Podcasts about Chianti

What does it take to keep a family name alive for nearly four centuries in the same valley, on the same hills, with the same grapes — and still have something new to say? Welcome to Tedeschi Wines. One of the oldest family estates in Valpolicella, with roots stretching back to the 17th century and a philosophy that has never confused age with complacency. And meet Riccardo Tedeschi — the winemaker who inherited not just a name, but a restlessness. Because his father used to say a bad vintage is when you have no new idea. In this episode, Pierre sits down with Riccardo to explore one of Italy's most quietly compelling wine stories. We talk terroir, elegance, and why Valpolicella is so much more than Amarone. We unpack the white wine nobody saw coming, the single vineyards competing with the best of Chianti, and the house philosophy that puts finesse and freshness at the centre of a region famous for power. We talk about a family that owns its land, builds its own walls, and refuses to stop asking questions. Want more? A bonus episode with Riccardo — covering blending philosophy, climate change, and the uncomfortable truth about the distance between a wine people admire and a wine people actually pour — is available exclusively at readbetweenthewines.com.   For more information about our Podcast, visit us on the web: https://readbetweenthewines.com Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/betweenthewinesmedia Connect with us on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/read-between-the-wines  

Seguimos con nuestros viajes a lo largo y ancho del mundo. Volvemos a Italia para completar nuestro recorrido por una de las regiones más bellas del país, por su gran patrimonio artístico e histórico. Nos referimos a la región de Toscana. En otro podcast de nuestro programa “EL TIEMPO EN TU DESTINO” visitamos Volterra, San Gimignano, Monteriggioni, el Valle de Orcia y Siena. Y ahora vamos a completar nuestra ruta por esta región para conocer sus paisajes bucólicos, sus pueblos medievales y la gastronomía local, todo ello hacen de la Toscana una de los lugares imprescindibles que visitar de Italia. Y los lugares que nos faltaban visitar son: Montepulciano, Arezzo, Pistoya, Lucca y el Valle de Chianti. Recordemos que la Toscana está ubicada en la Italia central, y ocupa una superficie de 22.994 km², lo que la convierte en la quinta región más extensa del país. Su población se acerca a los 3,8 millones de habitantes, siendo así la séptima región más poblada de Italia. La Toscana posee todo lo que un viajero necesita, desde la costa, con sus acantilados y playas, hasta las montañas de los Apeninos, con mucho más relieve del que normalmente imaginamos. Y entre medio la llanura, las colinas sobre las que se asientan las ciudades toscanas y las residencias campestres que hacen las delicias de fotógrafos y turistas. Descripción del clima en la Toscana y en Arezzo, indicando el tiempo que acostumbra a hacer en cada época del año y los mejores lugares a visitar.

@MariuMartini_ nos mostró sui excursión por la región y famosos vinos de Italia.

Of course you can chill red wine! But, not just any red wine, though. There are specific fruity and juicy red wines that are amazing when they are chilled, and one of the very best is Frappato. Frappato comes from Sicily, and for a long time it was used as a cheap blending grape. But no longer! Over the past several decades, winemakers in Sicily have been making beautiful, fun, food-friendly Frappato that are perfect for a picnic or summer cookout. And people in the know are really starting to pay attention. If you want to be counted among the cool kids, and you need to get out of your red wine rut, Frappato is a perfect answer. Frappato is often compared to Gamay and Pinot Noir, although its origins link it to the great Italian wine grape Sangiovese, the grape in Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino. Our take? Run, don't walk, to find yourself some Frappato, pop it in your fridge, and enjoy.

This week on Pod Have Mercy, Matt is out, so John and Geoff take the mic for a wide-ranging conversation on artificial intelligence, the future of creativity, and whether AI will make life easier or eventually take over everything.They also dive into a surprising spiritual metaphor: vineyards. From dormancy and pruning to harvest and renewal, the rhythms of the vine become a powerful lens for understanding seasons of faith and growth. Along the way, they discuss wine culture, church history, travel to Italy, and what it means to create meaningful work in a rapidly changing world.From ChatGPT to Chianti, this one goes everywhere.

