Pioneering grape grower Charlie Barra talks briefly about the early wine market in the United States and his experience selling to Robert Mondavi off of a handshake agreement. Charlie’s Cabernet Sauvignon from Barra of Mendocino in Ukiah Californa is featured in Pioneer, a Cabernet sold exclusively by Standard Market, Bakersfield and the Standard Grill in Illinois. Askawinemaker is a collaboration between Damien Casten, a wine guy who thinks he knows something about filming winemakers, and Sean Berringer, a film editor who thinks he knows a thing or two about drinking wine.
