Episode Synopsis

Looking back, what did you do all day during the weeks of the Covid19 lockdown? …Watched Netflix all day? …Organized dinner Parties via Zoom or Skype? …Produced some photo albums on line…or did you cook, eat and cook some more? Good fun!  But, perhaps you picked up some literature, a good book to read, to take you away from a frustrating lock-up-reality into another world?! I certainly did and one of the most wonderful books I read in a long time was: Perfectly Paired: The Love Affair Behind Silver Oak Cellars BY Bonny Meyer.

The reason why I felt like inviting Bonny on my show to talk about her book? Because, apart from being thoroughly touched by it, for me it was what I would call an ‘ALL IN ONE-BOOK’…. It is a memoir, a love story, a family saga, but also a non-fiction instruction for building and scaling a GOOD AND SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS together with your soul mate. Bonny’s book takes you through a plethora of emotions, makes you shed a tear one moment, and makes you laugh out loud the next. It is intimate, loving and mentoring in a genuine and generous way.

Bonny started Silver Oaks Vineries with her late husband Justin, when California’s Napa Valley had not yet reached its fame of producing world renounced wines. Silver Oaks focused on Cabernets Sauvignon and made it to what it is today…the KING OF NAPA VALLEY RED WINES. After selling the business in 2001 Bonny transitioned to become a successful investor. She’s the Principle of Meyer Family Enterprises dedicated to socially responsible investments, and in such supports businesses that help to ‘solve the world’s problems.

Her Key learnings: Know that whatever choice we make, has consequences. Choices should always be made with the intention to be as beneficial to others as possible.
