Season 8 - Episode 4 - Method Oregon

Bubbles, Bravery & the Birth of Method Oregon – with Andy Lytle & Andrew Davis

In this sparkling new episode of Wine Crush Podcast, host Heidi Moore is joined by two titans of Oregon bubbles—Andy Lytle of Lytle-Barnett and acclaimed winemaker Andrew Davis, founder of Radiant Sparkling Company. Together, they uncork the rich backstory of Oregon’s traditional method sparkling wine movement, share the hilarious (and sometimes chaotic) journey of launching Lytle-Barnett, and reveal the vision behind the brand-new Method Oregon celebration happening this July.

We dive deep into:

• The serendipitous origins of Lytle-Barnett
• Andrew’s role in opening the sparkling door for over 90 producers in Oregon
• The rising international attention on Oregon’s high-end bubbles
• Why Method Oregon is more than an event—it’s a movement
• And yes… sparkling wine can pair perfectly with popcorn, fried chicken, or brunch eggs benedict 🥂

This episode is equal parts education, inspiration, and good old Oregon winemaker mischief.
