Äntligen är vi online igen efter ett par veckors uppehåll, och här sitter jag i vår poddstudio med dunjackan på eftersom min man envisas med att köra kylaggregatet på högvarv. Men det stoppar oss inte från att skåla och dra igång! Det har varit "föräldrafritt" ett tag eftersom Jossan helt loggade ut efter en minst sagt spårad lördagskväll för två veckor sedan. Hon var på en konsert med sin kompis Victoria, men anammade stämningen som en äkta hårdrockare och började dricka tequila. Det resulterade i hennes livs värsta baksmälla som däckade henne i flera dagar. Det mest intressanta i det hela, ur ett relationsperspektiv, var att Jossan faktiskt hade förvarnat sin kompis innan om att hon var på dåligt humör och inte skulle bli det roligaste sällskapet. Detta fick oss att fastna i "relationspodden" där vi diskuterar vikten av tydlighet och planering i ett förhållande. Att våga deklarera för sin partner om man har en dålig dag, vill ha en hemmakväll för sig själv eller vill spela datorspel sparar så otroligt mycket gnissel och sura miner. Själv brukar jag planera in egna aktiviteter, som att cykla, när jag vet att min man ska titta på stora golftävlingar i fyra dagar. Det handlar om kommunikation; man måste förankra sina planer i god tid och inte landa dem i knät på sin partner klockan halv åtta på kvällen. Sedan har jag själv varit på min årliga resa till Champagne! Min man älskar att nörda ner sig totalt i detaljer om ektunnor och skogar, medan jag själv lätt fryser och ledsnar på långa föreläsningar på halvknackig engelska. Jag brukar sätta mig i bilen och jobba istället och be honom sms:a när det är dags för själva provsmakningen. Vi hade fantastiskt väder och bodde på ett magiskt hotell, Royal Champagne, där vi fick rum 007 och möttes av rosblad och kall champagne eftersom det var vårt sjunde år där. Jag passade också på att njuta i deras infinitypool och simma mina strikta 30-minuterslängder, även om Jossan skojar om att jag kör "fysspa" och borde spänna fast gurkor på ögonen för att kunna simma samtidigt. Vi avslutar avsnittet med att svara på en lyssnarfråga om hur man håller sommaren någorlunda hälsosam trots sol och rosévin. Mitt bästa tips är att skippa starkspriten helt och köra på smarta alternativ. Man kan dricka lättare bubbel som Prosecco eller Cava, eller blanda ut vitt vin och rosé med massor av is till svalkande vindrinkar. Jossans "recept" är istället att ta en så rejäl bläcka i början av sommaren att man tappar suget för resten av säsongen – vilket hon själv lyckades med då hon inte åt på tre dagar efter sitt kalas. Vi är i alla fall eniga om vårt gamla framgångsrika koncept: "Vin och protein". Att satsa på fräscha, rena proteinkällor på grillen – som fisk, räkspett och kyckling – tillsammans med goda sommarsallader med melon, fetaost eller jordgubbar. Det viktiga är att hålla koll på fyllan så att man inte tappar vettet och plockar fram chipsskålar och annat onödigt krafs på kvällskvisten. Nu laddar vi om inför tävlingssäsongen! Om podden Fitnessprofilerna Carina Isaksson och Josefin Pettersson samtalar om allt som hör begreppet "fitness" till. Oftast om träning, om kost, om tävling såklart, men även om livet utanför fitnessbubblan. Du som lyssnar på vår podcast får gärna betygsätta den på den plattform du lyssnar på. Då blir podden mer synlig för andra plus att vi värdar blir glada.

Since this was Saturday, we expected a tough crossword, and Malaika Handa and Erik Agard did not disappoint. Some of the clues were straightforward-ish, but others were definitely not for the faint of heart. We salute the constructors for their ingenuity, and our K-12 teachers for reminding us that, one day, what we'd learn would help us finish an NYTimes crossword

After his time in Oregon's Willamette Valley, Zach poses a question to Adam and Joanna: is there a real market for domestic sparkling wine, particularly wine that aims to be priced close to Champagne. Can a region well-known for Pinot Noir, and increasingly Chardonnay, parlay that into demand for bubbles, or do you need to be price-competitive with Prosecco to stand a chance?Please remember to subscribe to, rate, and review The VinePair Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your episodes, and send any questions, comments, critiques, or suggestions to podcast@vinepair.com.

