I recently got to do a private wine tour during my vacation in Canada. It was a great surprise to find out this idea has just started up in Frederick. Not only has it started up, but they are tripling down! In true Frederick spirit, Paul and Andrea are offering beer, wine, and distillery tours.
I had a ton of fun with this interview. We talk about how Paul and Andrea came up with the idea, their passion for a pure experience, and their plans for the future. There is also a lot of laughs.
