Weston Eidson: A Live Chat With the Winemaker and His “Vertical”
Live from The Magnolia Wine Bar! SWTW’s first live event was a smashing hit and this episode has 2 parts – our pregame interview with Weston Eidson and snippets of our live discussion with audience participation – in the wine tasting of course! We’ll apologize in advance for the background noise!
When winemaker Weston Eidson lets Mother Nature play leading lady in his wine styles for Montagu and Silver Ghost, popping the cork on his verticals is a delicious exploration. In prepping for this episode, Charisse, Weston and Kristi searched high and low for the Silver Ghost 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon to round out our vertical tasting. Not every plan comes together and we had to get creative!
- 2019 Silver Ghost was obviously a huge fan favorite – we couldn’t find any anywhere!
- 2020 fires in Napa were Mother Natures cruel way of testing Weston’s winemaking legacy as he scrapped his entire harvest rather than make smoke tainted wine
Never fear, we had the perfect solution! 2020 Montagu Pinot Noir, 2021 and 2022 Silver Ghost Cabs! Not the typical vertical, but the wines led us down a fabulous path of exploration! Stay tuned for a fun filled, informative chat followed by a whole lot of wine chatter!