Courtney Dauwalter returns to the Singletrack Podcast ahead of her second attempt at Cocodona 250, the race she started last year and didn't finish, to talk through everything that has happened in between.We open with the Tenerife cancellation and the scramble to pivot to Chianti, including the late surge that won the race and why she credits road marathon training for giving her a new gear she didn't know she had.From there we get into her first real reset in her ultra career, what went wrong at mile 108 at last year's Cocodona, and the one problem she's most excited to solve across day two, night two, and day three of this year's race.We close on her five year Salomon contract extension, what a post-racing chapter actually looks like to her, and what's on the bucket list beyond the three classics (Western States, Hardrock, and UTMB) she's built her career around.Partners:Precision Fuel and Hydration - use code SINGLETRACK at checkout for 15% off your next orderNorda - check out the 005: the lightest, fastest, most stable trail racing shoe ever madeRaide - Making equipment for efficient human-powered movement in the mountains Janji - premium trail running apparelMomentous - use code SINGLETRACK for up to 35% off your first order Kodiak Cakes - my favorite oatmeal and pancakes Support the show

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay have some fava beans and a nice Chianti before talking about the thriller masterpiece, 'The Silence of the Lambs.' Andy is the first to rub the lotion on his skin, as he recalls having to make an illegal deal with a looney guy who bred exotic moths, butterflies, and other creepy crawlies similar to Buffalo Bill. Then the boys dive into Jonathan Demme's classic that spawned countless imitators, and some truly regrettable sequels. The guys try to make sense of Hannibal Lecter's otherworldly abilities such as being able to smell as if he was part X-Men. This leads to comparing Anthony Hopkins' unforgettable turn as the cannibalistic doctor versus Brian Cox's more subdued portrayal in the '80s. Hopkins and Jodie Foster may have been bestowed with the most critical acclaim, but Ted Levine plays the actual villain in this film, and his Buffalo Bill is skin-crawlingly effective. Andy and Bombay wonder why he was never given the prestigious career that others had. Maybe it was the tuck scene that turned people off? They truly do not make them like this anyone — that refers to this box office studio smash, and this podcast. 

Zoë and TJ are back from Italy and kicking off April with a packed episode. First up: coach Kyle Jones: a masters athlete and ultra running specialist with a focus on helping athletes who are all in on the long game, whether that's accumulating volume safely or solving the full puzzle of race-day logistics that go far beyond training.Then it's Hot or Nots. On the docket: incline stretch boards for calf and Achilles work (the evidence is real, but eccentric loading beats passive stretching for most underlying issues), packaged Rice Krispie Treats as race fuel (the macros check out — 27 to 30 grams of carbs, glucose plus fructose, low fiber — but the chewability at mile 50 is another story), Ziploc bags in ice bandanas (hard pass: the evaporation is the whole point), hybrid athletes as a category (the jury is out, but the coaches aren't your girls if high rocks is your thing), run clubs (yes, with a firm caveat on effort), and microdosing during ultras (the research case for decriminalization is strong; the research case for running 100 miles on psilocybin is still pending).The listener Q this week tackles one of the most common rules in running: you don't need to fuel for efforts under 90 minutes. Zoë and TJ break down why that's only half the story. There are actually two separate mechanisms at play — the metabolic pathway most runners know, and a neurological pathway most don't. Receptors in the mouth and upper GI tract signal the brain the moment carbohydrates are detected, easing the protective fatigue response before a single calorie has been absorbed. This has been demonstrated even when athletes swish a carb solution and spit it out. For high-intensity efforts like a hard half marathon, the case for fueling is stronger than the 90-minute rule suggests — and the practical takeaways are in the episode.The back half is a full race debrief on Chianti. Zoë ran an hour faster than last year and still came in 13th. TJ walks through how to approach a post-race analysis when the headline result doesn't tell the full story — and how Zoë's coach surfaced a key data point she almost missed entirely: cardiac drift. In 2025, Zoë's cardiac drift was 9.54% over the course of the race. In 2026, it was negative 1.39%, meaning she was actually able to access higher heart rates at the end of the race — a direct signal of aerobic durability built by keeping easy days genuinely easy, week after week. The conversation covers what cardiac drift actually measures, why gray zone training works against this adaptation, and what the terrain-specific limiter was that explains the placement gap.