Wines We're Drinking Jessica: Para Wines, Vino Blanco 2023 - lemongrass, apple, citrus finish. Fresh, light, and bright. Perfect for a warm day. Erika: Sitting this one out (allergies have her hostage), but had her heart set on a Prosecco with Chambord brunch cocktail. Noted for next time. It's our April chisme session, and mi gente, we had a LOT to unpack this month. From Coachella controversies to Celia Cruz making history, Olympic ticket sticker shock, and some deeply personal highs from Jessica, including two years of marriage and a home loan approval. Pull up a glass and let's get into it. In This Episode We Cover [00:00] Welcome & Wine Check-In: Jessica's dealing with spring allergies but still showing up with a glass of Para Wines Vino Blanco 2023. Erika gives us her imaginary Prosecco-Chambord brunch cocktail. [05:00] Karol G at Coachella: The controversy unpacked. The all-female mariachi group that wasn't actually the first, the Trump-supporting ownership, vetting failures by her team, contract logistics, and why Becky G's cameo felt intentional and powerful. [17:00] Coachella Then vs. Now: How the festival shifted from music-first to influencer activations and fashion moments. The economics behind it: $29M+ paid to 150+ artists, $25M in production, and why it's only going to keep escalating. [26:00] LA 2028 Olympics Ticket Sale: Jessica secured swimming event tickets for her nephew's graduation gift. The breakdown: opening ceremony seats at $5K to $10K, the lottery system, and the plan to use only existing venues and public transportation. [34:00] The White House Correspondents' Dinner Incident: Jessica and Erika break down why they're cynical, the questions about security failures, the Stephen Miller photo moment, and a broader conversation about political theater and manufactured narratives. [43:00] The Onion Buys InfoWars: What it means that a parody site now owns Alex Jones's platform, the $1.3B judgment, and why Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, and Megyn Kelly distancing themselves from Trump might not be what it looks like. [54:00] Celia Cruz & Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: She's a 2026 inductee and the first Spanish-language artist ever inducted. Jessica and Erika break down what her induction through the "Early Influence" category really says about how the Hall handles Latin music history. [59:00] Billboard Mujeres Latinas de la Música: Rosalía named Mujer del Año, Becky G receiving Global Impact honors. Jessica celebrates Becky G's pivot to Spanish-language music as a first-gen Mexican-American artist and what her journey means for the comunidad.

A beautiful reflection on life not going to plan and why that's okay at 48. [01:19:00] Wrapping Up + Listener Shoutout: The podcast is ending at Episode 300! Jessica wants to hear from you.

I haven't given an update to the Veneto region in more than a decade. With an upcoming Patron trip to the region, I think it's high time! Veneto is in northeastern Italy, Veneto is famed for wines like Prosecco, Valpolicella (including Amarone), Soave, and Bardolino. With 14 DOCGs, 29 DOCs, and 10 IGPs, covering about 104,400 ha (258,000 acres) of vineyards, the province makes every style of wine imaginable. Approximately 75% of plantings are white varieties—dominated by Glera at around 39% (this is the main Prosecco grape)—while 25% of plantings are red, led by Corvina with Corvinone, Rondinella, and Molinara. In this show, I discuss the history of Veneto, and then break the province down into three distinct regions, with some star DOCs and DOCGs: Eastern part: Prosecco/ Treviso Province Wine Zones: Valdobiaddene, Conegliano, Asolo, Cartizze Central part of Veneto: Around Vicenza/Padova - Breganze, Gambellara, Colli Berici, Colli Euganei Western Part: In the Hills of Verona: Valpolicella, Bardolino, Custoza, Lugana, Soave, Garda I address some of the unfair criticisms levied against Veneto by certain wine writers, talk about how to find the best of the best wines from this region, and suggest some top producers.

