Welcome to the pilot episode (Season 1, Episode 1: Organic Origins) of "Frey Vines," the podcast devoted to telling the story of Organic Wine. As pioneers in Organic & Biodynamic wine, we created this podcast because we wanted to share our family’s process of building something special here in Mendocino County, the greenest American Viticultural Area (or AVA for short) in California. Wine Enthusiast declared Mendocino the AVA of the year for 2024 largely because of the wonderful, sustainably produced, and award-winning wines coming out of this beautiful region of Northern California.
With a 1/3 of California’s total organic grape production growing in this AVA, we believe that this distinction is in no small part due to the organic pioneering efforts of the Frey family. Join us for this "Organic Origins" episode to learn more about the foundations of organic wine in the USA!
