The experimentalist: Channing Daughters, Bridgehampton, NY
Christopher Tracy did not start out wanting to make wine, but when he did, Channing Daughters was certainly the right place to do it. Like founder Walter Channing and partner and CEO Larry Perrine, Tracy has a restless mind that has led him to succeed in diverse fields—first in the theater, then as a chef with a grand diplôme from the French Culinary Institute in New York. And since 2001, as a winemaker.