Rassegna stampa economico-finanziaria del 13 Aprile 2026, strutturata per macro-temi e basata sulle principali testate giornalistiche nazionali. Investimenti e MercatiTestate: Corriere della Sera / Repubblica Affari&Finanza / Il Messaggero / QNIl quadro dei mercati globali appare dominato da una combinazione di fattori macroeconomici e geopolitici. Da un lato si segnala un ritorno di forza del dollaro, che tende a ridisegnare i flussi di capitale e a comprimere la competitività dell'export europeo. Dall'altro, emerge con chiarezza il ruolo crescente dell'intelligenza artificiale come asset strategico globale: il valore potenziale del settore viene stimato in 16,4 trilioni di dollari, con una forte concentrazione dei benefici su pochi grandi operatori.Le tensioni nello Stretto di Hormuz stanno già producendo effetti tangibili sugli investimenti: si registra una contrazione dei flussi e un aumento dei costi legati alla logistica e alle assicurazioni marittime. In questo contesto, alcune filiere italiane mostrano resilienza e capacità di adattamento: è il caso del vino, che punta a una diversificazione dei mercati con un potenziale export fino a 10 miliardi di euro verso Paesi come Messico, India e Cina, compensando le difficoltà legate ai dazi statunitensi.Industria e ImpreseTestate: Corriere della Sera / Repubblica / Il Fatto Quotidiano / La VeritàIl sistema industriale europeo continua a essere fortemente condizionato dal costo dell'energia. I rincari del gas stanno incidendo direttamente sulla struttura dei costi e sui margini delle imprese, con effetti a cascata su produzione e consumi. In questo scenario, cresce la pressione da parte del mondo industriale per rivedere il phase-out del gas russo, considerato ancora una leva critica di stabilizzazione.Sul fronte tecnologico, si evidenzia il tentativo europeo di ridurre il gap con gli Stati Uniti nel campo dell'intelligenza artificiale, con player emergenti che cercano di costruire alternative competitive. Tuttavia, il ritardo strutturale resta significativo.Nel comparto difesa e aerospazio, aziende come Leonardo mostrano solidità nei bilanci ma criticità sul fronte della redditività e delle alleanze strategiche. Parallelamente, emergono rischi per il made in Italy legati alla tutela delle denominazioni: il caso del Prosecco, con possibili produzioni estere, rappresenta un potenziale precedente rilevante per l'intero sistema agroalimentare.Banche e CreditoTestate: Corriere della Sera / Repubblica Affari&Finanza / La StampaIl settore bancario si muove in un contesto ancora incerto. Permangono timori legati all'inflazione, ma si osservano segnali di tenuta della crescita economica. In questo equilibrio fragile, l'intelligenza artificiale viene vista come uno strumento chiave per migliorare l'efficienza operativa e la gestione del rischio.Un elemento rilevante è il cosiddetto “fattore sfiducia”, che contribuisce ad amplificare il caro vita e a comprimere la domanda di credito. Questo fenomeno rischia di rallentare ulteriormente la trasmissione della politica monetaria all'economia reale.A livello europeo, emerge con forza il tema della governance: la necessità di superare il meccanismo del veto tra i 27 Stati membri viene indicata come condizione essenziale per accelerare le decisioni in ambito economico e finanziario.Fisco e NormativaTestate: Il Sole 24 Ore / La Verità / DomaniSul fronte fiscale, le misure introdotte hanno un impatto immediato ma limitato nel tempo. Il bonus da 115 euro destinato a 2,4 milioni