A dedicated winemaker

Michael Blaylock joined Quady as winemaker to manage the sudden growth in winemaking operations inspired by Essensia Orange Muscat and Elysium Black Muscat Dessert Wines. After three decades of winemaking at Quady, he has a lot of award winning sweet wines to smile about. Michael retired in 2017 and now head winemaker Darin Peterson has taken the reins.
