  • Fire Rekindled

    I’ve listened to a lot of wine podcasts over the years but somehow I missed this one for quite a while. I’m not even sure how it came to my attention, but I’m very happy it did. Sometimes you need a “shake-me-up” and this podcast did that for me. I’ve always been passionate about wine ever since I first got into it, but even passions ebb and flow. Amanda’s passion for wine and skills as an interviewer are thoroughly enjoyable, and they led me to binging this podcast over a few weeks. The ev... more

  • So fun and educational too!

    I’ve been binge listening to the Wine Access Unfiltered podcast and have learned so much about wine in such a short amount of time. Amanda makes wine approachable and unpretentious but while still imparting reverence for the art of winemaking and significance of the industry. I am awaiting my first shipment from the Wine Access Unfiltered wine club and can’t wait to taste the wines along with Amanda and her guests and I continue to expand on my newfound passion for wine!

    The comments made about sustainability and glass bottles were beyond ridiculous. Hosts should touch some grass and read a book. They cannot even pronounce “terroir” correctly.

  • The barrier to the world’s best wine isn’t price. It’s access.

    That is the tagline for Wine Access, and every time I listen to an episode, it is over-the-top indulgent, dripping with ostentatious excess. I want to learn about wine. That’s literally why I keep struggling through the episodes. But I can’t help but want to scream every time I hear a “I went here, did this, spent this, ate here, traveled there” along with the “You know x , right?” Weeding through the narrative is someone who works hard to be at the best places, with the most expensive wines, in... more
