Allie It seems that life exists at a series of moments as does wineSo lets talk about you and wine in terms of momentsAt what moment in your life did you realize you wanted to make wine

Bill My head was in a large redwood wine tank at Italian Swiss Colony in California I had stuck it in there in youthful exuberance to take in the aromas I was 8

Bill My late wife Judith and I had just taken possession on our little vineyardIt was our first overnight sleeping on the floor here By candle light we toasted with a bottle of Champagneand when the bottle was empty I tossed in into the vineyard where it remains

Allie What is one of your most memorable moments with a bottle of wine

Bill As I gather dinner ingredients together the bottle of wine comes to the counter top with themI open pour a glass and begin prep

Allie At what moment of the day are you ready to open a bottle of wine and enjoy a glass

Bill In the vineyard when a double rainbow appeared as we finished planting ViognierIn the tasting room when a guest is at the counter with radiant eyes and a compelling smile

Allie What is one of your favorite moments in the vineyard In the tasting room

Bill Make me a 10 year old Syrah The cork is going to be hard to pullThe wine is deep reserved flavorful and complex

Allie Imagine for a moment that you were not a person but a wine instead Can you describe that wine

It was an honor and a pleasure to feature Bill Frick in this issueHe is a man and a winemaker of incredible passion

It is his passion for wine that fueled my ownIt was in Billrsquos Garibaldi Vineyard that My Wine Words began

Please join me in raising a glass to Billand to the callings he encourages other to fulfill

ldquoAre we there yet Papa Smurfrdquo

From one side to the other we trekked 21 miles in a single day

ZION NATIONAL PARK Hat TrickIn a hat trick of hikes (Angelrsquos Landing Virgin River amp Emerald Pools) we made our way in Merrells on three treks and gave ourselves a namesake reward with the Ridge 2009 Three Valleys - a blend of Zinfandel Petite Sirah Carignane Grenache and Mataro

Just 1488 feet down No big deal

You see that ridge behind us Yep Wersquore climbed that

Against the current with heavy gear amp in a Star Trek looking wetsuit I need a drink