In this episode, Rachel Entrekin returns to the show immediately following her 3rd place finish at Chianti by UTMB and gives a firsthand account of one of the most dramatic finishes of the season.We start with the moment everyone's talking about: Courtney Dauwalter's decisive late-race surge. Rachel walks us through how the race unfolded from the front, what it felt like to be running all day shoulder-to-shoulder, and what made Courtney's final move so shocking even to the athletes in the race.From there, we zoom out to what this performance means for Rachel's trajectory. We discuss the narrative around her being a “200-mile specialist,” the pressure she felt coming into the race, and why this result felt like a long-overdue validation of her ability across distances.We also break down the competitive dynamics at the front of the field, including what makes both Courtney Dauwalter and Ingvild Kaspersen uniquely difficult to race against, and why Chianti stands out as the most competitive - and most enjoyable - race of Rachel's career so far.In the second half, we get into the performance details: fueling breakthroughs (including a surprising shift toward gels), gear choices, and how improved nutrition may be unlocking a new level of speed and durability. We close with a look ahead to Cocodona and what this race might signal about Rachel's ceiling in 2026.Partners:Precision Fuel and Hydration - use code SINGLETRACK at checkout for 15% off your next orderNorda - check out the 005: the lightest, fastest, most stable trail racing shoe ever madeRaide - Making equipment for efficient human-powered movement in the mountains Janji - premium trail running apparelSupport the show

In this episode of the wine podcast, Janina dives into one of Italy's most prestigious and age-worthy wines: Brunello di Montalcino. Joined by Italian wine expert Ian D'Agata, this episode blends wine education with a deep exploration of wine regions, helping you learn about wine through the lens of Sangiovese. From wine grapes and clonal diversity to terroir, aging potential and tasting profiles, you'll discover what makes Brunello unique and how this iconic Tuscan wine compares to others made from the same grape. Plus, if you love wine travel, you'll hear about an immersive opportunity to study wine directly in Montalcino, tasting up to 100 wines with producers in the region. To find out more about joining The Ian D'Agata Wine Academy in Montalcino on 16th, 17th & 18th April 2026 click here. Or email Giulia Corino For those attending the Ian D'Agata Wine Academy, there will be a special guest speaker session led by Maddy Jimerson MS, Master Sommelier and Director of Casa Mia in Denver. With a strong connection to Alto Piemonte, where she regularly spends time, Maddy will be guiding an in-depth session focused on the wines of this fascinating region of Italy.   SHOWNOTES: 02:52 – Ian explains why wine education is so important, sharing how great teachers shaped his career and why helping people understand wine makes a real difference. 05:56 – Why most people stick to familiar wines - and how learning about lesser-known Italian grape varieties can completely change how you choose a bottle. 10:00 – Looking beyond Brunello and Barolo, Ian highlights powerful Italian red wine grapes like Aglianico that deserve more attention. 11:02 – Introduction to Ian's Wine Academy in Montalcino, where small groups taste up to 100 wines while learning directly in the region. 14:12 – Setting the scene in Tuscany: the rolling hills, vineyards and landscapes that make Montalcino one of the most beautiful wine regions in the world. 15:56 – Key differences between Montalcino and Chianti wine regions, and how climate and landscape shape completely different expressions of Sangiovese. 17:04 – Can you identify Sangiovese wines in a blind tasting? A breakdown of how blends, climate and structure influence the final wine style. 20:57 – The origin of the name “Brunello” and how a specific type of Sangiovese gave rise to this iconic wine. 24:42 – Exploring the complexity of Sangiovese: over 100 clones and how producers select and combine them to improve quality. 26:57 – What it means for a vine to be “virus-affected” and why this can sometimes lead to more concentrated, higher-quality wines. 29:11 – How to recognise Sangiovese in the glass: red fruit, acidity, tannins and the characteristic herbal and floral notes. 31:56 – The aging requirements of Brunello di Montalcino and why these wines can develop beautifully over decades. 34:32 – Castiglion del Bosco: a historic estate that has significantly increased its quality in recent years and plays a role in Ian's course. 35:49 – Rosso di Montalcino explained: a more accessible, earlier-drinking style that offers great value from the same region. 39:46 – The key soil types of Montalcino (galestro, alberese and more) and how they influence structure, minerality and mouthfeel. 41:11 – What the course experience looks like day-to-day, from tastings and classes to winery visits and shared meals. 42:09 – Moscadello di Montalcino: the lesser-known sweet wine of the region that still survives today. 44:54 – The range of wines tasted during the course, covering multiple Italian wine regions, styles and grape varieties. 47:49 – Who the course is designed for: both wine professionals and enthusiasts who want to deepen their wine knowledge. 50:46 – Course dates and availability, including upcoming sessions in April and November. 52:24 – How the course aligns with major wine events like Vinitaly, making it ideal for those already travelling in Italy. 53:27 – How to get more information and book your place on the course.

