This interview is with Alex Altshuler of Demeus Wines. In this interview, Alex speaks about finding his path to wine in New Zealand, and then continuing his education and apprenticeship there and in Oregon. He speaks of his love for working nights and his offbeat approach to winemaking, particularly with his own brand Demeus.
Later, Alex speaks about the injury that took him out of the industry, what he's been working on since, and his thoughts on getting back into wine. He also dives into his music career and what might be next for that as well.
This interview was conducted by Rich Schmidt on July 9, 2025 at Alex's home in Rhodedendron.