di famiglie rappresenta un intervento mirato al sostegno dei consumi, ma non modifica in modo strutturale il potere d'acquisto.Più preoccupante è il dato relativo alla pressione fiscale: si stima che 125.000 contribuenti abbiano lasciato il sistema nazionale, segnalando un problema di competitività e attrattività del Paese.Il Piano Nazionale di Ripresa e Resilienza si avvicina a una fase critica, con soli sei mesi alla scadenza e risultati giudicati insufficienti rispetto agli obiettivi. Parallelamente, le nuove norme del TUF mirano a semplificare l'accesso ai mercati finanziari, rendendo più agevole la quotazione a Piazza Affari.Energia e GeopoliticaTestate: Corriere della Sera / Repubblica / Il Messaggero / Il Giornale / Libero / DomaniLa dimensione geopolitica si conferma il principale driver dei rischi economici. Lo Stretto di Hormuz rappresenta un punto critico per il commercio globale di energia: un'eventuale chiusura o escalation militare potrebbe determinare un forte aumento dei prezzi e una significativa instabilità delle supply chain.Il tema del gas russo resta centrale. Nonostante gli obiettivi di disimpegno, cresce la pressione per una revisione della strategia europea, soprattutto in vista delle scadenze post-2027.Sul fronte nucleare, le tensioni tra Stati Uniti e Iran – in particolare sul tema dell'arricchimento – contribuiscono ad aumentare l'incertezza sui mercati energetici. Inoltre, si prevedono effetti duraturi sui costi dello shipping, destinati a riflettersi su numerose filiere industriali.Lavoro e FormazioneTestate: Il Sole 24 Ore / Repubblica Affari&FinanzaIl mercato del lavoro mostra segnali contrastanti. Da un lato, si registra un forte incremento delle opportunità per lavoratori extra-UE, in particolare per gli ex stagionali, con alcune regioni – come il Veneto – a trainare la domanda.Dall'altro lato, persiste il fenomeno della fuga dei cervelli, che continua a indebolire il capitale umano del Paese. Le analisi convergono sulla necessità di rafforzare gli investimenti, soprattutto a favore delle PMI e dell'innovazione, per trattenere talenti e sostenere la crescita.Executive Takeaway• Geopolitica dominante: Hormuz e Iran rappresentano il principale rischio sistemico per energia, inflazione e stabilità dei mercati.• AI come leva strategica: mercato da 16,4 trilioni $, ma con forte concentrazione → serve posizionamento competitivo europeo.• Industria sotto pressione: costi energetici elevati continuano a comprimere margini e competitività.• Sistema fiscale fragile: misure tampone (115€) insufficienti; perdita di 125.000 contribuenti segnala criticità strutturali.• Europa lenta: governance e ritardi PNRR limitano la capacità di risposta → necessaria accelerazione su energia, capitali e innovazione

This week Sam discusses the Old Vine Registry reaching a new milestone, frost in France, a new category for Asti, Sula's purchase of a Moët Hennessy production facility in India, Georgia's new law requiring state approval for the establishment of vineyards, an EU–Australia trade deal and harvest and growing season updates from South Africa and Washington State. 30 March 2026 – This newscast states that, under the new free-trade agreement, Australian products labelled ‘Prosecco' will no longer be allowed to be sold to the EU. Australian ‘Prosecco' has not been allowed to be sold in the EU since the protection of the Prosecco GI within the EU, effective 2009. The new EU–Australia deal restricts exports of Australian ‘Prosecco' to any country.

