Podcasts about Sommelier

Im gedimmten Keller der Hamburger Winebank hört man durch Katharina Iglesias eine komplett neue Weinsprache – lebendig, lebensfroh, klar. Es ist die Stimme einer Generation von Sommelièren, die mit dem Klischee der gestriegelten Weinhüter bricht und dennoch Wein schlichtweg durch und durch lebt. Katharina versucht nicht zu beeindrucken, sie will berühren. Sie ist da, um zu verbinden: Menschen, Momente, Essen und Trinken, Geschichten. Zwischen Glas und Gast entsteht eine neue Form des Dialogs – neugierig, empathisch, kenntnisreich und per Du. Diese Generation ist nicht geprägt von Prunk und Prestige, sondern von Präsenz. Klar kennt sie die großen Namen – aber was sie unterscheidet, ist die Art, wie sie darüber spricht. Katharina erzählt nicht von Lagen und Jahrgängen, um ihr Wissen zu zeigen. Sie erzählt, um ein Gefühl zu vermitteln – das einer Landschaft, einer Flasche, eines Abends mit Freunden. Die Weinkarte ist für sie kein Prüfungsbogen, sondern ein Einladungsschreiben: zum Genuss, zur Begegnung, zu einem kleinen Abenteuer in ihrer Winebank. Und ja – sie stellt Fragen, bevor sie Empfehlungen gibt. Katharina ist technisch brillant – das beweisen ihre Wettbewerbe. Doch ihr eigentliches Talent ist sozialer Natur. Sie spürt, wann Business gefragt ist – und wann es um Liebe geht. Sie hat einen Sinn für Lifestyle, aber keinen Hang zur Oberflächlichkeit. Katharina Iglesias verändert das Verständnis von Weinservice, weil sie versteht, dass Wein kein Statussymbol ist, sondern ein Kommunikationsmittel. Zwischen Generationen, über Zeiten hinweg, über Kulturen hinweg. Und sie beweist, dass auch das leiseste Glas den tiefsten Nachhall erzeugen kann.

Send us a textThis week on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, I'm joined by estate attorney and certified performance coach Ali Goff, who's not only brilliant but also shows up to legal talks in a T-shirt that says “Future Dead Person.” So you know we're going to have fun while talking about something that usually feels… well, kind of morbid.In this honest and surprisingly juicy convo, we're digging into trusts, wills, and the documents every adult needs—but most avoid until it's too late. I brought Ali on the show (and to our upcoming retreat in Salt Lake City

What were the key challenges and breakthroughs that shaped the BC and Ontario wine industries in the 1980s and 90s? What makes or breaks a new wine project, and why is finding the right vineyard often the most time-consuming step? What made Peter believe that Niagara-on-the-Lake could produce exceptional Chardonnay? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Ann Sperling & Peter Gamble. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Highlights What was Ann's best memory from growing up on the farm? When did Ann and Peter know that they wanted to work in the wine industry? How did Ann and Peter meet? What was the first bottle of wine Ann and Peter shared? How do Ann and Peter navigate their interwoven personal and professional lives? How do they negotiate professional disagreements, and who chooses the wine for dinner? What were the major challenges and opportunities in the BC and Ontario wine industry in the 1980s and 90s? In the early days, how did Peter envision the future of Ontario wines? What are some of the reasons certain vintages almost didn't make it into the bottle? What do you look for when considering a new project? What makes Ann and Peter different from the stereotypical flying winemakers? What were the signs that Niagara-on-the-Lake could produce exceptional Chardonnay? How has working on a small, focused vineyard impacted Ann and Peter's winemaking choices? Why must you suffer to make top-notch wines?   Key Takeaways It was in the early 80s in BC and maybe slightly before that in Ontario, that estate wineries became a thing. Prior to that, that meant there were a few really large wineries, not really making estate or single vineyards. Vineyards were a source of bulk wine for the most part. The hunt for the vineyard became a very important one. We looked at over 230 vineyards before we found one. I think everyone there was on the verge of giving up on this, thinking “Well, they're not really going to buy anything.” Because we'd get it to a certain stage, then we do soil analysis, and we weren't quite happy, or we talked to people who had made wine from the vineyard or something would come up, and we just wouldn't quite be where we wanted to be with the quality of the vineyard. I often work on the basis of paradigms, where I'll take a look at a wine sold throughout the world and say, you know, I think this could be done really well in this area. You know what it is you might be able to accomplish within the parameters that you have - the obvious things, the terroir, the exposures to soils, the temperatures in general.   About Ann Sperling & Peter Gamble Often referred to as the “power couple” of the Canadian wine industry, Peter Gamble and Ann Sperling have long pursued the pinnacles of wine quality in Canadian vineyards and wineries. Following her upbringing on her family's Okanagan Valley vineyard, Ann turned to the soil for the character and complexity of her wines. Acknowledged as a Canadian pioneer of organic and biodynamic viticulture, ‘terroir' was at the centre of her philosophy and she is renowned for her head winemaking roles at Malivoire, Southbrook, and Sperling Vineyards. Peter, a lifetime wine industry professional, has worked alongside Canada's most passionate winemakers to achieve greater heights with our finest appellation wines. Since 2000, Peter has provided expertise in ultra-premium winemaking operations, including: Stratus, Ravine, Benjamin Bridge and Lightfoot & Wolfville. With the purchase of a top-flight ancient Malbec planting in Mendoza, Argentina, in 2008, Ann and Peter broadened their winemaking activities, but Niagara remains their cherished home base. Current focus is on these Niagara projects: On Seven, Lailey and Stonebridge Vineyards and Dobbin Estate.         To learn more, visit https://www.nataliemaclean.com/342.

