In 2010, Radio Host Adam Montiel combined his longtime love for broadcasting with his, then, new love for wine. He created and produced, ‘The Cork Dorks'. The show was hosted with Adam and his good friend Jeremy. It was the first of its kind. It began focusing on central coast wineries but as the show grew, so did their ability to travel and meet other winemakers they found everywhere from Napa to Bordeaux that adopted that same Central Coast quality of people willing to share their wines, and their stories. As the area grew, soon Adam's interview's covered everything from spirits, craft beer, cider, cuisine, hospitality, and more. Fast forward to today, the spirit and enthusiasm cultivated with the award winning show, is reborn as The Pour with Adam Montiel, this time independently, and unfettered by corporate authority leaving it even more free to share the journey of making wine more approachable and fun for everyone.  Here, We Taste It. We Spill It. We Leave it All On the Table. This is ‘The Pour' with Adam Montiel.__________Sincere Thanks to those who support The Pour. Please take a moment and visit them and thank them for supporting local broadcasting, and valuing what we do here.

Natural wine – wine produced with minimal chemical intervention – is growing increasingly popular in the United States. But critics say the lack of defined standards and certification means consumers don't quite know what they're getting when they uncork a bottle. It's harvest time in California. Pickers are plucking grapes from the vines as quickly as they can. This vineyard is certified organic. Growers here say consumers want wines that reflect their lifestyle choices. “The farm-to-table movement in the United States really made people concerned about what they're eating and what they're putting into their bodies. And I think for a really long time, we were a little bit more focused on the food that we're eating and the food that we're purchasing and consuming. And I think now it's also grown to encompass the wine that we're drinking as well,” says David Rothchild, owner of Los Paisanos Vineyard Management Company. These grapes will not just end up in organic wines, the vineyard supplies several natural wine producers. Natural wine is a production philosophy that favors as little intervention as possible, typically fermented with no added water, yeast or flavor enhancers. Rothchild thinks it's a good market to get into, at a time when overall wine consumption is falling. “There aren't as many wine drinkers right now and the wine-drinking population is aging and they're not attracting a younger audience,” he says. “I think that the younger audience is very attracted by natural wine. I think that it's a different flavor. There has been a movement towards lower alcohol, higher acid wines, wines that are more refreshing.” Total Wine, which operates 257 stores in 28 U.S. states, says sales of natural wine have more than tripled from a year ago. “The natural wine movement is great for the consumer because it is providing an alternative to the mass-produced wine that may have a lot of chemicals in it or have vineyards that are farmed with pesticides or chemicals that have proven to be very bad for you,” says winemaker Pax Mahle. Analysts say natural wine is currently the fastest-growing segment of the U.S. wine industry. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

Hosts Sandy and Michelle are joined by Pax Mahle of Pax Wines. While tasting three of Pax Wines' Gamays, Pax tells the story that begins with his early years studying to be a sommelier to his career shift later in life to become a wine maker. Pax shares his philosophy of making wine which has been to grow lesser known varietals with an organic, natural approach. Gamay is one of those varietals and has been called the sommelier's secret weapon -- Pax Wines' Gamay offerings are delightful. Combined with a focus on affordability and organic practices, Pax Mahle's goal is to share delicious wines that are pure and natural, allowing the grape to shine through. ****************************************We have been listed in the Top 30 wine podcasts! https://blog.feedspot.com/wine_podcasts/********************************************https://pickagreatwine.com/?page_id=284Use this link to get $10 off your first purchase at Wine Spies. www.winespies.com/invites/JoSCw95j******************************************************Music from https://filmmusic.io "Night In Venice" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com) License: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) .Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/winestofind)

Blair Guthrie is a kiwi transplant to the Napa Valley and winemaker for Stewart Cellars, Hollis Wines, Slingshot Wines, and his personal passion project, Guthrie Family Wines all based in Napa Valley. I met up with Blair at the Stewart Cellars tasting room in Yountville, which I highly recommend you visit, especially if you are able to do a library tasting in what they call their Nomad Room. It is a gorgeously designed space with art on the walls, dark leather furniture, books galore that range from coffee table books about the designer Tom Ford to old copies of Hemingway. It is a room that has so much life, so many stories. A place where you can go to relax and enjoy some beautiful Napa wines. If you can’t stop by, take a look at the space at StewartCellars.com In this episode, Blair and I chat about his story and how he got into wine as a kiwi in New Zealand to coming to Napa, working with the amazing winemaker, Paul Hobbs, and how he approaches making wines at price points ranging from $16 to $175 per bottle. We also dig into the artistry of winemaking, some of the science behind it all, and most importantly, throughout the episode Blair and I taste through eleven plus wines, which he gives insight as to how he made them, the tasting notes on them, and all of the little details that go into making fantastic Napa wines. It was a really great conversation in which I learned a lot and thoroughly enjoyed spending time with Blair, who was introduced to me by another podcast guest from a few episodes back, Shannon Westfall of Vinfluence Wines. Which if you haven’t heard that episode, listen to it after my conversation with Blair.
