She's doing it all, folks! When Meg Rulli says she's the woman behind Flipturn Cellars - she means it. There's no one else really. Meg is seeking out cool, interesting varietals, picking up the grapes, making the wine, and doing everything from that point to put wine in the bottle, not to mention market it, distribute it, etc. We're exhausted just thinking about it.
Meg says studying abroad in Barcelona in college really opened her eyes to the world of wine and when she and her husband left their corporate jobs to travel for a year, she knew it was something she wanted to, at least, pursue. When they set up camp in Portland, Oregon - being near the Willamette Valley solidified those plans.
Meg says she's intentionally independent and small and as of right now, has no plans to get any bigger. She likes the freedom to be able to "chase inspiration," and enjoys being the one to make the decisions - the good, the bad and the ugly. She and Trish talk about the grit it takes when you're slinging your passion... and what's on the horizon for Flipturn Cellars.

Nori De Vega on growing up in 2 different cities, supporting local restaurants, and Oregon water
It's a heartfelt conversation between what seems like a couple of old pals : Trish interviews Nori De Vega - food blogger, independent restaurant advocate, and co-founder of "Tikim". "Tikim," which means "to taste" in Tagalog, is a concept inspired by Nori and two great pals to further the Filipino-American narrative by sharing their experiences - mostly with food.
Nori talks about growing up in two VERY different cities worlds apart and how that shaped her and her tastes. She started what's now her incredibly popular food blog ( @NomNom_Nori ) during the pandemic as a way to support some of her favorite people and friends in the struggling Portland, Oregon food scene. That act of love and advocacy turned into something bigger than she imagined. Cook up a bowl of something delicious (maybe some noods), pour some bubbles, and enjoy this fun, heartfelt, and warm conversation.