Il video esplora la tragica e misteriosa storia della famiglia Hauser, un intreccio di spionaggio, criminalità organizzata e segreti di Stato che attraversa trent'anni di storia internazionale. Basandosi su documenti declassificati (FOIA) e atti ufficiali, l'indagine collega la figura di Virginia Hill (legata alla mafia americana) a suo figlio Peter Jackson Hauser, un soldato d'élite statunitense la cui presenza in Italia coincide con i momenti più bui della Repubblica, come il sequestro di Aldo Moro. Analisi Tematica Virginia Hill: L'Anello tra Mafia e Spettacolo La storia inizia con Virginia Hill, corriere della "Chicago Outfit" e compagna del boss Bugsy Siegel. Dopo l'assassinio di Siegel e la sua testimonianza pubblica contro il crimine organizzato, Virginia si rifugiò in Austria, dove sposò lo sciatore Hans Hauser. La sua morte nel 1966, ufficialmente un suicidio, rimane sospetta per i suoi legami mai interrotti con boss del calibro di Joe Adonis e i tentativi di ricatto verso la mafia italo-americana. Peter Hauser: Il Soldato d'Élite dall'Identità Oscura Peter, figlio di Virginia e Hans, intraprese una carriera militare atipica. Nonostante decorazioni come la Bronze Star e l'addestramento nelle Special Forces (Berretti Verdi), rimase formalmente un soldato semplice per dieci anni. I documenti suggeriscono che la sua carriera ufficiale fosse una copertura per operazioni clandestine. Nel 1978, fu arrestato all'isola d'Elba con una falsa identità tedesca e materiale propagandistico della RAF (fazione terroristica tedesca). L'Intersezione con il Caso Moro Il fermo di Peter Hauser il 21 marzo 1978, a soli cinque giorni dal rapimento di Aldo Moro, rappresenta il cuore del mistero. Nonostante il possesso di documenti falsi e materiale terroristico, Hauser fu processato in tempi record e consegnato a una base militare USA a Pisa, scomparendo dai radar. Il coinvolgimento del Sismi e di figure legate alla P2 suggerisce una rete di protezione o un ruolo attivo dell'uomo negli eventi di via Fani. L'Oblio e la Fine della Dinastia Dopo aver vissuto per undici anni sotto falso nome a Greve in Chianti (Toscana), Peter morì in Francia nel 1995 in un sospetto incidente autostradale. La sua morte, insieme a quella del padre Hans (trovato impiccato nel 1974 dopo aver tentato di recuperare i diari segreti di Virginia), chiude definitivamente la linea familiare degli Hauser, lasciando aperte domande inquietanti sul ruolo dei servizi segreti e della criminalità negli equilibri mondiali.

In this week's edition of Singletrack News, we break down a major development in the UK trail running scene after Ourea Events - the organizers behind races like Dragon's Back, Cape Wrath Ultra, and the Northern Traverse - announced they are ceasing trading, putting several iconic races in jeopardy and leaving athletes uncertain about the future of some of the sport's most ambitious point-to-point events.We also discuss confusion surrounding UTMB's new broadcast partnership with FloSports. After speculation online that UTMB races could move behind a paywall, organizers clarified that the UTMB Live stream will remain free, with FloSports serving as a simulcast partner in the United States.Elsewhere, we dig into UTMB's 2026 live broadcast schedule, which includes 10 races across the World Series - but notably excludes Golden Ticket events like Chianti and Canyons.We also cover:UTMB CEO Fabrice Perrin raising concerns about “ambush marketing” in trail runningThe debut of the Big Alta 100K in Marin HeadlandsPreviewing the Chianti by UTMB Golden Ticket battleCourtney Dauwalter lining up at Tenerife Blue Trail as an early season testNike recruiting ultrarunners for a 15-week research residency at the Nike Sports Research LabAnd our content picks of the week, including a conversation between Harry Styles and Haruki Murakami on how running fuels creativityPartners:Precision Fuel and Hydration - use code SINGLETRACK at checkout for 15% off your next orderNorda - check out the 005: the lightest, fastest, most stable trail racing shoe ever madeRaide - Making equipment for efficient human-powered movement in the mountains Janji - premium trail running apparelKodiak Cakes - my favorite oatmeal and pancakes Support the show

