The Wine Pro & The Wino is hosted by Brielle Buckler and Michelle Matos, a duo of wine enthusiasts who are on completely opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to wine knowledge. Brielle, our Wine Pro, is a wine educator who's quick with a wine pun and loves a big ol' glass of White Pinot Noir (yes, that's a thing!) Michelle, the Wino, is your everyday wine lover who knows the difference between red & white wine ;) , and can't wait to open up a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon after a long day. Together, this perfect pair gets down to the basics as they discuss topics like wine tasting, pairings, drinking and more! Come say Chardonn-hey! and join us on this journey!
Does ALL wine get better with age? This week we talk about what wines age well and which wines you should probably drink sooner rather than later. Brielle discusses the wine-making process and what goes into wines that age well and ones that don't. For all you winos out there, this is a good episode to figure out which wines should stay on your shelves and which should be opened up for dinner tonight!If you enjoyed this episode, please leave us a 5 star review.

How do wine pairings work? Well, this week's episode gets really interesting (and quite entertaining!) as we discuss wine pairings and experiments. Brielle guides Michelle through a diverse and random pairing to learn how different flavors and textures interact with wine. Want to sip along? Michelle was drinking a Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon and pairings included: crackers, tortilla chips, chocolate chips, grapes, sour candies, cheddar cheese, laughing cow cheese and tabasco sauce.

Does wine taste different between bottles, cans and boxes? In this week's episode, we prove that wine is good, no matter the medium you drink it in! From bottles to cans to boxes of wine, we drink ‘em all! As many of you know, Brielle is a canned-wine lover and has learned that not only is canned wine delicious, but also eco-friendly! We chat about our side-by-side-by-side tasting of Bridge Lane's White Merlot in a bottle, a can and a box and discuss the differences (or lack thereof) of the three.

We'll answer questions like, “What kind of wine should I serve at my wedding?” “How much should I serve?” And more!
