Getting to Know Winemaker Dave Specter
About this episode
Dave Specter discusses his journey in winemaking and the unique offerings of Bells Up Winery.
We're heading back to Bells Up Winery in Oregon's Willamette Valley with winemaker and co-owner Dave Specter! In this Big Blend Radio "Getting to Know You" interview, Dave talks about turning a dead Christmas tree farm into a thriving boutique winery, the music-inspired story behind the Bells Up name, rare grapes you won't find anywhere else in the Willamette Valley — including a sparkling Seyval Blanc and a soon-to-be-released Italian variety nearly wiped out in World War II. Plus, Dave answers our 7 Getting to Know You questions — his spirit animal, bucket list, theme song, dinner party nightmares, and strong opinions about heirloom tomatoes!
