He and the Westborn team are making dazzling sparkling wine drawing on exceptional small (and very well known) vineyards in #Sonoma, #Napa and #Mendocino. On the latest Postcards in a Glass (available from your favorite podcast source) he gives us the full picture. It’s a great story about great wine and he’s a lot fun to talk with. Join us, and Cheers!
