This week, Dustin Moilanen, co-founder and director of winemaking at ACTA, takes us behind the scenes of their unique winemaking process. The episode sheds light on the philosophy behind the name ACTA Non Verba, shortened to ACTA, which translates to ‘Deeds Not Words,’ aptly representing the brand’s ethos. Dustin introduces listeners to ACTA’s signature red blend, Deeds – a crafted blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, and occasionally, Malbec, which Dustin describes as a gateway to their Cabernets.
We round out the episode talking about ACTA’s commitment to community – showcased through their involvement in local events, all aimed at delivering an authentic and enjoyable wine experience for their guests.
