Ep 519: Mike Colizzi, Kashong Glen Vineyards, New York Grower 2023 Series, 3/7

I’m Lawrence Francis, Host of Interpreting Wine, welcoming you to the New York Grower 2023 Special Series. Across these 7 episodes recorded in Feb and Mar 2023 we’ll be exploring the modern New York Grower 2023 scene in the company of 6 producers. Including a Deep Dive into the New York Wine and Grape Foundations’ Sustainable Vineyard Certification. Absolutely reflecting the most up-to-date realities of grapegrowing in the region. Given the level of interest in my listeners and the wider wine trade in quality grapes as the basis for quality wines, a series I’m particularly excited to share and a real landmark for the channel.  Subscribe to be alerted when new series episodes go live.
