Show Notes
In this episode of "The Good Stuff" presented by the Sonoma County Winegrowers, hosts Virginie Boone and Karissa Kruse talk with Dan Rotlisberger, Vineyard Estate Manager for Robert Young Estate Winery. Dan is a fifth generation Alexander Valley farmer and board member for Sonoma County Winegrowers. Dan is also the great grandnephew of Robert Young's late wife Gertrude. He learned how to be a farmer from his grandfather, who Dan says was one of the hardest workers he ever knew. Prior to his role at Robert Young, Dan worked as a Senior Viticulturist at Redwood Empire Vineyard Management - a job he liked to call Vineyard University, because he dealt with all kinds of varietals and learned all aspects of vineyard management. At Robert Young he has helped to replant older blocks, and has made a commitment to sustainability, especially knowing that the decisions he makes will impact generations. And finally, Virginie and Karissa share their Tuesday Night wine picks.
