Wine Road Podcast Episode 187

In episode 187 we were joined by special guest Renae Perry from Papapietro Perry. Renae shares the joyous news of their 2020 Russian River Valley blend of Pinot Noir scoring a perfect 100 points at the Sunset Magazine competition. This exciting achievement comes amidst challenging times, as the 2020 vintage has been unfairly criticized due to the wildfires.

Renae’s passion for winemaking echoes throughout this episode. She emphasizes the significance of not writing off a vintage based on generalized assumptions and encourages wine lovers to rely on their taste buds instead of everything they read. Beyond their exceptional wines, Papapietro Perry is also known for its engaging events. In the coming months, they have a holiday photo shoot and Riedel wine glass seminars lined up. We also delve into other topics like the rising popularity of pickleball, the ideal golfing spots in the area and preferred local eateries. As Papapietro Perry celebrates its 25th anniversary, they continue to foster a deep connection with their wine club members by providing not just exquisite wines but also unique experiences.
