IWP Ep74 Pietro Buttitta - Prima Materia
Episode description
Today I’m talking with Pietro Buttitta from Prima Materia and Local Vines. After a career in food service Pietro has spent the last decade or so farming in Lake County at about 1400 feet elevation, focusing mostly on Italian varieties. He has also done some consulting and so we also discuss his fun new project in the Lamorinada area of Contra Costa County. The Lamorinda is a fascinating area, that I've always thought had lots of potential and it’s so close to Oakland with steep, interesting hillsides and valleys. You can find Pietro's wines at www.prima-materia.com/ and the new tasting room and project at www.local-vines.com follow him on instagram at prima_materia_wine. Be on the lookout for the Local Vines tasting room in Lafayette opening soon as well.