Send a textPerched above the village of Radda in Chianti, this tiny 12-acre estate is carved into steep hillsides at 1,050–1,200 feet, surrounded by forest and bathed in southeastern light. Ancient vines—mostly Sangiovese planted in 1967—dig deep into galestro clay and fractured alberese stone, yielding wines of striking tension and lift. #ertadiradda#chianticlassico#chianticlassico_brunello_loverCheck out the website: www.drinkingonthejob.com for great past episodes.

In this episode from Highclere Castle, I sit down with Nick Hopton to talk about his book, "Marma Mia," which begins as the story of buying and restoring a holiday house in an unspoiled part of Tuscany, the Maremma and becomes a wider family and personal journey. Nick shares how reading "A Year in Provence" during COVID while he was British Ambassador to Libya helped inspire him to write a feel-good book that encourages readers to discover lesser-known regions. We discuss his Foreign Office career and his approach to languages, including learning Arabic across postings such as Morocco, Yemen, Qatar and Libya, along with French, Italian, Spanish, some German, and some Farsi ahead of becoming ambassador to Iran after the 2015 nuclear deal and the reopening of the British embassy. Nick explains how a friend's suggestion to look beyond Chianti led serendipitously to the first house they viewed and ultimately boughtalongside the realities of renovating abroad: high costs, practical challenges, and the highs and lows of making a place work for family life. We also talk about his unexpected love of landscaping and working with a skilled digger operator he calls “Michelangelo,” the region's food, wine, local olive oil and its strong Tuscan accent. Nick recounts a memorable moment when a friend arrived with an armed escort and the town's mayor turned out to greet them, and he updates me on ongoing projects, including drilling a 97-meter well to reach a fresh aquifer. Looking ahead, Nick describes writing best in the relative isolation of the Italian house and shares his interest in writing more broadly about the Mediterranean, linked to his role creating a new program at the University of Cambridge Centre for Geopolitics. We touch on the Napoleonic history of the area, including the principality of Piombino and Lucca and Napoleon's sister Elisa and end with a playful question about a dream dance guest Nick chooses Dante's Beatrice, reflecting his early love of Dante's poetry and its lifelong influence.00:00 Meet Nick Hopton & the book ‘Marma Mia' (restoring a house in Italy)00:50 Inspired by ‘A Year in Provence': writing a feel-good travel memoir during COVID01:59 Diplomatic life & learning languages: Arabic, French, Italian (and more)04:26 Why you should speak the local language (even with bad grammar)05:17 Falling for Tuscany's Maremma: the serendipitous house-buying story07:42 Renovation reality: highs, lows, and why the Maremma stays authentic08:44 Landscaping obsession: diggers, Kubotas, and ‘Michelangelo' the operator11:05 Food, wine & dialect: tomatoes, olive oil, and the Tuscan accent12:49 Small-town surprises: the ambassador friend visit and the mayor's welcome13:43 The work never ends: is the villa project ever really finished?14:01 Digging a 97m Well & the Never-Ending House Project14:27 What's Next After the Book: A Wider Mediterranean Focus14:58 Seeing the Mediterranean Holistically (Cambridge Geopolitics & Trade Routes)16:26 Duff Cooper, John Julius Norwich & Highclere's Colorful Guests17:20 Writing Habits: Tuscany, Isolation, Rhythm & Beating Procrastination18:37 Italy, Maremma & Napoleonic History: Elisa and the Principality of Piombino and Lucca20:30 Diplomatic Postings & Reopening the UK Embassy in Iran (2015)23:09 Iran Today: Regime Weakness, Protests, and a Hope to Visit the Cradle of Civilization24:21 Highclere's Library, the Book Club, and a Shared Love of Italy25:27 Finale: The Summer Dance Fantasy Guest—Dante, Beatrice & Vita NovaYou can hear more episodes of Lady Carnarvon's Official Podcasts at https://www.ladycarnarvon.com/podcast/New episodes are published on the first day of every month.

