MJ’s guest this week is Lyle Railsback. Lyle is co-founder, with his brother Eric, of Railsback Frères Winery in Santa Ynez, California. Named by Wine Enthusiast as a “Top 40 Under 40 Tastemaker”. Lyle did National Sales for legendary Wine Merchant, Kermit Lynch for twelve years. MJ goes deep with Lyle as they discuss the wine, life lessons and of course great bottles that came from working for such an icon.  There is much to geek out on in this episode including a discussion about “the grapes of the future” Counoise.  A true Renaissance man, Lyle shares his passion for craftsmanship of all kinds, but especially bespoke clothing which has led to a new business venture, creating 1970’s Hollywood inspired cowboy shirts. The freshness is real in this episode. 

A huge thank you to Lyle Railsback!
