Dan O’Brien has worked throughout the wine industry, first starting in high-end restaurants in the North East, eventually moving out west to San Francisco to start the Grand Award-winning wine program at Cavallo Point. From there he started the Cultivar wine label, was the estate director for Long Meadow Ranch & Larkmead Vineyards, started the Hunt & Harvest wine label, and now is dedicating all of his time and efforts to Gail.
In this episode, Dan and I dig into his history. From where he started, sneaking bottles into his parent’s house, to making his own wine. We chat about the work that he’s done and is doing, with Long Meadow Ranch, Larkmead Vineyards, Scribe, and the Sonoma Valley Growers Association. Most importantly, Dan shares about the history, beauty, and passion for wines coming from Sonoma Valley.
