In this episode, we meet 5th generation wine maker Rachel Lipman who currently manages most aspects of the operations for her family vineyard in Mt. Airy, MD, started by her grandfather Bill Loew who is a Holocaust survivor.  Prior to WWII, her family had established the first national meadery and beeswax production in Poland and Rachel has been able to dig up fascinating old documents corroborating the business' success and reach before the Nazis and Russians occupied the area.  Rachel was kind enough to host 3GDC for a wine tasting event at Loew Vineyards in October, 2021 and share some of her family story then.  We encourage you to visit the winery and meet Rachel after listening to this episode!
