There\u2019s also a certain business value to the clout that comes with being an author, appearing on reality television and having graced the pages of both <em>Sports Illustrated\u2019s <\/em>Swimsuit Edition and <em>ESPN The Magazine\u2019s<\/em> Body Issue.<\/p>\n<p>But in 2017, when Coughlin followed her passion to the wine industry, she was very clear that it wouldn\u2019t be just another famous person\u2019s label. The wine would stand for itself, for the hands-on work that she and business partner <strong>Shaina Harding<\/strong> did behind the scenes, for the abiding passion that winemaking has become to the 42-year-old Coughlin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI really try not to rely on my Olympic success and swimming success as too much of a crutch because I don\u2019t want it to come off as a vanity project or just something that I\u2019m slapping my name on,\u201d Coughlin said. \u201cThis is something that means a lot to me, and I put a lot of time and effort into it, so I want it to be as authentic as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gaderianwines.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gaderian Wines<\/a> has become the Olympian\u2019s second career. She and Harding source all their grapes from the Napa Valley, not far from Coughlin\u2019s North Bay hometown of Vallejo. A women-owned business looking to bring different wines to the fore, Coughlin has launched a passion into a brand true to her Northern California roots.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>To learn more about Gaderian Wines, see its offerings or order,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gaderianwines.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">visit here!<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>POPPING THE CORK<\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_602602\" style=\"width: 429px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-602602\" data-attachment-id=\"602602\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/improving-with-age-natalie-coughlin-is-making-her-mark-with-gaderian-wines\/natalie-coughlin-2-5\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-2.jpeg\" data-orig-size=\"960,1280\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.5&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 14&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1708717278&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;5.7&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;640&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.025641025641026&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Natalie Coughlin\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Courtesy: Natalie Coughlin&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-2-700x500.jpeg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-2-768x1024.jpeg\" class=\"wp-image-602602 \" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-2.jpeg\" alt=\"Natalie Coughlin\" width=\"419\" height=\"558\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-2.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-2-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-2-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-2-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-2-450x600.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-2-675x900.jpeg 675w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-2-245x327.jpeg 245w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-2-533x711.jpeg 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 419px) 100vw, 419px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-602602\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Courtesy: Natalie Coughlin<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Coughlin grew up in close-enough proximity to wineries to have an idea of the industry\u2019s contours. Her journey to the vineyard doesn\u2019t involve a eureka moment, but rather a combination of environment and self-discovery.<\/p>\n<p>A regular glass of red wine became a treat in the latter stages of Coughlin\u2019s career, which included consecutive gold medals in the women\u2019s 100 backstroke at the 2004 and 2008 Olympics. It fit her general nutritional ethos, all in moderation, in her rigorous training regimen.<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019d been to wineries with parents and family friends growing up. But upon her retirement at age 32 in 2015, she delved deeper into the multi-faceted business.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I was younger and starting to get into it in my 20s, I would go to places and I was always very curious,\u201d she said. \u201cWhen I would find a place that I really liked and someone pouring who seemed to know what they\u2019re talking about and really interested in educating, I would ask them, \u2018Hey, I\u2019m trying to learn more about wine. Where would you go? Where do you suggest I go next? Which wines do you think I should check out?\u2019 And that\u2019s really how I would educate myself\u2014just by word of mouth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coughlin connected with Harding, a Florida transplant making wines in Napa since 2008, and Gaderian was born in 2017, named for the Old English term meaning \u201cto gather.\u201d Harding brought technical expertise as Coughlin learned the ins-and-outs of viticulture and contributed her acumen on the business side. Both were devoted to the region\u2019s terroir, and in seeking market niches, they focused on a local character to the wines.<\/p>\n<p>Gaderian deals primarily in pinot noir and chenin blanc, with a smaller run of cabernet sauvignon, the grape for which the region is most famous. The brand is connected to the four vineyards from which it sources fruit, a literal connection to the land and its history.