Matty Colston: Oral History Interview

The Oregon Wine History Archive Podcast

This interview is with Matty Colston of Colston Biblio. In this interview, Matty speaks about his wine journey, from growing up in Ohio to opening his own bar in Kentucky to eventually moving to Chicago and working in a variety of restaurants there. He talks about learning wine along the way and finding kindred spirits among the wine community.

From there, he talks about taking a chance on himself and coming to Oregon to work a harvest. That helped launch his brand, and he talks about the growth and challenges since then.

This interview was conducted by Rich Schmidt on July 22 in Portland.
