The Leighton Smith Podcast: Michael F. Spratt
After a casual visit to New Zealand, this small American family couldn’t forget it.
Mike and his wife went home, sold up everything and moved here.
It’s a journey of discovery, heartbreak, redemption and triumph.
They were told they were on a fool’s errand; that the standards they set were financially suicidal.
They did it anyway. They planted a vineyard that has beaten the top French wines at their own game.
The story has this week been published, written by the owner himself. “Forged In Fire” catalogues a journey, a discovery, and the pursuit of perfection. It’s a story of ultimate achievement in New Zealand
Michael F Spratt guests on Podcast 343.
P.S. you don’t have to be a wine drinker to appreciate their success. But you may be tempted…
And we visit the Mailroom with Mrs Producer.
