Great wine is a connection between the Earth and the people who have the dedication, patience and passion to nurture the energy that flows between the two. The romance of this connection hits me every time I see the vines. “The Earth responds slowly, you must go to the end of what you think, having an idea is not enough”, said Bize-Leroy, you must have a “oneness, empathy with the vines.”
The process of making wine can be learned, but the passion can only be felt. Wine is one of the most celebrated, studied and evaluated beverages in the world, yet in the end, it comes down to how you feel when you taste it. My favorite customers to the winery are the ones who don’t know wine. I love their open mind and the flexibility some offer when they trust me enough to share the experience of enjoying wine with me.
I am a certified wine expert and I work in the tasting room at Daveste Vineyards where I share my love of wine with everyone who visits. I host the private wine tastings every Sunday.
I am excited to share my wine journey with you…including my path to finding my place in the wine world and my favorite bottles along the way.
