Just curious on names of winemakers you are watching as they make their way in the US wine world, not looking for established names like Mike Smith or TRB but newer names. The two that spring to my mind are Chris Tynan and Ketan Mody
I would add a few folks ‘down here’ that may not be noticed but should be:
Laura Roach for sparkling
Ryan Devolet
Steve Clifton (not a newbie but has never gotten the credit as a winemaker he deserves)
Matt Dees (again, never given credit for how good a winemaker he is)
I’ll be curious to see where David Gregga goes as his career progresses. I believe he’s currently the assistant wine-maker at TOR. He’s an Iraq Veteran and has been an acquaintance of mine for the better part of a decade.
I wonder if it would be useful to mention both the winemaker and the current winery where they work. I don’t recognize many of these names and would be curious to try some of their wines.
