Spotlight on Greg Brewer: Santa Barbara’s Philosopher of Pinot Noir

Brewer-Clifton and Diatom winemaker Greg Brewer has dedicated decades to growing and making world-class Pinot Noirs from Santa Barbara County's Sta. Rita Hills AVA. After pouring his outstanding Pinot Noir at the 2024 New York Wine Experience, he joined us for an exclusive interview about his wine epiphanies, easing fears about wine, inspirational mentors and much more.
