It’s Monday, Let’s raise a glass to the beginning of another week. It’s time to unscrew, uncork or saber a bottle and let’s begin Exploring the Wine Glass! Today, I am sitting down with Julie Kuhlken of Pedernales Winery in Texas. Julie was so helpful in helping me understand the Texan AVAs for my recent article in SommTV.

Join me as we discuss the differing conditions within a single AVA, the trials and tribulations of producing wine in Texas and why Texan wine should be on your radar. Plus, we talk through the tasting of Touriga Nacional!

Diving Deep Into Galicia
Monday Aug 08, 2022
Monday Aug 08, 2022
It’s Monday, Let’s raise a glass to the beginning of another week. It’s time to unscrew, uncork or saber a bottle and let’s begin Exploring the Wine Glass! Today, I am doing something very different than normal. The podcast will be all me! I am in the process of studying for my Spanish Wine Scholar Certification and I thought it would be beneficial to do a podcast on Galicia. This would require me to dive deep into the autonomous region and hopefully get the details drilled into my brain.
If you also read my blog or follow me on social media, you know how much I adore Albarino and Rias Baixas. It is truly a dream to be able to visit the region one day and sip Albarino along the Mino and Sil rivers. For this episode, I give a brief introduction into the other DOs located in Galicia, but dive a bit deeper into Rias Baixas.
If you enjoy Exploring the Wine Glass, I’d appreciate you giving me some love by taking two minutes out of your day to write up a review on whatever app you listen on. It is the best way to support the show.

Delaware Grape on Winephabet Street

Monday Aug 01, 2022
It’s Monday, Let’s raise a glass to the beginning of another week. It’s time to unscrew, uncork or saber a bottle and let’s begin Exploring the Wine Glass! Today, we return to Winephabet Street where the letter of the day is D and we are learning about the grape variety, Delaware.
Have you ever heard of Delaware? I had not, and that is one of the reasons why I love working on this series. We had special guest Abby Stamp, assistant winemaker for Lakewood Vineyards in the Finger Lakes. We discuss her namesake wine Abby Rose, which of course, has Delaware in its blend.

Life Between the Vines with Ray Fister

Monday Jul 25, 2022
It’s Monday, Let’s raise a glass to the beginning of another week. It’s time to unscrew, uncork or saber a bottle and let’s begin Exploring the Wine Glass! Today, I sit down with Ray Fister, the mastermind behind Life Between the Vines Podcast.
Earlier in June, I had the privilege of attending a press trip to Abruzzo, Italy. During the trips, it seems that you always make a stronger connection with one or two people and Ray and I met early on and honestly had a blast everytime we got together. Then we were lucky enough to be on the same flight home, which helped to make the 11 hour flight fly right by!
