  • #3 Karnail Sidhu on being an outsider in wine, organic practices, listening to the land, and the joy and terror of empowering the next generation
    Apr 5 2021
    This episode we’re joined by Karnail Sidhu, owner and operator of Kalala Organic Estate Winery in Kelowna BC.

Karnail is dedicated to organic practices and draws on his Punjabi farming heritage to spend time listening to the land first. He also strongly empowers his staff and shares the successes and defeats of doing so - and why he won't stop.
