On The Wine Road Podcast

Join me as I make my way across Northern California and beyond to talk with those who produce some of the world's most exceptional wine and craft beer. They all have a unique story to tell. 

  1. All Episodes
  2. The Mighty Mondavis and Boutique LaRue Wines

Aug 10, 2019

CK Mondavi and Family of Napa Valley is currently ranked at #16 in annual case production for US vintners. That's large. LaRue Wines of the Sonoma Coast region produces less than a thousand cases. My guests are Randy Herron of CK Mondavi and Family, and Katy Wilson of LaRue. I thought it would be fascinating to hear the differences between these two brands. Randy crafts more than half a dozen varietals that are priced in the Value category. Katy focuses on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir priced at the Luxury level. Nevertheless, these two share an easy going nature and make wines that are exceptional for their price range. A Wine Uncorked feature is also included in the podcast. A little trivia gift from me to you.
