THE RAPTURE OF BIODYNAMIC WINE with Barbara Gross of Cooper Mountain Vineyards
Manage episode 455071813 series 2809909
Today we salut the multidimensional medicine of the vine with Barbara Gross of Cooper Mountain Vineyards!
Barbara is a visionary in organic, biodynamic, alternative viticulture. As a second generation, natural wine grower and purveyor, our guest has faced countless challenges on a daily and multi-generational scale. Her family has devoted the last 46 years to transform conventional vineyards in Oregon’s Willamette Valley into thriving, biodiverse, regenerative ecosystems; specializing in the cultivation of Pinot Noir (a varietal of grape most sensitive to environmental stress and the fluctuations of climate change). Through it all, Barbara has emerged as a sort of wildly down to earth, renegade leader in the wine industry.
Tune in, pour yourself a glass of healing wine or tea and muse upon this Dionysian thought: could biodynamically farmed and alchemized wine help save our beloved Earth?
