This trip marked a turning point in my career- to tour and travel in this unique area that grows and produces some of the greatest wines in the world helped to define my three goals in winemaking- food friendliness, longevity and to be authentic to a region and a traditional style. Little plots of land, multiple lots in the cellar producing individual, hand selected and crafted wines- it was here that the seed of Grapes of Roth was sown.
