Vino Video Part Two- A Visit with Four Spring Mountain Winemakers: Stu Smith, Sheldon Richards, Wesley Steffens & Justin Moody

April 4, 2026by Ray FisterNo Comments

Part Two.

In February I sat down with four Spring Mountain Winemakers to talk about their wines and what it takes to operate a mountain winery. Stu Smith/Smith-Madrone, Sheldon Richards/Paloma Vineyard, Wesley Steffens/Vineyard 7 & 8 and Justin Mooday/Aadland-Moody join us at the Vineyard 7 & 8 tasting room. This is a strong group of winemakers growing the best you can taste. I thank them for their time. Thanks also to Vineyard 7 & 8 for hosting. Also thanks to Julie Ann Kodmur for organizing the event.

To learn more, visit Spring Mountain, you’ll be glad you did. Or visit:
