    IWP Ep63 The California Wine Association (CWA) - Part 7 - The Wine Men

    IWP Ep63 The California Wine Association (CWA) - Part 7 - The Wine Men - Today is part 7 and the conclusion of my series on the California Wine Association. This episode is titled “The Wine Men” If you’ve stuck around this long, I hope you enjoyed it.  Today we’ll discuss some of the winemakers, blenders and tasters of the CWA.  Those responsible for what was actually in the consumers glass.  The CWA was run like a real business of the time so much of what we have are those business records but I want to try and piece a little together about the other side of the business.  The people, their palettes and how the wine was made.

    IWP Ep62 The California Wine Association (CWA) - Part 6 - The Dark Days

    IWP Ep62 The California Wine Association (CWA) - Part 6 - The Dark Days. This is part 6 of my series on the California Wine Association.  Last time we saw the CWA rebuild post earthquake and fire as they constructed the largest winery in the world, Winehaven, on the shores of San Francisco Bay.  Despite that, they still gorged themselves on wineries and vineyards until it was too much and they had to get rid of them.  The first true downturn of the CWA.  During this time they also dealt with the deaths of the men that led the Association all those years.  And then prohibition hit.

    IWP Ep61 The California Wine Association (CWA) - Part 5 - Winehaven

    IWP Ep61 The California Wine Association (CWA) - Part 5 - Winehaven. This is part 5 in my series on the California Wine Association. “WineHaven”  Last time we saw the CWA battle against the “Calamity” as the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake and Fire were called.  Much of San Francisco was destroyed and the CWA suffered huge losses of wine, over 10 million gallons plus offices, cooperage, warehouses and cellars.  The amount of wine in their country cellars throughout California, as well as some heroic action from members of the company would allow them to continue.  But the rebuilding and a short 1906 crop would place added pressure on Morgan.   Follow the podcast ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/indiewinepodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or email indiewinepodcast@gmail.com with questions, comments or feedback.

    IWP Ep60 Jeff and John Perlegos - Perlegos Family Wine Co.

    We’re going to take a quick break from the California Wine Association series to talk with the Perlegos Brothers, Jeff and John about Perlegos Family wines.  You’ve probably had wines made from their grapes by Maître De Chai, Fields Family, Bedrock, Haarmeyer, Sandlands and Sabelli Frish.  Since 2020 they have been producing their own wines.  Most from fruit they farm and others from some of the best growers in Lodi.  The wines are balanced with moderate alcohols and bright acids. We talk about their upbringing and Greek heritage, their Stampede and Cherry house vineyards, why they started producing their own wines and the Assyrtiko plantings they farm.  We recorded this episode at the Lodi Wine Commission offices and the Lodi Visitors Center.  It’s a great place to try and to purchase wines from Perlegos and other small Lodi producers that might not have a public tasting room. Find thier wines at Perlegoswine.com and follow them at instagram.com/perlegos_wine Follow the podcast ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/indiewinepodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or email indiewinepodcast@gmail.com with questions, comments or feedback.

    IWP Ep59 The California Wine Association (CWA) - Part 4 - The Calamity Edition

    IWP Ep59 The California Wine Association (CWA) - Part 4 - The Calamity Edition. Today is part 4 in my series on the California Wine Association.  “The Calamity Edition”  Last time we saw the CWA gobble up their competitors after the end of the wine wars.  They absorbed wineries, vineyards and wine houses.   When they couldn’t purchase the entire company, they would get half.  Allowing companies to operate with the veil of independence would keep the antitrust folks away. It was all fair game and they came out with control of over 2/3rds of the wine in the state. Today we see how they do in a battle against mother nature.

    IWP Ep58 The California Wine Association (CWA) - Part 3 - Shopping Spree

    IWP Ep58 The California Wine Association (CWA) - Part 3 - Shopping Spree. This is part 3 of my series on the California Wine Association.  Last episode we saw them battle the California Wine Makers Corporation in the so called “Wine Wars”  The CWA was able to come out on top, as the winemakers Corporation was never able to truly work as 1 entity.  The CWA was also able to hang on as wine prices dropped and dropped, making it tough to survive for those smaller producers. The production of California wine is firmly in the CWA’s control now.  Today we see how they went from being large to being massive and became the dominating presence in California Wine.  Follow the podcast ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/indiewinepodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or email indiewinepodcast@gmail.com with questions, comments or feedback.
