Engineering Meets Oenology: How Antonio Arias is Showcasing The Finger Lakes Finest at ONCE

Beats Vines and Life

Welcome back to another inspiring episode of Beats Vines & Life. Today, our host MJ Towler sits down with Antonio Arias, a chemical-engineer-turned-wine-entrepreneur who has made his mark in the Finger Lakes wine region.

Antonio shares his journey from growing up in a family of engineers in Mexico to discovering his passion for wine in Australia, and eventually founding Once, a unique wine tasting bar and shop in the heart of the Finger Lakes.

He discusses his vision for creating an inclusive and educational wine experience, the innovative spirit of the Finger Lakes wine making community, and the challenges and rewards of transitioning from a technical to a business-focused career.

Join us as we explore Antonio's philosophy on wine, the beauty of the Finger Lakes, and his aspirations to influence the region's evolving identity.

Cheers to all the mavericks, thinkers, and wine drinkers out there—this episode is for you!
