A day late for this to be a "November" episode but play along? Elle has had SO much wine activity, from the RAW wine fair to Sicilian dinners to the event in homage to Gran Moraine where Elle both sourced this FABULOUS blanc de blancs from Oregon and met today's guest, Andrea Jaramillo, aka Mas Vino Please. Oohhh! And also there is a revival of On the Food Side where Elle weighs in on butter boards. Never not hard journalism-ing. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This interview is with Shane Moore of Gran Moraine. In this interview, Shane talks about how he got into wine, his various work experiences, travels, and what led him to Oregon. He speaks about his role at Jackson Family, his impressions of the Oregon wine industry, and what it was like developing Gran Moraine. Towards the end of the interview, Shane touches on changes he's seen to the industry, how he is currently adapting to the pandemic, and what he sees for the future for himself and the industry.

As a part of a larger campaign to promote the variety Chardonnay (Chardonnay [R]evolution) this podcast is part of a series of episodes that give inside knowledge about Chardonnay from wine category experts and winemakers. Shane Moore speaks with wine writer, Shana Clarke, about the nuances of Chardonnay, specifically in Oregon.

The Yamhill-Carlton AVA, in the far northern reaches of Willamette Valley, was founded in 2004. Often known for producing pinot noir bottlings that are bold and expressive some wine makers look in another direction and create wines of great finesse. Shane Moore of Gran Moraine is one such wine maker. Not only is he making sophisticated pinto noir, but also an exceptionally balanced chardonnay.

"Best Actor" nominees Denzel Washington and Daniel Day Lewis take center stage as the Cogill’s discuss great performances in flawed films like, “Roman J. Israel, Esq.,” and “Phantom Thread." And, what is your idea a good Valentines Day movie? The Cogill’s offer some surprising, unusual choices. Wine expert, Hayley Hamilton Cogill, pairs “The Prisoner” and it’s counterpart, “The Blindfold” with our top two films and for Valentines Day it’s all about the bubbly, including some new sparklers from Dianna Novy Lee and Gran Moraine.

Shane has been making wine all over the world: Washington State, Osoyoos of Canada, Margaret River Australia, Golan Heights Israel, and Sonoma California. In 2013, he moved to Oregon to head up the winemaking of the newly purchased Jackson Family Estates properties of Gran Moraine in the Yamhill-Carlton and Zena Crown Vineyard in the Eola Amity hills. Working in complete synergy with his vineyard manager, Ken Kupperman, Shane is seeking to produce world class wines from Pinot Noir and with a growing interest to Chardonnay. Tune in to hear an amazing break down of the Willamette Valley, and why it is indeed a special place, as well as all the daring techniques Shane's using to produce truly exceptional wines!
