Bret Perrenoud of Airis'Ele Vineyards
My guest today is Bret Perrenoud, is one of the owners of a newer winery in Fredericksburg called Airis'Ele Vineyards. Many in the Texas wine industry know him from his long stint as the general manager at Becker Vineyards. During this interview, Bret shares a lot of stories and lessons learned during his years at Becker and explains how those experiences prepared him to open Airisele in 2022 with his wife Chris and their partners John and Susie Bernard.
In the Texas news section, wineries are opening and closing and moving. And People moving too. We’ve got Texsom Awards results, a big Texas wine and travel article, an American wine drinking challenge, and several marquee events featuring Texas wine that you won’t want to miss this spring.
Cheers y'all!