Sangiovese does not just reveal terroir. It reveals the winemaker. In Episode 86 of Read Between the Wines, Pierre Ferland sits down with Federico Cerelli, head winemaker at Castello di Gabbiano, one of Chianti Classico's most historic estates, to unpack what freshness, drinkability, and "modern classicism" really mean in Tuscany today. From Federico's first move at Gabbiano in 2011 (taste the past, then rebuild the future) to a masterclass on three distinct vineyard zones, you will hear how soil, wind, and microclimate shape Sangiovese into radically different personalities, from bold and structured to mineral and quietly elegant. They dive into oak without the theatre: fewer barriques, more large casks, and a rare local oak experiment that rewinds history without becoming nostalgic. Add climate chaos, the Chianti vs Chianti Classico misconception, and the "drink less, drink better" shift, and you have an episode built for wine lovers who want truth, not gloss. Chianti Classico. Tuscany. Sangiovese. No nonsense.   For more information about our Podcast, visit us on the web:https://readbetweenthewines.com Follow us on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/betweenthewinesmedia Connect with us on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/company/read-between-the-wines  

In honor of the 35th anniversary of The Silence of the Lambs (1991), we're releasing special retro coverage of the film. This commissioned podcast is brought to you by the generosity of one Aaron Spaulding, thank you! Aaron wanted us to check out the 1991 mystery/thriller, "The Silence of the Lambs", directed by Jonathan Demme and starring Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster. It's no surprise that we're mesmerized by Hopkin's performance of the chilling yet suave and charming Dr. Hannibal Lecter, and found the film offered some smart commentary on a female breaking into a male dominated space as well. What might be to some surprise is Jim and A.Ron's relative unfamiliarity with the material, which led to some confusion in places. Hope you enjoy the podcast, I hear it pairs well with a nice Chianti.

One of the most celebrated movies of all time, Silence of the Lambs (1991) redefined the psychological drama. From taking you into the mind of a serial criminal to enhancing the fear and tension of a criminal hunt, this movie defined how crime drama would be told.

Today we welcome the #1 Trail Runners of the Year, Jim Walmsley and Katie Schide, both Americans who currently reside in France. This is the second time each has won our prestigious award and they've both been featured all four years of TROY's existence.     Jim's season was anything but straight forward. He started with a big win at Chianti by UTMB in the spring before an injury prevented him from defending his win at the Western States 100. Luckily, he bounced back in a big way, winning OCC in August and then the Long Trail World Championship in September - the second individual gold medal of his career.         On the other hand, Katie is crowned TROY for the second year in a row.

Etna Rosso is sometimes referred to as the “Burgundy of the Mediterranean” and for good reason. This wine, made on the slopes of Mt. Etna in Sicily from the grape Nerello Mascalese, is a serious gastronomic wine, loved by sommeliers and wine nerds for its complexity, depth, acidity, and firm tannic structure. While it is not quite at the level of demand as Barolo, Brunello, or Aglianico, just give it some time. Nerello Mascalese is an up-and-coming grape whose parentage includes Sangiovese - that's right, the same grape in Brunello and Chianti - and it makes powerful wines that have a lot of aging potential. In fact, we thought both of the wines we tasted and reviewed in this episode could age for a while before they are truly at their prime, and need some good decanting to really open-up. Plus, if you are a White Lotus fan and remember the season where they were in Sicily, in one of the episodes they went to a winery and drank Etna Rosso and Etna Bianco (which just happens to be the subject of our episode next week!).

Season three of Wine Access Unfiltered was never about turning you into a sommelier — it was about helping you become a more confident, curious, and intentional wine buyer. In this solo finale, Amanda revisits the biggest ideas and “aha” moments from the season, from why asking better questions is the most powerful wine skill you can develop, to how importers can be your greatest shortcut to finding wines you'll actually love. Pouring a classic Chianti, Amanda reflects on where value really lives in the wine world, why popularity often drives price more than quality, and how buying wine that fits your life — not someone else's rules — leads to better bottles and more enjoyment. Whether you're catching up, revisiting favorite lessons, or setting intentions for the year ahead, this episode is your reminder that wine doesn't belong to gatekeepers. It belongs to you.
