Buddy Buddy

A gift of organic pears during the 2020 fire season nudged Buddy Buddy from a wine project into something harder to categorize, a small Berkeley label that blurs the line between wine and cider.

Cassidy Miller connected with Jason Edward Jones at Berkeley's Vinca Minor in 2019 and launched Buddy Buddy that same year. When a Mendocino grower handed over organic pears in 2020, the extra time and space in the winery turned into an exploration of cider, and co-ferments became the project's signature.

More on how they farm and work in the cellar in our Buddy Buddy producer profile.