Bitte erlebt nur einmal Holger Schramm. Und Ihr erlebt einen Dirigenten der feinen Nuancen zwischen Mensch und Raum. Dann könnt ihr greifen, was man meint, wenn man einen Sommelier nicht als Page mit Weinkenntnissen tituliert, sondern als stillen Meister der Atmosphäre, ein Hüter des Weinmoments ansieht. Bei den Besten, wie Holger Schramm, ist sein Wesen unaufdringlich, aber unverkennbar präsent. Er tritt nie in den Vordergrund, doch ohne ihn wirkt der Abend wie ein Werk ohne Rahmen – egal ob im privaten Rahmen oder in einem stilvollen Restaurant. Und ja, Holgers Erscheinung ist makellos – visuell wie, das könnt Ihr beurteilen, akustisch –, nie aufdringlich und dennoch präsent. Holger Schramm ist ein unglaublicher Fachmensch mit einem tiefen Gespür für Timing, Takt und Temperament. Er ist kein Schwätzer, er spricht eher selten, doch wenn er spricht, dann mit Worten, die mehr tragen als Information: Rücksicht, Takt, Respekt – und oft mehr Gefühl als viele große Reden. Was ihn letztlich auszeichnet, ist seine Haltung zum Dienen: nicht unterwürfig, sondern aufrecht. Sein Wirken ist kein Handwerk, sondern ein leises Kunstwerk. Und – er weiß, was gebraucht wird, bevor es ausgesprochen wird. Nicht aus Hellseherei, sondern aus gelebter Empathie. Er liest Räume wie ein Meteorologe das Wetter, spürt Stimmungen, bevor sie kippen, balanciert mit einem Blick die fragile Architektur sozialer Gefüge aus – ob im Gespräch, beim Servieren eines Weins oder beim dezenten Zurücktreten im richtigen Moment. Seine Fachkenntnis ist gewaltig, aber nicht dominant. Er ist Gastgeber ohne Heim, Vertrauter ohne Nähe, Stimme ohne Lautstärke. Er denkt Sommelier in leisen Übergängen: Er merkt, wenn das Licht zu grell ist, der Wein zu warm, der Moment der Ansprache zu lang geworden. Er kennt den Rhythmus eines gelungenen Abends und weiß, wann man ihn beschleunigen oder abbremsen muss. Dabei nutzt er nicht die Mittel der Kontrolle, sondern die Kunst der Lenkung durch Vertrauen – ein Vertrauen, das auch durch Liebe zum Detail, durch gelebte Erfahrung und einen modernen Blick auf Beziehung entsteht. Holger Schramm verlässt den Raum, ohne dass man merkt, dass er gegangen ist – doch sobald er fehlt, spürt man, dass etwas nicht mehr ganz stimmt. Denn was er gibt, ist keine Dienstleistung. Es ist Präsenz, die trägt. Schweigen, das wärmt. Und eine Würde, die sich nicht in Worten erklären lässt, aber in jedem Detail fühlbar bleibt. Er ist, was viele gerne wären: ein perfekter Sommelier – geprägt durch Reisen, geprägt durch die Liebe zum Genuss, zur echten Begegnung, zum aufrichtigen Trinken, zum ehrlichen Essen und zur Tiefe im Miteinander. Eine gute Flasche Wein in seiner Hand wird nie zum bloßen Objekt, sondern zum stillen Symbol für all das, was im Zusammenspiel von Herz, Tradition, Business und Stil möglich ist – wenn man weiß, wie man Menschen berührt. Holger Schramm Restaurant Christophorus Porscheplatz 5 70435 Stuttgart Telefon: 07 11 9112 59 80 E-Mail: restaurant-christophorus@porsche.de Mit herzlichen Grußworten von: Bernhard Diers, Diers Kaffee Sternekoch und Wegbegleiter Renate Mildenberger Stammgäste und Freunde ------------------------------------- Diese Folge von SOMMELIER – Die interessantesten Mundschenke unserer Zeit wird begleitet von durch Silvio Nitzsche ausgewählte Weine aus dem Programm der Schlumberger Gruppe, zu der die Handelshäuser Schlumberger, Segnitz, Consigliovini und das Privatkundenportal Bremer Weinkolleg gehören. ------------------------------------- Sehr gerne empfehle ich die folgenden Weine: 2023 Mandus, Pietra Pura, Apulien, Italien Link für Geschäftskunden: https://is.gd/l1plPU Link für Privatkunden: https://is.gd/cMbIZw _____ It's not a SIN Himbeere & Gartenminze, Valckenberg, Rheinhessen, Deutschland Link für Geschäftskunden: https://is.gd/l1plPU Link für Privatkunden: https://is.gd/JMxD3A _____

