IWP Ep113 Aaron Brown - Arable
IWP Ep113 Aaron Brown - Arable. I recently sat down for a great conversation with Aaron Brown of Arable. You might know Aaron from Dos’ Bar or Bardos. Arable is the great new project he’s been working on with the Future Collective of Sonoma. You probably heard the trailer on the podcast for the first panel discussions that were released earlier this year. There are new discussion episodes coming out with folks like previous podcast guests Matt Niess, Chris Renfro and Jack Sporer. If you like the podcast, you’ll really appreciate what Aaron is doing with Arable. It’s available through the Future Collective website and Youtube Chanel and as an audio podcast. Aaron is doing some great interesting work, exploring these hidden gems of Sonoma and shining a light on folks working in the local wine community. You can find links to the episodes for all platforms at https://www.thefuturecollective.org/arable and follow them at thefuturecollective.sv/ to hear about new episodes.

IWP Ep111 Jake Des Voignes - Heleje Wine Co. w/ Andrew Sullivan
IWP Ep111 Jake Des Voignes - Heleje Wine Co. w/ Andrew Sullivan. Andrew Sullivan and I recently traveled to Lodi to meet up with Jake Devoiges of Heleje wine company. Jake runs Heleje with his wife Shauna where together they make some great low intervention wines. They moved here after succeeding as Chefs in San Francisco at the highest levels. Jake also farms the 2 family vineyards, The Fernow Ranch and Hartwick Family Vineyard where they live. On both he’s at the forefront of farming in Lodi, starting at organic but pushing through with regenerative practices and utilizing the products of the ranch to help further his goal. They supply fruit to at least 4 producers who have been on the podcast. Jake gave us a great tour of the vineyard and you can hear most of that at the very end of the episode, it’ll give you great insight into the intricacies of what they are doing. On our way there we stopped at the always great Lodi Visitors Center which is a great place to pick up wines made by small Lodi producers or other small producers working with Lodi fruit, everyone that works there is great too. Jake and Shauna are part of this new breed of small producer farming responsibly at a high quality in Lodi. A few of the grapes that they grow have very few other organic sources in California or sometimes none at all. The Heleje wines are always well made, clean wines with minimal or occasionally no sulfur and help show what Lodi is capable of. The white wines especially deserve your attention in a region so famous for Zinfandel. You can follow them at https://www.instagram.com/helejewineco/ and find their wines at https://heleje.myshopify.com/.

IWP Ep110 Carlos Caruncho - Arquiles Wines
IWP Ep110 Carlos Caruncho - Arquiles Wines. I recently sat down with Carlos Caruncho of Arquiles wines outside his home in Nevada City. As some of you may know Carlos is closing Arquiles down to move to England as a consultant and potentially make some wine. He’s lived there before, as well as Cuba where he grew up and the Soviet Union. Carlos along with a group of like minded producers have been showing the high quality, natural 0/0 wines can achieve in the northern foothills. He explains growing up in Cuba, his earliest wine memories and the ways he shepherds through clean and expressive natural wines. There might still be some bottles available through Carlos or your favorite natural wine shop but move fast.

IWP Ep109 Chris McGilvray - Director "Eden" Documentary
I recently connected with Chris McGilvray director of the Documentary “Eden”. Eden follows Mt Eden Winemaker Jeffrey Patterson and his family for over a period of 7 years. We dive into how Chris found himself shooting a film a couple thousand feet above Silicon Valley, growing up in the heart of the valley, his production and post production process and we fall into a discussion about creativity in general near the end. Chris has captured a great film and I think it can be enjoyed by wine lovers and others but you’ll probably get a little extra out of it if you crack a good bottle and watch it down. You can find it at https://www.edenfilm.info/ and follow the film at https://www.instagram.com/Eden.docufilm.

IWP Ep108 Gideon Beinstock - Clos Saron An Unfiltered Wine Festival Conversation with Gideon, Chris Renfro and Matt Wood at Friend of a Friend. A few weeks ago Chris Renfro of the 280 project and I sat down and talked with Gideon Beinstock of Clos Saron as part of an Unfiltered Wine Festival talk. Andrew Sullivan from Unfiltered coordinated everything and organized a great evening of allowing Gideon to tell stories of his wine journey and his search for wines of place. Chris was nice enough to host us at Friend of a Friend, his great wine shop in the North Beach area of San Francisco. We had an amazing crowd in Chris’s shop as Andrew poured a selection of wines that Gideon had brought down from Oregon House. Tickets for Unfiltered are on sale now, the festival is fast approaching on July 25 and 26, you can get tickets at https://www.donkeyandgoat.com/unfiltered/.

IWP Ep107 Noel Diaz - Purity Wine - Catching up Before By The Way
IWP Ep107 Noel Diaz - Purity Wine - Catching up Before By The Way Noel Diaz of Purity wine and I grabbed a little time before the recent By The Way Festival to get some of his thoughts about the current natural wine industry, selling wine, the bright spots and the challenges. Some of the themes discussed are similar to what we talked about in the recent Andrew Sullivan episode, but from a small producer perspective. The Purity space has acted as an incubator and collective to many small projects and the by the way festival holds a special place in my heart because that’s where the very first recording for the podcast took place so it always feels great to be back there. Noel was the first guest on the podcast and you can check out episode 2 if you want the full story.Follow the podcast at www.instagram.com/indiewinepodcast or email indiewinepodcast@gmail.com with questions, comments or feedback.

IWP Ep106 Book Report: Idwal Jones - "Vines in the Sun" and "The Vineyard"
IWP Ep106 Book Report: Idwal Jones - "Vines in the Sun" and "The Vineyard". And Still The Vine, Her Ancient Ruby Yields. Today we’re discussing the author Idwal Jones, one of my favorite wine writers and one of the more unique ones that California has produced. But, he isn’t really a wine writer, his only wine related books are 1 non fiction-ish book and 1 novel on wine but they are both best in class. His Novel, The Vineyard is remarkable for how much it puts you into the setting of a Napa Valley winery pre-prohibition. While Vines in the Sun takes you on a tour through the vineyards and wineries of early California winemaking, making stops up and down the state. A cross between a 19th century travelog and Anthony Bourdain or Hunter S Thompson. Both were written in the mid 1900’s and still read vividly today.
