(2018) On this episode, we meet a winemaker with a true passion for both his wine, and the land that yields it. We take you to the heart of the Walla Walla Valley for the story behind Gifford Hirlinger, and the young family making a great go of it.
Then we take a road trip to Garden City, Idaho, to meet one of the only cider makers in the area. Wait til you hear what kind of effort it takes to make the great products at Meriwether Cider Company. We then swing over to Oregon and enjoy the story behind Sno Road Winery...the first winery in Echo.
Join host Brian Calvert for all this, plus Master of Wine Bob Betz of Betz Family Winery stops by to answer our wine questions, Justin Stiefel of Heritage Distilling Company mixes-up our "Drink of the Week." and Idaho Wine presents "Bites and Bottles," a fun food pairing with wine, craft beer, and spirits featuring Chef Kathy Casey.