Is a $400 wine really ten times better than a $40 one? Does the right glass really improve your wine and is it worth it when the size makes you look ridiculous? Why do wine labels matter and should the label's look be part of every wine review? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Charles Jennings and Paul Keers, co-authors of the hilarious book I Bought It So I'll Drink It. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Giveaway Three of you are going to win a copy of their terrific book,, I Bought It So I'll Drink It. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose three people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck! You can find the wines we discussed here.   Highlights Why do we feel guilty about window shopping when it comes to wine? What's the worst wine gadget or gimmick Paul and Charles have encountered? How did a 1947 Sauterne create a bond between Paul and a French wine seller? What was their most triumphant wine deal discovery? Are there elements that expensive wine delivers, that bargain wines can't? Why are Charles and Paul suspicious of mixed cases of wine? Has the quality and perception of box wines changed? What's the strangest vessel Paul and Charles have drunk wine from? What was it like drinking wine at 10 Downing Street and Lambeth Palace? What was Queen Victoria's tipple like? Why does Charles love drinking on his own? Which current wine trends will we look back on as ridiculous? Which wines would Charles and Paul now pair with their favourite childhood foods? Who would Paul and Charles love to share a bottle of wine with? Why should wine critics write about wine labels in their reviews?   Key Takeaways Charles and Paul believe there is a greater experience to be gained from drinking better wine, but that the return for your money plateaus quickly. If you go up from a £10 wine to a £30 wine, you will really notice the difference and have a tremendously greater experience. But then if you multiply that by 10 and go from £40 to £400, the difference in quality isn't that great. If I've got people around for dinner and I sit at the end of the table and everybody else has got normal wine glasses, I look like a complete plonker. And I'd love to sit there, “Oh, it's magnificent.” And they're going to think, what an idiot. So unfortunately, it doesn't get much use. It does enhance the taste of the Bordeaux, there's no doubt about it, but I'm so embarrassed sitting there drinking out of this thing the size of a melon that it really doesn't get much use. Charles and Paul mention wine labels because they think that they are ignored by most wine writers, and they're terribly important for two reasons. Firstly, because they're about the only marketing that most bottles of wine have, because we go into shops and that's all we can see, the labels. And second, if you're setting a table for dinner, you've invested in the table, in the dishware, the cutlery, the glasses to set up this beautiful thing. Why would you put a bottle of wine on the table - however it tastes - if it looks terrible? Wine critics should always say what the label looks like and whether it would look good on the table.   About Charles Jennings & Paul Keers Charles Jennings and Paul Keers are award-winning writers based in London, England. Charles and Paul co-authored the wine blog Sediment, described by New Statesman writer and Guardian literary critic Nick Lezard as “the finest wine blog available to humanity.” The blog became the basis for their book, I Bought It So I'll Drink It. Book-Prize-winning novelist Julian Barnes called it “The funniest wine-book I've read in a long time. Not just laugh-aloud funny but snortingly, choke-on-your-cornflakes funny – up there with Kingsley Amis and Jay McInerney.” Their book won the prestigious André Simon Award.         To learn more, visit https://www.nataliemaclean.com/341.

