“I love this podcast, as I absolutely adore hearing the backstories behind any wine I consume, and I love hearing the stories about the vineyards of wine I have yet to consume but go on to add to my wish list. In becoming more interested in the fine details of wine, I find myself voraciously consuming any content that seeks to elucidate the mysteries and history of wine and wine making, but so much of that content tends to be quite dense. So, I find myself having to delve into it slowly, in fairly short sessions in order to continue to enjoy it, rather than feel overwhelmed or burnt out from it all. This podcast, however, presents such rich sources of information in the context of storytelling, and I have found this is by far my favorite way to learn about wine, and I can surprisingly recall quite a great deal more in fine detail compared to reading a wine course book. Although I delight in discovering the information either way, the presentation is much more enjoyable when contextualized with stories told by the people who have lived and worked in the world of wine for several years if not decades. My only gripe is that the episodes for this series are recorded so sporadically, it is a shame that I have already made my way through all of them! By far my most favorite podcast about wine and I recommend it to anyone who expresses even the most superficial interest in the beverage, because I think these episodes draw you in right from the start. Great work!”
