“Some people say, “What difference does it make what color the winemaker is that made the wine? Judge the wines off their own merit.” Like, of course. And I do believe that my wine is judged off its own merit. But the fact is that when you walk into places and people can’t believe that you’re the principal or you’re the owner or you made the wine, it’s mind-blowing to me some days. It’s like, wow. That’s why we need to continue talking about it.”