Thomas H. Heinicke ist schlichtweg ein absolut perfekter Gastgeber. Er ist kein Entertainer, kein Oberkellner, kein Organisator – er ist ein stiller Architekt von Atmosphäre. Nicht nur mit Worten, sondern mit Gesten und mit dem Quäntchen Herzlichkeit mehr, das man nicht beschreiben kann, sondern einfach erleben muss. Er weiß, dass die wahre Kunst des Empfangens nicht im Glanz des Arrangements liegt, sondern in der Fähigkeit, anderen ein Gefühl zu geben – ein Gefühl von Ankommen, von Wärme, von Verbindung. Es geht ihm nicht um Inszenierung, sondern um Beziehung, nicht um Business, sondern um Begegnung. Thomas H. Heinicke braucht keine Bühne, keinen Applaus, keine Eitelkeit. Alles, was er tut, geschieht mit einer Selbstverständlichkeit, die nicht auffällt, aber bleibt – wie ein exzellent geführtes Restaurant, in dem Wein, Essen und Trinken zu einem einzigen Moment des Genusses verschmelzen. Er erkennt Bedürfnisse, bevor sie ausgesprochen werden, aber er zwängt das Wissen darum nicht auf. Seine Präsenz ist leise, fast unmerklich – und gerade deshalb spürbar. Er stellt keine Weine vor – er lässt sie sprechen. Thomas lebt seine Weine, rezitiert keine Etiketten, sondern inszeniert mit Herz und Haltung Weingeschichten, in denen jede Flasche ein Kapitel ist. Ob traditionell vinifiziert oder modern interpretiert – was zählt, ist der Ausdruck, nicht der Stil. Er hört zu, wenn man schweigt, und erzählt, wenn man fragt – mal über einen Winzer, mal über eine Reise, mal über eine Begegnung. Er schafft Raum, ohne sich aufzudrängen, und lässt Nähe zu, ohne Intimität zu erzwingen. Seine Weinbar ist kein Ort, der beeindrucken will, sondern einer, der berührt. Ein Raum, der von Liebe zum Detail und einem tiefen Verständnis für Gastlichkeit lebt. Egal ob Weinfreak, Wanderer, Gourmet oder neugieriger Flaneur – hier entsteht eine Atmosphäre, in der Genuss nicht nur erlaubt, sondern erwünscht ist. Und in der das Trinken einer guten Flasche Wein mehr ist als ein Akt – es ist ein Statement für Haltung, für Gastfreundschaft, für ein Lebensgefühl. Wer Thomas H. Heinicke erlebt hat, spürt: Gastgeben ist keine Leistung, die sich in Geld bemessen lässt. Es ist eine Gabe, mit der er Lifestyle, Emotion und Identität miteinander verwebt – modern im Anspruch, traditionell im Wesen. Das ist keine Dienstleistung. Das ist eine Kunstform. Thomas H.

