The Wine Makers – Doug Stewart, Lichen Estate – Breggo Cellars
Doug Stewart grew up in Sonoma and had no connection to the wine business. At some point during his time developing several truly sustainable companies wine and grapes started to come into focus. In 2000 they bought a historic sheep farm in Anderson Valley. Eventually a winery named Breggo was launched, vines were planted, grapes were sold and then Breggo was sold. A new winery was launched called Lichen Estate, then Doug and Ana bought Breggo back. Are you keeping up or confused? Well this is just a small part of Doug's story so check out this week's show and make plans to visit him in Anderson Valley. [Ep310] www.breggo.com www.lichenestate.com www.avwines.com
