Featured on the Wine Road Podcast – My Journey with Spicy Vines
I recently had the honor of joining the hosts of the Wine Road Podcast for Episode 234 — and I have to say, it was a full-circle moment for me. This podcast has long been one of my favorite ways to hear about the people, places, and stories that shape our wine region.
As a winery owner, I’ve always found it valuable to listen to other industry voices — their philosophies on winemaking, their branding strategies, and the behind-the-scenes stories from their tasting rooms. So, when I was invited to share my journey on the show, I was beyond honored.
All Started with a Wild Idea
In the episode, I opened up about how Spicy Vines was built from the ground up — with no legacy vineyard, no trust fund, and no corporate backing. Just a wild idea, a lot of hustle, and a deep belief that I could create something different.
I shared the story of how a passion for wine, combined with an obsession for creating a more vibrant and welcoming tasting room experience, led me to open one of Sonoma County’s boldest boutique wineries.

For Anyone Dreaming Big
If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to launch a winery from scratch — or you’re simply curious about what makes Spicy Vines unique — I’d love for you to listen in. We talked about the risks, the rewards, and the real work behind bringing a dream to life.
