The Wine Makers – Tidings & Desire Lines

This week on the Wine Makers Pod-Two professors from Bedrock University, AKA Cody Rasmussen of Desire Lines Wines and Reid Griggs of Tidings Wines, visit to Bart, Brian and Sam for a conversation ranging from the microbiome of vineyards to the wine selection in Iowa college towns. Cody is the Associate Winemaker at Bedrock Wine Co. where Reid worked in 2016, one of his many internships at high profile wineries. Both are among the best and the brightest of California’s young winemakers. We dig into Reid’s research at UC Davis, Cody gets into the intricacies of fermenting Riesling, Brian discovers his new favorite California Cabernet and Sam dings wine glass until his finger turns black and blue.