WATCH THE EPISODE HEREIn this EpisodeHighlights & “Must-Listen” Moments* 0:00 — Welcome to the live, and a tech hiccup: We start strong (one minute early!) before Amy promptly drops off the call. Welcome to live television, folks.* 2:22 — Big announcement — we're moving to Wednesdays at noon ET: David (Fatty Daddy) is almost 66 and exhausted by late-night shows. Starting next week, Talking with My Mouth Full goes live every Wednesday at 12 noon Eastern. West Coasters, that's 9 a.m. Europeans, we see you, too.* 6:20 — Amy's sourdough report: The Miche: Amy's been baking her way through the King Arthur Big Book of Bread, and this week's loaf was a miche — a classic French whole-grain sourdough, deeply tangy, chewy, and wonderfully moisture-retaining. Her starter is named Lazarus (given to her by a pastry chef at The Alna Store in Maine), and the name fits.* 10:28 — David's food week: Lasagna Bianca and the Coca-Cola Brisket Aftermath: David finally had all the right cheeses (ordered from Caputo's) for his five-cheese lasagna bianca, with handmade noodles rolled to setting 6 or 7 — so thin you can see through them. (Marcella Hazan once wrote him to say that's exactly how it should be done.) He also confesses to eating an entire five-pound Coca-Cola brisket over the course of several days. No regrets.* 10:45 — The L. Reuteri Yogurt Rabbit Hole: Amy has gotten into making homemade yogurt using Lactobacillus reuteri, a culture promoted by Dr. William Davis (Wheat Belly) for its alleged gut-health and serotonin-boosting effects. The evidence: her sister-in-law went from tightly wound to noticeably chill. It's made with half-and-half and is genuinely delicious. Amy's verdict: she may have a delightful personality again.* 15:30 — ADHD confessions: David opens up about struggling to function without The One around — 269 unpublished posts sitting in his website backend, four photos from a shoot last June never uploaded, six holiday videos still in draft. Amy relates: She says she's somewhere on the spectrum, and got into a fight with Scott when she started raking leaves at 1 p.m. for a 2 p.m. departure. (She was ready by 2:05, for the record.) Audience members chimed in to share their own experiences.* 22:10 — Books We Love: Morning Baker by Roxana Jullapat: David shares his excitement about this upcoming baking book (drops April 7th), packed with gorgeous recipes from the author of Mother Grains. Donuts, French toast, and beautiful photography — this one earned a “must have the physical copy.”* 24:46 — Amy's Pick: A Kitchen on Goose Cove by Devin Finigan: Amy recommends this forthcoming cookbook from the chef of Aragosta restaurant in Maine, arriving later in April. The restaurant sits at the edge of an enchanted-forest cove overlooking the bay — and the food is just as stunning.* 27:18 — Amy's current read: Le Road Trip by Vivian Swift: A beautifully illustrated chronicle of a honeymoon road trip through France, with sections on Bordeaux's food and wine scene. Swift is an illustrator and writer, and Amy is captivated by the humanity of the hand-drawn work — especially in an AI-saturated moment.* 29:56 — Dorie's Anytime Cakes and the illustrated cookbook debate: David and Amy discuss the reactions to Dorie's latest book, which uses a photorealistic illustration style. Beautiful graphic design, but some readers found it less effective than photographs. The conversation leads to a broader point: in the age of AI perfection, people are gravitating toward the human, the imperfect, the messy, and real.* 33:20 — Product Spotlight: The Rose Levy Beranbaum Reduction Spatula: David finally retrieved it from the kitchen. It's a ThermoWorks product from her Signature Series — a long spatula with raised measurement markings so you can track a sauce as it reduces right in the pan, no pouring into a measuring cup required. You can also use it to check viscosity. David has been trying to show it on the show for three weeks. Worth every penny.* 35:46 — Also worth having: Lucinda Scala Quinn's Spurtles: Amy sings the praises of her spurtles — a cross between a spoon and a spatula, available in solid and slotted versions. Great for flipping pancakes, stirring risotto, and pretty much everything else. A quiet classic.* 37:09 — Food News: The 100-Year Oyster Promise Fulfilled: Wintzell's Oyster House in Mobile, Alabama, had a long-standing promotion: free oysters to any man 80 years old, accompanied by his father. In early 2026, 99-year-old James Rush finally walked in with his 80-year-old son Jimmy to claim it. This is the first time in nearly 100 years the promotion has been fulfilled.* 39:13 — The World's Best Cheese: The World Championship Cheese Contest recently crowned the Beemster Royaal Grand Cru — a 12-month-aged Gouda made by a cheesemaker with a Royal Warrant from the Netherlands — as best in show. The cows graze on seagrass near the ocean; the resulting milk delivers butterscotch and toasted almond notes. It is available at specialty cheese shops in the U.S.