A.J. Weinzettel on his discovery of wine, some of his fave Oregon wineries, and "Weinnotes"

Hungry for More : an Epicurean's Dilemma

A.J. Weinzettel says he's on a journey to tell stories about the people and places behind wine. Growing up in Tennessee, wine wasn't necessarily a "thing"... it took a move to Oregon before he got bitten by the wine bug. He talks about the moment it happened and how it wasn't just what was in his glass that started this journey. It began with writing a newsletter and then a couple of years ago - a podcast where he interviews producers and hears their story and their own wine journey. The interview gets fairly heavy when Trish asks to name more than a handful of wineries that really express Oregon's flavor - it's serious business!
