- Food
Bryan Mahoney is a partner and "volunteer winemaker" at Lieu Dit Winery. Lieu Dit is a partnership of longtime friends Eric Railsback and Justin Willett. They were among a small group of young winemakers and restaurateurs in Santa Barbara unified by a common interest in wine and all its mysteries. After countless bottles shared together and many trips to France, Railsback and Willett decided to found Lieu Dit in 2011 and focus it solely in the varieties indigenous to the Loire Valley, now grown in Santa Barbara County. Lieu Dit centers on Sauvignon Blanc as well as limited bottlings of Melon de Bourgogne, Chenin Blanc, Cabernet Franc and Rosé of Pinot Noir. Each vintage, the quest for purity, elegance, and balance in every wine is paramount.
In this episode, Bryan dives deep into his wine selection and the perfect food pairings for each. He also answers questions from our community, and shares interesting stories about his wine journey.
