I had so much fun recording this episode at our special Dear Media pop-up studio at LDV at the Maidstone in East Hampton with someone who is truly synonymous with the Hamptons: my dear friend Joey Wölffer.Joey shares the remarkable story of how her father came to America from postwar Germany and transformed Sagaponack potato fields into what would become Wölffer Estate Vineyard. She opens up about joining the family business at just 26, the challenges of taking over something she wasn’t always sure she wanted, and how she ultimately found her own place within her family's legacy.We also talk about the creation of the iconic Summer in a Bottle wines, what it was like to watch rosé become a phenomenon, and why Joey remains devoted to the “real Hamptons”—the local businesses, farming traditions, beaches and community that exist beyond the flashy summer party scene.Joey also shares why giving back to the community that raised her is so important, along with her ultimate Hamptons recommendations—from her favorite beach and lobster roll to the secret ingredient in her perfect spaghetti alle vongole.Check out Wölffer Estate Vineyard: https://wolffer.com/?srsltid=AfmBOorCNXwX3RBTkg2NcgpmYJ1uY3C_syaYVz7HE53h-k_bndbzbCWJThis episode is sponsored by: This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
