    They talk about aromas being “inclusive “

    It is sad and ridiculous

  • Usually love it but . .

    The episode with Dave Rodman was so hard to listen to. Call me Gen X, but his use of "like" as a filler was so distracting and outwayed any useful takeaways.

  • Not well done

    I’ve tried over and over to listen without a bad attitude. Unfortunately, it just isn’t well done from the host to producing. I love wine and have for decades. This just isn’t interesting. It sounds like a forced conversation about minutiae. It’s a fail for me.

  • Engaging conversations

    This podcast has been really interesting lately. I really like the conversations. Wine can so boring and pretentious but these conversations are not. I’m into it!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 215: Moscato d'Asti Is the Moment
Q: How does Moscato dell'Asti pair with foods beyond dessert, and what are some surprising matches?
The guest highlights oysters as a surprisingly fitting pairing and notes that the wine's sweetness is balanced by acidity, allowing it to complement spicy, hot, and savory dishes beyond traditional desserts.
Episode 215: Moscato d'Asti Is the Moment
Q: Is Moscato dell'Asti more than just a sweet wine?
Giacomo explains that Moscato dell'Asti is balanced by vibrant acidity and light sparkling, making it more versatile than a typical sweet wine and able to pair with a wide range of foods.
Episode 214: Is Oregon the Champagne of America?
Q: What makes Oregon sparkling wines distinct from Champagne or Prosecco?
Oregon offers traditional method sparkling wines with high acidity and terroir-driven profiles, often using a broader range of grape varieties, and a climate that supports brisk acidity and nuanced mineral characteristics, while also providing more accessible price points and a different flavor spectrum compared to Champagne or Prosecco.
Episode 212: After 10 Grammy Wins, Norah Jones' Pivot to Wine Is Hitting the Right Notes
Q: How did wine become part of your professional world beyond enjoying it casually?
I was approached by Maison Wessman to collaborate, tried the rosé, and found the project enjoyable enough to deepen the relationship and eventually become involved in the vineyard and selection process.
Episode 211: Everyone in Hollywood Has a Spirit Brand—But Are They Making Any Money?
Q: What makes celebrity brands attractive to investors and big beverage companies?
Celebrity brands offer the potential for accelerated growth through strong distribution, high visibility, and the ability to scale quickly when the product resonates with consumers; the key is a compelling backstory, a liquid with broad appeal, and smart packaging, all timed to maximize momentum.
