between the Internet?"
Fortunately, I have been able to interview a whole slew of amazing folks, virtually, from around the world
In this episode I had the great pleasure of speaking with Kathryn Hall. Tune in to hear a snapshot of the amazing story someone who went from loving wine, to creating some of the best (and most highly rated) wines to come out of Napa Valley! Such a delight, and so humble, I really cannot say enough about the pleasure it was to speak (and taste with) Kathryn. Enjoy!

I had the amazing opportunity to speak with Melissa Stackhouse, Sonoma icon and director of winemaking for Simi Winery. Melissa tells me all about her experiences and her wine, as well as the history (and future) of this truly, iconic winery.
