On the podcast today, the story of a woman who went from finance to fermentation. Terah Bajjalieh studied economic forecasts and number crunching, but instead wound up working in a world of weather forecasts and grape crushing.
She’s a winemaker you need to know — who just debuted two of her wines in select Whole Foods.
Terah graduated with a degree in finance, but a three month wine studies program changed the course of her life. So she followed that unexpected passion for wine and is now one of the most exciting new voices in wine.
She’s gone from being a globetrotting harvest helper to getting a masters degree in Enology and Viticulture and becoming a sommelier as well. Today, she is winning rave reviews for her natural style winemaking and the impressive wine she makes under her Terah Wine Company label.
Terah’s work as a natural winemaker earned her a spot as one of Wine Enthusiast Future 40 Tastemakers in 2024. So pour a glass of wine and join us to hear Terah’ s inspiring story.
Terah’s wines debuted at 35 Whole Foods locations in California! Look for these two wines:
• Terah 2024 Vermentino Skin Contact, Clements Hills, CA
• Terah 2024 Carbonic Sangiovese Chillable Red, Mokelumne River, CA
