Welcome to a very special edition of the LIFE WORKS podcast. We went on location to talk with wine mogul, Chris Pearmund at Pearmund Cellars Winery in Broad Run, Virginia.
Chris Pearmund – from as early as 7 years old, Chris always had an eye for seeing opportunities and solutions wherever he was. In his first business he turned an avocado tree in his back yard into a thriving enterprise – and that was just the start, he’s come a long way since that first Avocado tree. Today, he owns, manages, and consults with wineries across the country. In fact, he helped start nearly 20 wineries in Virginia alone. His headquarters is Pearmund Cellars, in Broad Run, VA, where we went on location to meet this incredible man.
If you thought you knew wine, life, or business – think again, because when your with one of the country’s leading wine masters there is so much more to learn — and Chris is just the man to teach us how to drink wine. Even if you don’t drink, don’t miss this incredibly fun and informative episode where we get into wine, life, business, and what it takes to be wildly successful.
