What happens when an NFL quarterback becomes a wine entrepreneur? Drew Bledsoe shares the wine that changed everything—the 1998 Viader—and the full-circle moment he had with its winemaker.

He discusses his focus on integrity in the cellar, the role geology plays in his approach, and the team-first mindset behind his estate-driven Washington wines.

In this episode, we cover:

    •    The injury that changed his career

    •    How family shaped his next chapter

    •    Building Doubleback, Bledsoe | McDaniels, and Bledsoe Family Wineries

    •    An idea about two very different Josh McDaniels