<\/p>\n<p>Coughlin is most excited about the Henry Ranch Vineyard, which hosts one of the region\u2019s few sources of chenin blanc. The versatile and resilient grape, more popularly cultivated in the Loire Valley of France and South African wine-growing regions, was once popular in California. But its prevalence waned in the 1970s, as vineyards used acreage on more popular and sellable cabernet grapes, which Henry Ranch also includes. In the 2021 United States Department of Agriculture survey of California grape-growing, chenin blanc accounted for about 4,200 acres, less than 1% of all wine-type grapes grown and about 2.5% of white wine-type grapes. Old-growth plantings like Henry Ranch, which dates back at least 60 years, are even rarer and more treasured.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WHETHER THE WEATHER<\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_602603\" style=\"width: 427px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-602603\" data-attachment-id=\"602603\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/improving-with-age-natalie-coughlin-is-making-her-mark-with-gaderian-wines\/natalie-coughlin-3-3\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-3.jpeg\" data-orig-size=\"960,1280\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.6&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 12 Pro Max&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1660851934&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;5.1&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;250&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.016666666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Natalie Coughlin\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-3-700x500.jpeg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-3-768x1024.jpeg\" class=\"wp-image-602603 \" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-3.jpeg\" alt=\"Natalie Coughlin\" width=\"417\" height=\"556\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-3.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-3-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-3-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-3-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-3-450x600.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-3-675x900.jpeg 675w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-3-245x327.jpeg 245w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Natalie-Coughlin-3-533x711.jpeg 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 417px) 100vw, 417px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-602603\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Courtesy: Natalie Coughlin<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Wine-making suits traits that carry over from Coughlin\u2019s swim career. As a life-long outdoor swimmer before and after her stint in Berkeley at the University of California, she\u2019s always been attuned to conditions and unusually subject to its whims. \u201cYou\u2019re always exposed to the elements, whether it\u2019s the heat of the summer or the cold of winter,\u201d she said. \u201cSo we\u2019re used to that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wine-making has taken that to another level and accentuated Coughlin\u2019s ability to adapt on the fly.<\/p>\n<p>The last four growing seasons have been a test of resilience for the fledgling brand. In 2020, Gaderian\u2019s entire red grape crop was smoke-tainted by massive wildfires in Northern California. Henry Ranch barely survived the blazes, and only after Harding and Coughlin had been told it was destroyed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re just always so nervous about something breaking out,\u201d she said. \u201cSo we\u2019ve very, very in tune with how quickly everything could be destroyed and how important it is to have proper land management and good general practices when it comes to fire prevention.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The fires abated, but the drought that intensified them persisted, leading to fruit shortfalls each of the next two years. Above-average winter precipitation in 2023 led to a bumper crop, with the expected four tons of fruit ending up closer to 6.5 tons. With a little angling for extra capacity, the brand launched a sparkling ros\u00e9 with the extra fruit. Those challenges are likely to only intensify as climate change ramps up. (To that end, chenin blanc is one of the more heat-tolerant grapes with the potential to flourish in a warmer world.)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt just forces you to be really nimble, business-wise,\u201d Coughlin said. \u201cYou have to be ready and willing to pivot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coughlin and Harding have kept Gaderian modest in scale. Of the eight wines produced, none has exceeded 150 cases in production. That puts them squarely in the boutique category, and it allows them to do most of the work by hand with minimal mechanization. It creates wine true to the fruit and to the process that brings it to life.<\/p>\n<p>Gaderian is, Coughlin says, a serious endeavor that the company doesn\u2019t take too seriously. It\u2019s more involved than just a whim that Coughlin would slap her name and face on, but it\u2019s also not so overwrought as some wine brands can become.<\/p>\n<p>The label strikes that balance perfectly. Coughlin and Harding conspired for something elegant, yet just a little silly. They settled on a jackalope, a rabbit with the horns of an antler, simply drawn in ink by an artist friend of Harding\u2019s. It mixes whimsy with uniquely American folklore, a figure that Coughlin calls \u201ca mascot,\u201d but after a few too many cabernets and too quick a glance, you might just mistake for serious.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s hilarious and silly, and I love it, because so much of wine oftentimes can be really pretentious, and people like take it too seriously,\u201d Coughlin said. \u201cIt\u2019s a serious wine, but we don\u2019t take ourselves too seriously.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a formula that Coughlin is keen to keep bottling up.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>To learn more about
