Episode 208: Super Bowl Champion Will Blackmon Proves That Wine and Football Belong Together

Wine and football have been on the same team for some time now, with notable players like Charles Woodson, Drew Bledsoe, and Dan Marino stepping into the world. Joining that lineup is Will Blackmon, former Super Bowl champion, 12-year NFL veteran, and founder of Blackmon Cellars and The Wine MVP. Will approached wine the same way he approached football: with total commitment.

Now, Will remains deeply focused on education—continuing to learn himself while sharing that knowledge with aspiring enthusiasts.
