Rarig Ross of Ferris & Fletch Wine Co.
My guest on episode 106 is Rarig Ross. Rarig and his wife Ellery co-own and operate Ferris & Fletch Wine Co in Fredericksburg, and Rarig is also the winemaker. You'll hear how his wine story started in California and is unfolding here in Texas. He has some exciting news to share about a significant expansion and a new brand...or two. In Texas wine neww, top stories include the James Suckling report on Texas wine, a Top 50 ranking for a Texas winery in the World's 50 Best Vineyards, and recent wine competition scores. There's a new Texas wine article in Texas Monthly, and more. Thanks for listening! Cheers y'all!
