Episode Details

This episode features Marcus Notaro, Head Winemaker, at Stag's Leap Wine Cellars in Napa Valley. This was a chance for me to ask Marcus about grapegowing and winemaking in central Washington, where he used to make wine for Col Solare focusing on vineyards in the Red Mountain AVA. Our conversation covered Marcus' background, viticulture in Washington, "stabulation," a new idea to me, styles of Chardonnay, and Cabernet from Stag's Leap.
