I’ve spent the past 20 years exploring plant medicine traditions—from Peru to Sebastopol.

But it wasn’t until I looked to my own backyard that I rediscovered the most ancient entheogen of them all: wine.

This isn’t about indulgence. It’s about reverence. And the potential for wine to serve as a spiritual tool when approached with intention.

I invite you to read my new essay:

The Forgotten Entheogen — Can Wine Be a Sacred Medicine Again?

Move over ayahuasca & pe**te. Sonoma vinter Ross Halleck creates sacred ceremony around wine, humanity's first entheogen.

Remember when slurping, sniffing loudly, and playing with your food were considered bad manners? It turns out that some of those habits are exactly what you need to taste wine like a pro.

Why? To fully explore wine’s aromas and flavors, you need to engage all your senses — even if it feels a bit awkward at first. The sounds and actions that might seem impolite are part of the process to unlock the wine’s complexity and depth.

In this video, Halleck Vineyard vintner Ross Halleck walks you through the techniques step-by-step, including why aerating the wine in your mouth, smelling deeply, and even taking a second sip are crucial to tasting.

Watch and refine your wine tasting skills.

The Farm Vineyard 🍷
Pinot Noir 2019
Wins Best of Class🏆

We are nearly sold out of this vintage! Purchase this fantastic wine before it is gone. Available to Inner Circle Members Only.

Rich cherry and beading pomegranate are garnished with a touch of orange zest on the nose. The initial red fruit notes are nicely balanced by freshly-tilled earth, mace, and crackling leaves. The wine opens in the mouth with cherry compote, dried earth, bracing baking spice, and orange pekoe tea. The tea-like tannins cleanse the tongue and extend the finish for minutes--if one can wait that long before taking another sip.
