The Field Blend Project - Enology with Abbey Chrystal
On this week’s episode of The Field Blend Project we sit down with Abbey Chrystal and discuss the day-to-day life of an enologist. We discuss the kinds of analyses we perform as well as what those tests can and cannot tell us. In addition, we also discuss how you can transition from a traditionally lab based scientific background into the cellar.
I met Abbey in 2013 when I was tasting around the Santa Cruz Mountains (SCM) and she helped me find my first job in the SCM. Abbey uses her graduate level scientific background to create a critical niche for herself in the Santa Cruz Mountains and as a consequence is a staple for the SCM wine industry.
If you've ever wondered that we do every day, what our life looks like as a cycle of the year, and what the assays that we perform in the lab actually do, this will be a wonderful episode for you!
We hope hope you enjoy this episode and have a great week!
