About our Instructor:
Zach Goldman came up in New York City kitchens, working from dishwasher to chef. Looking for more out of life, he sold everything and wandered the US on a motorcycle. He landed in Portland - because it's wonderful - and he likes foraging for Oregon Chanterelle mushrooms. Besides cooking at Cookshop, he teaches private cooking lessons, consults on home kitchen renovations, and works in wineries in the Willamette Valley. He lives in Northeast with his partner, Kayleigh, and their cat, Bren.
About the Winemaker:
Boyd Teegarden started in the wine industry in 1989 after graduating from Kansas State University. He was hired into the top rated Management Training Program for the E & J Gallo Winery and began his career in Denver, Colorado. This renowned industry training program gave him the opportunity to receive in-depth knowledge of both the business and production side of the wine industry. In addition he gained experience working in various markets around the country and exposure to some of the greatest minds in the wine business as well as being certified as a specialist in wine (CSW).
In 1995, Boyd and Cassandra were relocated to Oregon and decided to start building their own dream of a boutique winery in 1999. Natalie’s Estate currently handcrafts 2000 cases a year of small lots of several different varietals from our estate vineyard and various other vineyards throughout the Northwest.
