In this special Freestyle Friday episode of Wine World TV, Mark interviews Andy Abraham Luxury Brand Manager of Scheid Family Wines. They talk about the history of the winery and taste three wines. First is the 2021 Scheid Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc. Next is the 2017 Metz Road Pinot Noir. Finally they taste the 2020 VDR Very Dark Red. We’d like to thank Frederick’s Restaurant in San Antonio for allowing us the use their private room to do the interview.
