In today’s episode, Carol talks with Peter Ficklin, 3rd generation proprietor of Ficklin Vineyards, a California port producer founded in Madera County in 1948. Carol and Peter discuss keys for a successful family transition (allow creativity, talk frequently, listen, and learn), how port is made, and the history of the brand’s sales channels. They also discuss the wide world of Ficklin’s wines, from a ’57 Vintage Port made by Peter’s father available for sale at $600 per bottle, to Rose port aged 6 months in stainless steel for $30, and everything in between.
