Conner Taylor’s Podcast of What to Drink – An Interview with Bruce and Barbara Neyers
I had the opportunity to meet up with industry veteran Conner Taylor a few weeks ago, and he invited Barbara and me to sit down with him to talk about wine and food. His Podcast interview was just released, and we thought you might enjoy listening in. Conner calls our talk ‘What to Drink with Roast Chicken’, and we focus on our Sage Canyon Red.

What to Drink Podcast – October 23, 2023
The 2023 harvest is almost in the books now, as we are scheduled to pick our last remaining vineyard on Wednesday — the Cabernet Sauvignon on Toni’s block of our Conn Valley ranch. I love this photo that Lizzie took this weekend, standing in Toni’s block, and looking north with the ÂME vineyard in the background. We pick entirely by hand, and the grapes are placed in these one-half-ton white picking bins for transport to the winery. The structure in the center of the photo is a wind machine that we use to protect vines from frost in the spring. We also used it twice this fall after a light rainfall, in order to dry off the leaves and clusters.
