In this episode of the Vint Podcast, Brady and Billy are joined by Ken Freeman , owner of Freeman Winery and BNY Mellon senior strategist, aka the perfect combination of finance and wine. We discuss how he and Akiko acquired a Sonoma vineyard and winery for a steal and were immediately profitable (unheard of in the wine space), Sonoma Coast wines, and his work with regional viticultural organizations. We also cover his work outside of the winery, where Ken is at BNY Mellon and works with estates throughout Napa and Sonoma to manage the sale and acquisition of high-profile vineyards and wine brands.

Cheers!
