As the late summer days started to blend into the early hints of fall, I made a conscious decision to unplug from almost all social media and focus on what truly matters in life—my family.

The history of Colorado's wine production is a tale of resilience and transformation. Dating back to the late 1800s, the state's viticultural efforts faced challenges ranging from Prohibition to harsh climate conditions. However, the modern era has seen a remarkable resurgence.

For me, that has meant dedicating time to focus on something that I love to do, creating new recipes and selecting just the right wine or spirit pairings.
