Now Grace Is Next.","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":4056,"description":"A UC Davis professor once told Cathy Corison she would never be a winemaker in the Napa Valley. As a woman, it simply wasn't done.\nShe didn't argue. She just went and did it anyway.\nNearly five decades later, Cathy is one of Napa's most respected voices — and her daughter Grace Corison Martin has come home to build on what her mother started.\nMatt talks with both of them about Kronos Vineyard, planted in 1959 on St. George rootstock and never replanted — through phylloxera, through the Parker era, through every stylistic wave the valley has ridden. They cover Grace's path from a BFA in acting to Union Square Cafe to coming home during COVID and discovering she'd been a winemaker all along. And they dig into the philosophy behind 40 vintages of Cabernet Sauvignon built for the table — wines defined by restraint, benchland fruit, and yields so low they'd make any business school professor wince.\nThis one covers a lot of ground: old vines, family succession, organic and regenerative farming, the broken three-tier system, and what it actually takes to build something meant to last.\nJoin the the list for a Bi-weekly newsletter with loads more wine insights and Matt's picks--\nhttps://list.robly.com/subscribe?a=0878917dffaf9516eaade2d00293973f\nThe official wine glass of the Wine Centric Show is Glasvin.\nUse code WINECENTRIC for 10% off at https://tidd.ly/41vgdSQ\nWe’re grateful for the support of our episode partners:\n📍 What You’ll Learn:\nOld vines and their impact on wine complexity\nBenchland terroir between Rutherford and St. Helena\nKronos Vineyard and its historical significance\nSustainable and organic farming practices\nCabernet Sauvignon winemaking philosophy at Corison\nBuilding a winery from purchased fruit to estate\nFamily legacy and generational transition in wine\nNapa Valley’s stylistic evolution and market pressures\nChapters:\n00:00 - The Legacy of Corazon Winery\n02:44 - Old Vines, Great Wines\n05:32 - Breaking Barriers: A Woman's Journey in Winemaking\n08:09 - The...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/vUFcStfgzzIgLspOTR6nSw_boW0s7hNF7Dbay33qG4M/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9mNDhm/ODNkYjEzNWYzMGI0/Yzg0ZTUzY2RlMGYw/OWY4Ni5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
