About this episode

The episode features an interview with Beth Novak and Aron Weinkauf from Spottswoode Estate discussing their sustainable practices and the history of the vineyard.

On today's podcast, we interview Beth Novak, President & CEO, and Aron Weinkauf, Winemaker & Vineyard Manager, of Spottswoode Estate. We deeply respect Spottswoode for its farming practices and the wines it produces; they are among our favorites in the valley. Spottswood is a family-owned winery that cares not just about the vines they farm or the wines they produce, but also the people involved in making them. The estate has a long history, and it is one of the only vineyards in California certified regenerative organic, which we obviously love. We dive into the property's history, Beth and Aron's journey, their industry-leading progressive farming and winemaking practices, and what Napa needs going forward.
