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\u2019s Willamette Valley&amp;nbsp; 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:&amp;nbsp;could biodynamically farmed and alchemized wine help save our beloved Earth?
