How American Wine Project is reframing Wisconsin wine

Wisconsin is rarely acknowledged when it comes to serious discussions about wine and wine-making. But all of that is changing thanks to the work of folks including Erin Rasmussen, winemaker and founder of American Wine Project. This week, we’re sitting down with Rasmussen to discuss her journey to the wine world and the impetus for her return to Wisconsin to explore the subtleties of cold-climate winemaking. Along the way we chat about the history of winemaking in the U.S., the challenges Rasmussen faces as she strives to create remarkable wine made with Wisconsin-grown grapes and the innovation that’s changing the way folks view winter hardy grapes and their often unique flavor profiles.
