FIONA REID
Co-owner
Painted Lady Vineyard
At 70, living in the present moment is really the only choice. Each year, Fiona spends months in the small vineyard, struggling with the vines sometimes – as one struggles with life sometimes – and ultimately enjoying the fruits of her labor, the sweetness of it, the mystery of it, the completeness of it, and the ever-changing nature of it, as one does when noticing and being grateful for life, love, friends and a brother. Acknowledgement for a big slice of the above goes to Jodi Padgett, the other Painted Lady.