How does using everyday metaphors make wine writing more relatable? How has the pressure to be an expert in everything turned simple pleasures into social competition? Does buying your own wine versus getting free samples make you a better wine writer? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Charles Jennings and Paul Keers, co-authors of the hilarious book I Bought It So I'll Drink It. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Giveaway Three of you are going to win a copy of their terrific book,, I Bought It So I'll Drink It. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose three people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck! You can find the wines we discussed here.   Highlights How did Charles and Paul meet? What was the first bottle of wine they shared, and how did they realize they had the same approach to bad wine? What was it like to meet legendary wine critic Oz Clarke? When did Paul and Charles discover their love for writing? What were Charles and Paul's best and worst moments in their writing careers? How did their Sediment blog create a stir with the PR people in the wine industry? Where did the title “I Bought It So I'll Drink It” come from? Did buying their own wines give them a different perspective than other wine writers who are given promotional bottles? How did the collaborative approach to writing I Bought It So I'll Drink It work? Which writers have influenced Charles and Paul's writing? Is the tension between wine snobbery and enjoyment unique to wine? What was the most pretentious wine moment Paul and Charles witnessed? How did Charles and Paul develop their distinctive vocabularies for describing wines? Which overused wine descriptors do they find cringy? What's changed about wine criticism or writing since they published their book?   Key Takeaways Charles and Paul explain that they drew their descriptions from real life. There's a tendency in wine writing to use metaphors that you wouldn't necessarily experience. I mean, I've got a cat, but I really wouldn't use the term cat's pee in describing any wine. I don't know what cat's pee actually tastes like. Whereas if I talk about wine smelling of ink, well, people know what ink smells like, and it seemed more appropriate to use ink as an analogy. The authors say that everybody has to be a bit of an expert about everything these days. It's not just a question of, “Oh, we've been to France, we've gone to Italy, we've made it to the United States,” or something like that. It's how you did it, and where you stayed, and what you did, and what tours you went on, and it's so full of itself. Then it becomes a transaction when talking with friends. As Charles and Paul think the fact that they did buy thei wine is quite fundamental to a difference between Sediment and other wine writing. They had to do the same thing, go out and buy it. Maybe that gave us a slightly different slant on wine buying and drinking as well.   About Charles Jennings & Paul Keers Charles Jennings and Paul Keers are award-winning writers based in London, England. Charles and Paul co-authored the wine blog Sediment, described by New Statesman writer and Guardian literary critic Nick Lezard as “the finest wine blog available to humanity.” The blog became the basis for their book, I Bought It So I'll Drink It. Book-Prize-winning novelist Julian Barnes called it “The funniest wine-book I've read in a long time.

How does biodynamic farming transform a vineyard into a thriving, interconnected ecosystem? What do wild orchids reveal about the health of a vineyard? How do France's preschool lunches help to create a nation of gourmets? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Caro Feely, author of the terrific memoir Grape Expectations: A Family's Vineyard Adventure in France.   You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Giveaway Three of you are going to win a copy of her terrific book, Grape Adventures. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose three people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck!   Highlights How did Caro's daughter's medical emergency shape her perspective on risk? Why did Caro feel like a bad mom in the early years of the winery? How has living in France influenced Caro's approach to food and wine? When did Caro realize the wine business was becoming financially viable? What are some of the most interesting aspects of biodynamics? What's the significance of wild orchids in a vineyard? Which wine would Caro pair with her favourite childhood food, marmalade on toast? Why would Caro want to share a bottle of wine with Al Gore?   Key Takeaways As Caro explains, often biodynamics is just picked on as a woo woo, but really, it's about listening to your land and being present. Biodynamics is organics, plus. It's essentially three things: It's working with plant and animal-based sprays to keep the vineyard healthy, using the biodynamic calendar to do things at the right moment. It's about listening to what's going on in the sky. We all notice the sun, but all the other bodies in the sky also have an impact. Lunatic comes from the fact that the moon does have an effect on us. The final thing is to think of your farm as a whole farm system as a living thing where everything is connected. We can't just look at the vine on its own, like a unit of production. It is a living thing, and it is a vibrant living environment. Caro says that when they bought the farm in 2005, it was conventionally farmed. They started organic farming and in 2008 the wild orchids came back. The systemic fungicides had worked their way out of the soil. Essentially, our soil health was coming back. The mycorrhizae, the fungi growing symbiotically with the roots of the vine, helps them to extend their network, to get more nutrients. However, mycorrhizae will not be there if you're using systemic fungicides. Caro loves France's respect for food and for taking time to enjoy it. There's a tradition in the country where everybody, no matter what they do, is somewhat of a gourmet and knows about food and wine. She thinks it does go back to schools with their three-course lunch when they're two and a half at preschool.   About Caro Feely Caro Feely is a writer, yoga teacher, wine educator and organic farmer. She leads authentic, personalized and educative wine tours, wine courses, walking tours and yoga retreats near Bordeaux in France.

