. This episode features an on-site wine tasting conversation with Gary, Linda, and Stephanie Brauns of Restoration Vineyards in Palisade, the heart of Colorado’s Wine Country.

This family-owned vineyard and winery is located at East Orchard Mesa, above the Colorado River. The 10-acre property is surrounded by peach and cherry orchards with breathtaking views of the Grand Mesa and Bookcliff mountains. Their wines are made exclusively from grapes grown in their vineyard. They have 6 varieties planted – Barbera, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon. The name restoration was inspired by their passion for restoration projects – from homes to cars (vintage Mercedes Benz) to vineyards. https://restorationvineyards.com/