* 41:03 — Amy's personal favorite: Abbaye de Belloc: A butterscotch-nutty, alpine-style cheese from the Pyrénées in the Comté family, made by affineur Mons and sold at Formaggio Kitchen in Cambridge (which has an in-store aging cave and an online shop).* 43:07 — A love letter to Queijo Serra da Estrela: David raves about Portugal's greatest cheese — an oozy, thistle-rennet sheep's milk cheese from the Serra da Estrela mountains. He recalls a peak life moment at Quinta do Crasto in the Douro, when a nearly empty wheel arrived at the table, spaghetti swirled in the gooey inside with just black pepper. Nearly impossible to find properly aged in the U.S.* 48:35 — So long, and see you Wednesday at noon: Thank you for joining us. The Prosecco is gone, Amy is laughing, and we'll see you next Wednesday at 12 noon Eastern.Products We Love* Rose Levy Beranbaum's Reduction Spatula (ThermoWorks Signature Series) — A long spatula with raised measurement markings for tracking sauce reductions right in the pan. Also useful for checking viscosity. An absolute game-changer for anyone who reduces stocks, sauces, or caramels.* Lucinda Scala Quinn's Spurtles — A cross between a spoon and a spatula, available in solid and slotted versions. Great for stirring, flipping, and doing basically everything at the stove.Books and Publications* Morning Baker by Roxana Jullapat — A baking book dropping April 7th, from the author of Mother Grains* A Kitchen on Goose Cove by Devin Finigan — From the chef of Aragosta restaurant in Maine; coming May 19, 2026.* Le Road Trip by Vivian Swift — Illustrated travel memoir covering a honeymoon journey through France* Dorie's Anytime Cakes by Dorie Greenspan — Out now; photo-realistic illustration style sparked a lively debate* Wheat Belly by Dr. William Davis — The classic tome on eliminating wheat from your diet and whyRecipes* Sourdough Miche (French whole-grain sourdough)* Porridge Bread* L.

Fresh from their rather somber state-of-the-industry presentation, SipSource analysts Danny Brager and Dale Stratton help identify whether there are any areas of growth and promise in the wine and spirits business. Topics include: The performance of wine and spirits depletions in 2025 and the outlook for 2026. The surprising resilience of RTD growth rates. Prosecco's continuing strong performance. The wine industry trying more innovative marketing strategies. The importance of finding the right packaging formats. If consumers actually want low-alcohol products or if they want low-calorie and low-sugar products. Have a question, qualm, or story to tell?

JJ welcomes Sheila Donohue for a conversation that blends entrepreneurship, lifestyle, and the art of curated Italian wines and foods. Sheila shares how her company, Verovino, sources small-batch, farm-made wines, olive oils, and specialty foods—many not readily available in the U.S.—and delivers them to both consumers and businesses across America. In This Episode Meet Sheila in Bologna: Sheila shares her life in Bologna, Italy, where she's lived since 2001, and how Italy shaped her expertise and relationships with producers. What Verovino does: Verovino curates and imports authentic, sustainably made, small-batch products—primarily from Italy, plus select producers from other countries and California—selling B2B and direct-to-consumer. From fintech to food & wine: Sheila explains her background in financial technology (fintech), her sommelier training in Italy, and how her personal immersion in artisan food culture inspired the company. Starting from a "clean slate": In 2017, after major life changes, Sheila began building Verovino—funded through savings—and took early action by importing product and going door-to-door to find customers. How the business grows: Sheila emphasizes the importance of continuity (repeat business), building scale, and covering operating expenses. She explains how an omni-channel strategy helps stabilize the business: Distributors nationwide Wine stores & restaurants (especially in California) Direct-to-consumer shipping across the U.S. Corporate gifting & events Marketing & education that compounds: Verovino invests in education and storytelling through digital marketing—especially their blog and YouTube channel—to build long-term brand trust and demand. Product philosophy: As a sommelier-led team, Sheila curates for variety and distinction: reds, whites, rosés, orange wines, sparkling (dry and sweet), plus standout olive oils—including single-varietal olive oils with specific pairing profiles. Events as a growth engine: Sheila shares how tastings, fundraisers, private events, and collaborations introduce people to the products—because tasting creates appreciation and connection. Specialty foods: The conversation highlights a Piedmont hazelnut producer offering toasted