So much to chew on in this episode of Industry Night. First! I've been eating: The people of DC love to brunch. LOVE IT and the people at the Gaylord are here to feed that beast! In the newly renovated and relaunched Old Hickory, they are now doing a baller brunch, 3- courses — to me it is a little bit too much — but based on the reactions of the other diners I was in the minority. The first course is served on a massive board with hot out of the oven pastries, granola and yogurt, a selection of local cheeses, big berries and sliced fruit oh and baked oysters. That's to start. Then we got a pancake board for the table - 10 massive pancakes with little pots of Nutella, whipped cream, chocolate sauce, butter, jam and hot maple syrup. There was a steak & egg sandwich and the last course, a tiered tray of composed pastries and cookies. Like I said way too much but brunch lovers that is for you Got a little wellness into my busy schedule thanks to the good people at Balian Springs and DC Magazine. David and I felt like we had arrived at an Indonesian oasis and took full advantage of all the Balian Springs offerings: Sunning on the rooftop Lounging in the outdoor pool (while being massaged with waterjets) Sitting in the healing hydrotherapy poolsPopping into several of the detoxifying saunas We meditated and rung out the evening with a ritual sound bath An evening of self-care was a magical way to start the week. Got to sit with one of my favorite women in the restaurant biz — Lydia Chang — the business side and daughter of famous chef Peter Chang. She took me on a tasting tour of all the menu changes and the recently opened downtown spot. The perfect Pekin Duck ( I am there for the pancakes), the crispy rice stew, the bulbous scallion pancake — maybe I should take a breather from all the pancakes  The space is so light, bright and modern — love having time with Lydia but honestly love the cuisine and the experience. And one quick last one …  tis the season for Ice Cream! The Charmery is a well loved ice cream destination in Baltimore and now there is one is Chevy Chase. Basically in my backyard — the ice cream is so smooth and creamy. And I love the flavors — my current favorite is the Ice Cream Sandwich — it's like they took all these ice cream sandwiches and whipped them together. So so delish. Um, okay I'll stop there let's get on to today's show I am so honored to have today's guests joining me. She needs no introduction but I am going to give it to her anyway! Najmieh Batmanglij has spent the past 40 years cooking, traveling, and adapting authentic Persian recipes to tastes and techniques in the West. The Washington Post calls her “the guru of Persian cuisine” having written more than 8 books including, Food of Life, Silk Road Cooking, From Persia to Napa: Wine at the Persian Table and Cooking in Iran: Regional Recipes and Kitchen Secrets. The NYTimes names her one of seven immigrant women who changed the way Americans eat and most recently she has partnered with Michelin starred chef Chris Morgan to open up Joon, a Persian Restaurant here in the DC Area. Let's dig in with Chefs Najmieh & Chris!

I stumbled upon Stanton wines a few years back and I was very impressed with their quality for the price. Their winemaker was none other than Dave Phinney who crafted amazing Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah from Doug's finest vineyards in  the Napa Valley. I tracked down Doug Stanton who joins us from the vineyard on this weeks Cork & Taylor Wine Podcast. Thanks to Silvadore Brands for partnering with the Cork & Taylor Wine Podcast and being the official wine preserver or gas (Argon) provider.Go the link below to get your Silvadore Argon Gas Wine Preserver.

Our guest this episode of the Cork & Taylor Wine Podcast was born with a wineglass in his hand, and that is the truth you could say as Hugh was born in 1965, the same year that his parents, Jack and Jamie Davies, purchased the abandoned Schramsberg Estate in Calistoga. Hugh grew up among the vines, caves, tanks and barrels that make Schramsberg Vineyards what it is today: the premier producer of American sparkling wines. We had a great time sitting down talking wine with Hugh Davies and tasting the some Schramberg sparkling wines too.Thanks to Silvadore Brands for partnering with the Cork & Taylor Wine Podcast and being the official wine preserver or gas (Argon) provider.Go the link below to get your Silvadore Argon Gas Wine Preserver.

Jim Cox is a regular visitor to the show this time of year, bringing wine for us to tase (not drink, it's a subtle but real difference) and discuss. He and his wife own Southern Napa Wine Store in Daphne, Alabama. Jim and I discuss the new popular wines that have emerged over the year (sauvignon blanc) and the soaring prices of Napa cabernets as well as some new "mocktail" mixes that are actually verty tasty - good news for the designated drivers and teetotalers. Jim is always a fun and loquacious guest. This is another of my favorite guests that come back each December. Cheers!

Dodging questions and changing subjects is just how Speaker Pelosi rolls. She's got her fridges full of ice cream, so the average American's struggle at the grocery store means nothing to her. Grace says that's just the thing: Democrats love to talk about hypothetical struggle, but never real problems for real people.

What does Beringer White Zinfandel and Luke Taylor have in common? One of the only White Zins I tried back in the day when I visited Beringer and it wasn't too bad plus no need to brush the sugar off your teeth after consuming. This week on the Cork & Taylor Wine Podcast, we got Ryan Rech, the chief winemaker of Beringer Vineyards. This Napa winery is old like really old and haven't had their wines in forever...they were yummy! Ryan has a really cool story and the wannabe Hulk Hogan (I gave him that title) talks a little health, weightlifting and his life in general! I almost forget we talked about the famed Knights Valley which Beringer is known for. Always a ball on the Cork & Taylor Wine Podcast!Don't forget to Subscribe, Rate and Review!

A history of Napa Valley wine from Jack Farrell with Haskell's Wines and Spirits.

Listening to some classic rock and taking requests live on FB from 8pm to 10pm pt.

Today's podcast is about finding creativity and inspiration through wine.In this episode we sit down with Jean-Charles Boisset to discuss his vision of wine through art, and how we might be closer than ever to the vineyards through the Metaverse.I consider Jean-Charles Boisset to be an artist who embraces so many facets of the wine industry, expressing it through jewelry, art, perfume, and entertainment.Jean-Charles Boisset was born into the world of wine in the village of Vougeot (Burgundy), France—the heart and birthplace of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. His lifelong passion for wine began early, having grown up on the family's estate winery, Domaine de la Vougeraie, located within view of the centuries-old vineyards of Château du Clos de Vougeot.Jean-Charles' passion for California and California wineries endowed with history, heritage and a pioneering spirit led him to Sonoma County in 2003, where he purchased DeLoach Vineyards, an early producer of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Zinfandel in the esteemed Russian River Valley. This set to motion further purchases of distinct wineries and destinations in the Napa Valley and Sonoma County, including Raymond Vineyards, Buena Vista Winery, Oakville Grocery, and in 2021 The Ink House Luxury Inn and Elizabeth Spencer Winery in Rutherford.Since 2016, Bottled in China brings you into the food and drink scene through conversations with the some of the most happening personalities. Hosted by Emilie Steckenborn, the show is your one spot for all things food, beer, wine and spirits from across the world. Podcast available on iTunes, Spotify , online or wherever you listen to your episodes!

Nick Goldschmidt has been lucky so far. A wildfire has burned more than 8,000 acres just north of his vineyards in Geyserville, California, but so far his vines are OK. So is his house in Healdsburg, roughly midway between Geyserville and a 36,000-acre fire that destroyed more than 2,800 homes in Santa Rosa. But now, amid the charred, empty spaces that scar northern California's winegrowing region, under skies yellowed by smoke, Goldschmidt has a race to win.
