  • Veered off course

    I thought the first episode was promising. I read a positive review in SF Chronicle and thought the show sounded compelling. I was hoping for more geology. By season two they’ve gone to regions where she isn’t as familiar with the geology, then the wine snobs take over. I’m sure I could get more out of it if I listened again but I doubt I’ll have the patience to suffer through it a second time.

  • A real view of Burgundy

    What a fresh view on the makings of a wine. I appreciate your interest and your true geek dive into into wine using your geologic expertise. It’s all about the farmers and their land.

  • An audio documentary!

    If you are thinking of listening, you can jump right in. But I might suggest listening to Levi Dalton interview her on his podcast. Episode #463 of I’ll Drink To That! You will love these two seasons even more.

    As I said, more documentary than a Q&A podcast. Definitely a deep dive for those so inclined. And nicely produced. Thanks. GL
