  • How About a Brief Intro?

    I really enjoy your podcast and try to listen to all episodes. I have hope to learn something new when I listen. I have visited RRV many times.

    Just listened to the Steen episode, and you never mentioned the name Steen is another name for Chenin? How about a brief introduction for each episode. Name of winery, guest’s name, guest’s background, winery location, their winery name background if applicable, wines / grapes they’re known for, etc. Then go into the tasting and chatting. Thanks and che... more

  • A Podcast Well Worth Your Time!

    I love all things wine and the Wine Road Podcasts are no exception! These Sonoma County podcasts never fail to fascinate and entertain me. I find myself salivating over the descriptions of bottles opened and featured in a show. As a result of listening to the many podcasts, my husband and I have been inspired to visit many of the wineries showcased in the podcasts. This is a podcast well worth your time!

  • Lovin me some Wine Road!

    This podcast has everything! Not only informative but entertaining! As I listen to Beth and Marcy it feels like being on a patio with two great friends chatting about all things wine over a glass (or bottle) of our favorite wine. Highlights for me are hearing from the wine makers and vineyard owners about their offerings, learning about new “wine items” and books and being current on all things Wine/Wine Country! These ladies seem to ask all the questions that come to mind and help provide the a... more
