About the Speaker
Eliot Martin & Katie Luczai founded Marzae Wines to build community around quality, sustainable, local wine production in Massachusetts, building on the natural wine movement igniting new interest in underappreciated wine regions. Eliot brings together the best grapes (and other fruit/botanicals) from across the Northeast to craft unique minimum-intervention wines, ciders, co-ferments, and aperitifs that reflect our local terroir. In its third year, Marzae has taken over management of an abandoned vineyard, planted the state's first regeneratively farmed vineyard, and opened a tasting room/restaurant/retail concept at Boston Public Market over the past few months.
