Marshall's Wine Encore

I'm living my encore life growing vines, creating, and learning about wine. I relate my experiences as a hobbyist, conveying information in everyday terms, with a distinct Colorado bent. Find my experiences at www.wineencore.com. Early in my adult life, I worked in the wine industry before pursuing other careers. I began making wine in 2008, after being inspired by a dear friend with a winery in the Carneros AVA. After 10 years of sourcing grapes from CA and Colorado, I yearned to have a "farm-to-table" operation. With the wonderful support of my spouse, we purchased a property in the West Elks AVA, located in the North Fork Valley in western Colorado.
