What happens when you quit your job as a corporate tax attorney to open a winery? Find out this week when Kat and Honi talk to Dave Specter, owner of Bells Up Winery. After several years of making wine in his Cincinnati basement—and upon the insistence of his wife Sara—Bells Up winemaker and owner Dave left a successful and lucrative career as a corporate tax attorney (that made him stressed, sick and miserable) to learn how to make wine as a pro. Also on his resume, 20+ years as a French Horn player, an MBA, a certificate in enology from Washington State University, and a masochistic passion for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (GO TOM-PA BAY! FIRE THOSE CANNONS!). At Bells Up, Dave manages all winemaking activities, vineyard maintenance and development, and tractor driving. He loves nothing more than to share his wines in private tasting experiences with Bells Up guests.
If you find yourself in the Willamette Valley, do yourself a favor and visit Bells Up Winery (also check them out on Instagram). You won't regret it.
