Today we salut the multidimensional medicine of the vine with Barbara Gross of Cooper Mountain Vineyards! Barbara is a visionary in organic, biodynamic, alternative viticulture. As a second generation, natural wine grower and purveyor, our guest has faced countless challenges on a daily and multi-generational scale. Her family has devoted the last 46 years to transform conventional vineyards in Oregon’s Willamette Valley  into thriving, biodiverse, regenerative ecosystems; specializing in the cultivation of Pinot Noir (a varietal of grape most sensitive to environmental stress and the fluctuations of climate change). Through it all, Barbara has emerged as a sort of wildly down to earth, renegade leader in the wine industry. Tune in, pour yourself a glass of healing wine or tea and muse upon this Dionysian thought: could biodynamically farmed and alchemized wine help save our beloved Earth? COVERED Barbara’s legacy of wine stewardship at Cooper Mountain Vineyards Organic + biodynamic certification processes Conscious Land Stewardship The art and science of Pinot Noir, a delicate and climate-sensitive varietal. How natural wines differ from conventional in both taste and their impact on personal & planetary health The role of agriculture in addressing climate change, with insights into carbon-neutral farming How organic, biodynamic vineyards are carbon sinkholes and help sequester up to 30% more carbon than conventional methods The importance of embracing cycles in farming and Life Why a Generational Mindset is needed OFFERING Enjoy 15% off all biodynamic wines + balsamic vinegars from  www.coopermountainwine.com with the code SOUNDFOOD.
