For our New Year's Eve eve episode, Schooled Radio talks with winemaker Larry Schaffer of Tercero Wines about teaching people (and their palates) how to "appreciate" wine (and what does that really mean); how he has adapted tastings during COVID; his own journey as a winemaker; and how his role has expanded to include educating community leaders about the importance of wine in Santa Barbara County.
