Show Notes
In this episode of "The Good Stuff" presented by the Sonoma County Winegrowers, hosts Virginie Boone and Karissa Kruse talk with Andy Peay, owner of Peay Vineyards. After a few years on Wall Street as a financial analyst, a dinner with Andy’s brother Nick (lamb paired with a cool climate Syrah!) set him on his path into the wine business. Andy worked on harvests, and enrolled in classes. He also spent time working in retail shops. He and Nick were on a quest to find land to grow cool climate Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Syrah. Together, the brothers purchased land on the Sonoma Coast, planting their first grapes in 1998. A family business, Peay Vineyards continues to focus on soil health and fish-friendly farming, as well as delicious wines. And finally, Virginie and Karissa share their Tuesday Night wine picks.
