Sip back and savor the insight as Bree Davis of Crew Selections joins us to uncork the layered world of sustainable winemaking. Our conversation takes root in the rich soil of environmental stewardship, branching out to discuss how a blend of practices including organic and biodynamic are reshaping vineyards from California's resource-scarce regions to Washington state's abundant landscapes. As we sample a vibrant Santa Barbara Pinot Noir and a crisp Lobo Hills Sauv Blanc, we'll explore the interplay between a region's bounty and its commitment to sustainability, and whether a plentiful environment might lead to a certain complacency in green efforts.
Venture through vineyard rows with us as we examine how geography and climate sculpt the winemaker's craft. Listen as we traverse the foggy Santa Rita Hills, delve into the deep roots of Paso Robles’ dry farming, and toast to the innovators reviving ancient grapes in Crete. Every glass tells a story, and ours is no exception as we celebrate the ocean's kiss on a Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire Valley and contemplate the volcanic intrigue of a Santorini Assyrtiko. These wines not only tantalize the palate but also whisper the secrets of their unique terroir.
Raise your glass to the mavericks of the wine world, those who challenge convention and enliven our senses with daring new techniques. Marvel at the creativity on display, from innovative fermentation practices to the clever spin behind a 'Right Bank Blend' that breaks free from preconceptions. We celebrate how visionaries like Morgan Lee and the mastery at Sandi Wines are cultivating not just grapes, but pioneering movements in the industry, embracing the unpredictable adventure of natural and low-intervention wines. Cheers to the bold, the audacious, and the artfully crafted wines that are transforming the tapestry of wine as we know it.
