Dave Phillips of Michael-David Winery is passionate about producing quality wine at every price point

Dave Phillips grew up on the family homestead in Lodi, California. His great great grandparents settled there in 1865. His youth was spent driving tractors in the vineyards and growing fruit and vegetables to sell at the family’s roadside fruit stands and local farmers markets. Today, he and his brother, Michael, have created some of the most iconic brands in the wine industry, including Seven Deadly Zins (which they subsequently sold), Earthquake, Freakshow and Outerbound—their latest project. He is passionate about sustainability and his community. Dave and his wife, Corene, have two boys, and travel the world together marketing their winery and extolling the virtues of Lodi fruit. His passions include ultra running, mountain biking, triathlons and skiing. I invite you to drink in this entertaining episode with the very down-to-earth—and good friend—Dave Phillips.
