And a Bugey Bubbly New Year | S12E1
Listen now
Description
Bugey-Cerdon is tucked away in a sub-alpine region of France between Jura and Savoie. We explore the wine, the region, and, of course, a tiny bit of history. This is a bubbly we should really give more props to, or just find more reasons to celebrate more stuff … so we can drink more bubbly and more kinds of it.
