In this episode of The Good Stuff presented by the Sonoma County Winegrowers, hosts Virginie Boone and Karissa Kruse talk with Erik Miller, Founder/Owner/Winemaker of Kokomo & Breaking Bread Winery.
Erik Miller is the founder and winemaker of Kokomo Winery, located in Sonoma County's Dry Creek Valley. Originally from Indiana, Miller attended Purdue University, where he earned a degree in business. After briefly working in financial planning, he realized the career lacked the excitement he sought. His long-time passion for wine and the culinary world led him to pursue a career in winemaking.
Kokomo is perched in Dry Creek Valley in Healdsburg, amidst the 12 acres of prime benchland vineyards of Timber Crest Farms. Erik started the winery in 2004, naming it after his hometown of Kokomo, IN, and decided on a Coastal Cypress Tree as a logo to signify his move out west. Kokomo currently produces over a dozen different varietals and several single vineyards designates which are farmed by his partner in the winery, grower Randy Peters. Kokomo Winery focuses their terrior-driven wines on the three distinctive appellations of Sonoma County - Russian River, Dry Creek & Alexander Valleys. Kokomo Winery has been making its mark in Sonoma County, unfailingly earning 90+ ratings, Best of Class and Gold Medals across all varietals.
Erik would then go onto establish Breaking Bread Winery in 2018 as a creative outlet fueled by his passion for simple, natural and enjoyable wines. The winery is dedicated to crafting natural wines through sustainable and organic farming practices, employing whole-cluster fermentation and utilizing native yeasts and bacteria.
And finally, Virginie and Karissa share their Tuesday Night wine picks!

In 1923, the French American Bakery was built at 421 West Avenue (now Healdsburg Avenue) next door to the current Costeaux French Bakery site. The bakery building was built and owned by S. Botero who leased the space to Otavia and Ricardo Cassaza and their partner and brother-in-law Joe Tignoli, soon after their arrival from Italy in August. Bread was baked and sold on a limited day-of-the-week basis.
Fast forward to 2006, William Seppi takes over day-to-day operations as General Manager and the business expands operations by establishing a separate 6,500 square foot baking facility to accommodate the increased demand.
The bakery wins top accolades at the Harvest Fair taking home the Best of Show for both Professional French and Specialty breads, in addition to being showered with Gold Medals in other bread categories.
