Podcast #414-Evyn Cameron, Winemaker Crocker & Starr, Napa Valley

December 14, 2020 by Ray Fister No Comments

It’s interesting to point out that our last three podcasts have featured women winemakers. The wine industry has been dominated by men but for the last couple decades, women have come to the front to be recognized as some of the very best in the field. Evyn Cameron is the Winemaker at Crocker & Starr in Napa Valley and in fact she succeeded the accomplished winemaker/co-owner Pam Starr. We spent a bit of time on the phone catching up with Evyn last week. In the end, it’s all about the wine. And in the end, Evyn puts her experience and heart into every bottle.

You can hear Evyn on our Vino Lingo segment defining the term “Sticky”
