Podcast by Wine Is Grape
In this excited episode, Caitlin and Oscar go to the elusive land of Tribeca to taste lots of riesling at Terroir Tribeca. The menus here are huge and the people are super friendly. Why are people obsessed with acidity and residual sugar? What is the Summer of Riesling? What are Caitlin and Oscar like when face to face with a wine world celebrity? What are the four primary grapes of Madeira? These are questions you should actually know the answers to, so listen to this episode!! PS There are doggo noises in this episode. Heckin' deal with it, jeez.
This week, Caitlin and Oscar explore bibi (yes, all lowercase), a wine bar that they already know they love. It was the mid-term election and things were tense, but not tense enough to now post blue wave emojis and drink wine. What do kale brussels sprout salads look like? You won't know unless you listen. Also, are cheese bars the only places that do amazing cheese pairings? (Spoilers, no!) Why do people trash on white wine? What is s'mores in a jar? Dude, listen to this podcast.
In this episode things get spoopy. Caitlin and Oscar celebrate Halloween by going to Pinkerton Wine Bar with their friends Christine and Tim. Two clowns, a monkey, and a bee walk into a bar...listen to the podcast to find out what happens. Does Cote de Rhone always enter the slam jam? What Spanish wine are the "wine is grape" team trying for the first time? Are all New York grilled cheese sandwiches super fancy? Where does Caitlin stand on Cava? Who are the mysterious people in the paintings? Listen to maybe find out or just be more spooked.
In this very French episode, Caitlin and Oscar talk very derpily about Vin Sur Vingt, the French wine bar with five locations in New York. These is easily our most French episode yet, so get excited to talk about regions instead of varietals. What will Oscar and Caitlin do when faced with wine regions they rarely talk about? What sweet sweet angel makes the bread at Vin Sur Vingt? Is Space Jam relevant to this podcast? Do French cigarettes smell better than American cigarettes or does Oscar just have "grass is always greener" syndrome? Will Caitlin make us move to France just so she can talk pretty about French wine? Listen to this tenth episode to find out. Also...happy tenth episode anniversary you sweet sweet listeners :)
