You Can Wine Too by David Sheldon
You Can Wine Too: From Fairy Tales to Nightmares is an engaging memoir chronicling one man’s unconventional journey from the corporate world to vineyard life. The author reflects on a pivotal decision that shaped the next fifty years of his life, transitioning from running a plastics business to cultivating vineyards, launching a winery, and managing a small farm raising Red Angus cattle. Through candid storytelling, he recounts the highs and lows of navigating an unpredictable, consumer-driven industry — some obstacles self-inflicted, others unavoidable. Along the way, he shares personal lessons, business insights, and hard-earned wisdom from decades of entrepreneurship and reinvention. More than just a business memoir, it’s a reflection on resilience, risk-taking, and the pursuit of a life well-lived. Through challenges, failures, and small victories, one constant remains: ending each day with a raised glass, savoring both the struggles and the successes that come with chasing one’s passions.
