from Michael Russo of the Star Tribune,
For 15 years, Bure has been a collector of wine. He has traveled France and Tuscany, and on a visit to Napa, met Josh Peeples, who has his own wine label—Jacquelynn.
Peeples took Bure under his wing. In came famed winemaker Luc Morlet, and today, Bure has his own label, Bure Family Wines, which is produced at Chateau Boswell in St. Helena, Calif.
Last Sunday, I joined Wild TV announcers Dan Terhaar and Mike Greenlay on a tour of the cave and cellars. We saw the sorting of the grapes, the beginning stages of fermentation and the barreling, where wine will sit in 59-gallon white oak barrels for 15 to 20 months.