hazelnuts, caramelized hazelnuts, hazelnut creams, pasta, and pestos—plus JJ's enthusiasm for pistachio cream and clean ingredients. Wine club & gifting: Sheila describes Verovino's monthly or quarterly wine club, curated shipments with insider notes and stories, and a growing trend of gifting memberships (including personalized letters). Gift sets: Verovino offers curated gift sets—popular in December—and a standout option that pairs wine + olive oil, plus expanded options for non-wine drinkers. A second brand line for broader appeal: To avoid being pigeonholed and to meet different market needs, Sheila shares how Verovino expanded into a separate line for more "recognizable" wines, including Prosecco and kegs—ideal for events and high-volume restaurant service. Advice for new producers: Sheila emphasizes the need to stand out in a crowded market—especially as the wine industry faces headwinds—and to clearly differentiate your product and message. Memorable Moments JJ connects her own journey as a winemaker (High Vibrational Wines) and discusses why she values small-batch, purpose-driven production over mass distribution. A fun community collaboration emerges: JJ invites Sheila to co-create a March event in Ojai with "Women Behind the Business: Real Conversations," potentially adding a wine tasting experience—and they discover their birthdays are both in March. Connect with Sheila / Verovino Website: Verovino.com YouTube: Vero Vino Instagram & Facebook: VeroVinoGusto Closing: JJ encourages listeners to explore Verovino for personal discovery, gifting, and creating meaningful food-and-wine experiences that bring "a taste of Italy" home.

In This Episode Meet Sheila in Bologna: Sheila shares her life in Bologna, Italy, where she's lived since 2001, and how Italy shaped her expertise and relationships with producers. What Verovino does: Verovino curates and imports authentic, sustainably made, small-batch products—primarily from Italy, plus select producers from other countries and California—selling B2B and direct-to-consumer. From fintech to food & wine: Sheila explains her background in financial technology (fintech), her sommelier training in Italy, and how her personal immersion in artisan food culture inspired the company. Starting from a "clean slate": In 2017, after major life changes, Sheila began building Verovino—funded through savings—and took early action by importing product and going door-to-door to find customers. How the business grows: Sheila emphasizes the importance of continuity (repeat business), building scale, and covering operating expenses. She explains how an omni-channel strategy helps stabilize the business: Distributors nationwide Wine stores & restaurants (especially in California) Direct-to-consumer shipping across the U.S. Corporate gifting & events Marketing & education that compounds: Verovino invests in education and storytelling through digital marketing—especially their blog and YouTube channel—to build long-term brand trust and demand. Product philosophy: As a sommelier-led team, Sheila curates for variety and distinction: reds, whites, rosés, orange wines, sparkling (dry and sweet), plus standout olive oils—including single-varietal olive oils with specific pairing profiles. Events as a growth engine: Sheila shares how tastings, fundraisers, private events, and collaborations introduce people to the products—because tasting creates appreciation and connection. Specialty foods: The conversation highlights a Piedmont hazelnut producer offering toasted hazelnuts, caramelized hazelnuts, hazelnut creams, pasta, and pestos—plus JJ's enthusiasm for pistachio cream and clean ingredients. Wine club & gifting: Sheila describes Verovino's monthly or quarterly wine club, curated shipments with insider notes and stories, and a growing trend of gifting memberships (including personalized letters). Gift sets: Verovino offers curated gift sets—popular in December—and a standout option that pairs wine + olive oil, plus expanded options for non-wine drinkers. A second brand line for broader appeal: To avoid being pigeonholed and to meet different market needs, Sheila shares how Verovino expanded into a separate line for more "recognizable" wines, including Prosecco and kegs—ideal for events and high-volume restaurant service. Advice for new producers: Sheila emphasizes the need to stand out in a crowded market—especially as the wine industry faces headwinds—and to clearly differentiate your product and message. Memorable Moments JJ connects her own journey as a winemaker (High Vibrational Wines) and discusses why she values small-batch, purpose-driven production over mass distribution. A fun community collaboration emerges: JJ invites Sheila to co-create a March event in Ojai with "Women Behind the Business: Real Conversations," potentially adding a wine tasting experience—and they discover their birthdays are both in March.
