Today we are joined by Katarina Bonde, the owner and winemaker of West Wines. She reveals how she transitioned from a background in music and software to winemaking and shares unique experiences like harvest walks and library tastings at West Wines, fostering a sense of community in Dry Creek Valley.
Two(!) wines of the day:

Fast Five:
Richard's Summer Dessert!

Cut peaches in half, take out pit
Whisk butter, cinnamon and sugar into a paste.
Roughly chop pistachios
Dredge the peaches in the paste
Place on hot grill, flat side down first, char for about a minute and a half
