Very cool. Thanks for posting.

I finally got around to perusing this website - specifically the interviews section. Watched a great interview with John Paul of Cameron. As one of my favorite wineries in Oregon, I learned a lot about the history.

Many other interviews I plan to watch, and looking forward to watching the recently filmed interview with Marcus Goodfellow when it’s posted.

The interviews should be a winner! Fun to here about the history of the wineries.

…and here I thought it would disappear quietly and anonymously into a pile of microfiche in a quiet small town college. Please remember it isn’t scripted, and if there are subjects you think the interviews are missing please PM me.

Stoked. Something to explore on the long flight home from Serbia. Even wearing a Goodfellow family cellars tee shirt. Good Karma I think.

Oops! [wow.gif]

Just watched your interview. Unsurprisingly, your answers were direct, extremely informative, and occasionally amusing. The only part that gave me pause was your answer to the question about where you expect to be in 10 years. I believe you were joking (and hope so) with your response as your kiddos won’t be ready to take over by then! As you know from our conversations on the matter, succession plans for some of my favorite OR wineries is a concern. Your response (even in jest) did not help. blush

Up next, Kelley and Ken & Erica.

Was searching for more info an Oregon producer when I came across this site. Such a vast wealth of information coming directly from Oregon producers, and quite a few interview with well-loved Oregonian Berserkers. I probably binged watched a few hours of interviews yesterday. Highly recommend it to people looking to learn more about a particular Oregon producer, or just Oregon wines in general. Surprised to see so little views on these interviews and so little reference to them by people on the forum.
