In dieser Folge hatten wir die Ehre uns mit dem Tiroler Sommelier Aldo Sohm in seinem Heimaturlaub zu treffen. Er ist mittlerweile seit 19 Jahren in New York erfolgreich…er hat uns erzählt wie es dazu kam! Spannende und Lustige Geschichten vom sympathischen „Austro-Ami“ warten auf euch ;-)

Man könnte Aldo Sohm vorstellen, indem man alle Preise auflistet, die er als Spitzensommelier in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten gewonnen hat. Machen wir aber nicht. Weil: viel zu lang. Fassen wir uns also kurz und sagen wir's einfach so: Unter all seinen Trophäen und Medaillen ist auch jene des besten Sommeliers der Welt. Kein Wunder also, dass der gebürtige Tiroler heute einer der berühmtesten, schillerndsten und für viele in der Branche inspirierendsten Aushängeschilder der Spitzensommelerie ist. Seit 2004 lebt er in New York und macht dort nicht nur als Chefsommelier des ikonischen Dreisterner Le Bernardin von sich reden. Nein, Aldo Sohm hat im Big Apple auch eine nach ihm benannte Weinbar, ist Bestseller-Autor, Weinmacher, Markenbotschafter – und, und, und. Im großen Rolling Pin-Podcast verrät Sohm, was Rennradfahren mit Spitzensommelerie zu tun hat, warum er manchmal die Welt einfach nicht mehr versteht – und was der größte Unterschied zwischen US-amerikanischen und der österreichischen Gastronomie ist.

Nach der Sommerpause geht es volle Kanne weiter mit Teil drei der TundA* Europatournee! Diese Woche zu Gast: New York City's finest, Tiroler Weltstar und Beinahe-Nachbar von Willi - Aldo Sohm! Auf der Agenda: Weinwissen ohne Ende und fünf deliziöse Flaschen Wein. Einige davon hat Aldo kurzerhand aus dem Weinkeller des Vaters stibitzt. Der Plan: Curly (na gut, Willi auch) ein paar top gealterte, reife Weißweine probieren zu lassen. Mission erfüllt! Während dieses strammen Programms teilt Aldo nicht nur Pullen sondern auch Anekdoten, als ob's kein Morgen gäb: Wie ihm die Prohibition noch heute Ärger bereitet, was Gäste wirklich wollen, wie die Feinheiten bei Sommeliersprüfungen aussehen - und, und, und. Aber nicht nur Aldo hat Skills: Curly packt einen Freestyle-Rap aus und beeindruckt mit Reimschema, Wortwahl und Delivery. Wir sagen: heute nur Höchstnoten - TundA* is back!

Tired of all the “woo-woo” floating around in the self-help and personal development space? Have you ever listened to these podcasters and rolled your eyes are the grand sweeping statements they make that have very little actionable steps? This podcast is about the nitty gritty journey of becoming a better business person, improving your station in life and generally succeeding in whatever endeavor you are attempting. We speak about the steps it takes, in detail, to achieve the results you want. We will talk about everything from growing up in a rough childhood to building your own business. But be warned this podcast isn’t for the fainthearted. We will dispel many of the self-help tropes and will speak from experience. None of those mindless tropes and broad-sweeping generalities here. This is for people who need to get things done. Facts over feelings and experience over theory is our mantra. Life is not a motivational poster.

Recommending wine to New York diners for almost 8 years now, her love for wine was discovered while living on a vineyard in Austria and was then fostered at Wallsé by Aldo Sohm. After working for him there and Le Bernardin, she had a brief stint at the then newly-opened RN74 in San Francisco, returning to NYC to open The Lion in the West Village. From there, she moved uptown, to work with Michael Madrigale at Bar Boulud and Boulud Sud. Currently, she is working with Chef Didier Elena and a roster of the world’s best chefs at Chefs Club by Food & Wine, where she has curated a list of fine and delicious wines from around the world. Jerusha holds an Advanced Sommelier Certificate from the Court of Master Sommeliers, a Diploma of Wine & Spirits from the WSET (Wine & Spirits Education Trust) and a B.A. from Macalester College. Tune in for a great show! This program was brought to you by Michter’s. “I’ve really learned how a wine that you wouldn’t necessarily gravitate to can be something you would love based on what you’re eating. It can make the food better!” [4:48] “Work with someone who has tasted so much more than you and knows more than you and can teach you. There’s so much to learn and I still have so much to learn.” [13:39] —Jerusha Frost on In the Drink

As Chef Sommelier of Le Bernardin, New York’s longest rated four-star restaurant, Aldo Sohm oversees a wine collection consisting of 15,000 bottles made up of 900 wine selections from 12 countries with vintages that date back to 1875. Sohm’s fascination with wine began at the age of 19 after visiting an Italian vineyard with his father. Captivated with what he encountered and learned, he knew quickly that he wanted to pursue a career in wine. Sohm reached the pinnacle of wine competitions when he was awarded the highly-coveted title, “Best Sommelier in the World 2008,” by the World Sommelier Association, the first representative of America to win the title. Since then he has garnered success all throughout the wine industry, becoming known as one of the best sommelier’s in the world. On this episode of In the Drink, learn more about Sohm’s work – what he considers being a Chef Sommelier is, what continues his interest in wine, and what’s in store for the future. This program has been sponsored by Heritage Foods USA. “In New York you see an incredibly amount of wealth – but you also see the other side. I saw City Harvest and it was eye-opening, so I wanted to contribute to that and help a good cause.” [26:30] — Aldo Sohm on In the Drink
