Have you ever pictured yourself coming home at the end of your work day with mud-stained boots from working in a vineyard, or red wine stains on your shirt after shoveling grapes in a winery?
Well if getting your hands dirty speaks to you, then strap your hat on for today’s episode.
Our guest is Nate Weis, the VP of Winegrowing and a winemaker at the prestigious Silver Oak Winery and Twomey Cellars. He will give you a sense of what it’s like to work in the vineyard and in the wine cellar, from entry level jobs to being the boss.