In S5Ep5 of the PRP, Adam prattles with blossoming long distance runners, local food & agriculture champions, community cultivators and proud park-hopping pals Meg Goldwyn & Laura Matney, who have been preparing for the Glass City Half Marathon on Sunday April 27th, 2025. Tap in to learn how two remarkable human beings are leveraging their passion for fresh produce & funky vibes to build a healthier, more connected Ann Arbor. Meg—Argus Café Store Manager and certified dog mom of the decade is newer to the sport but fully aboard the endorphin express. Laura, General Manager at Argus Farm Stop and lifelong endurance adventurer with a flair for fungi, brings years of grit and community organizing insight to the convo. The squad unpacks how Argus Farm Stop's unique model supports local farmers, feeds neighbors, and keeps the lights on (literally) in a way that blends business, service, and sustainability into one delicious, community-enhancing mission. But it's not just about the veggies—it's about the vision. At the heart of it all is a guiding question: “How does what we do every day serve the local food economy?”Things get vulnerable when the duo deep dives on the power of shared knowledge—how pulling back the curtain on their systems, lessons, and even missteps can spark change across the local & national food landscape. Whether it's telling tales at a farm stop conference, spreading the gospel of pawpaws, or dropping hot tips on turning smoothies into waffles (yes, that's a thing), Meg & Laura live to connect dots and people alike. From park bagging all 162 green spaces in Ann Arbor to gap-trail biking and glacial terrain escapades, this lovely duo reminds us that movement and nourishment go hand in hand—and that the spiritual symbiosis of running, food, and community might just be the perfect fuel to keep us joyful, curious, and snack-happy as we traverse through this wild ride called life.What's in tarnation is an L3C?

In this week's edition of the Flavors of Northwest Arkansas podcast we're taking a bit of a left turn as we're heading out to the Rogers Farmer's Market where we had a bit of a roundtable, and we'll get to that, BUT FIRST??? (*FOOD NEWS*) Pesto's By Lance closed yesterday. We'll hear from Lance. Both Renzo's locations also close, but it might just be temporary Taqueria Lucha opened on Dickson Street last week The Apartment 7 Bar has opened in the space formerly known as WineU on 15th Street across the street from Baum-Walker Stadium in Fayetteville. There is now a Rudy's BBQ in Fayetteville Local Ice Cream is joining he Brick City Shops at Evelyn Hills Mermaids in Rogers is opening soon. VERY soon. France's top Sommelier will be in Springdale at the end of the month! A local bartender competes against the top 30 in the nation We'll hear about the new restaurant & bar at the New AC Hotel in Bentonville The Bentonville Brewing Company turns 10! Of course, we're in Farmer's Market Season here, and it's a serious time of year for those that run them, and those that have booths. The Rogers Farmer's Market got displaced by the tornado last year, but they've come back strong. Owner/operator Grant Wise took it over last year from his mother, carrying on the family tradition. But with that came new ideas, new marketing AND a new location – a very different one that's paying off early... We hear from Grant, and two local vendors that basically plan their whole week around people “shoppin the shade.” If you don't know what that means, you will shortly, right here on the Flavors of Northwest Arkansas...

What makes vine growing and winemaking so physically demanding? What are the hidden dangers of winemaking that most wine lovers never hear about? Why are some winemakers choosing to label their wines as Vin de France rather than follow strict appellation rules? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Caro Feely You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Giveaway Three of you are going to win a copy of her terrific book, Grape Adventures. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose three people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck!   Highlights How did Oprah Winfrey influence Caro and her husband to follow their dream of owning a vineyard in France? What was behind the decision to leave their corporate jobs for winemaking, which was such a different career? Why did Caro choose Bordeaux and Saussignac in particular? What were the main criteria that Caro and her husband sought when choosing a vineyard? Were there any transferable skills from the corporate IT world that were helpful in running a winery? What was the most surprising hurdle Caro and her husband had to overcome to buy their winery? How does Caro handle the tension between making wines she believes in versus what will pass official approvals or market trends? Why did Chateau Feely want to be classified as Vin De France? How physically demanding is winemaking? What are some of the funniest and most surprising animal-related episodes that have happened at the winery?   Key Takeaways As Caro explains it involves heavy machinery, tractors, attaching things to tractors, moving heavy pipes and other equipment around. Even hand picking grapes is a fairly active sport. Removing the vine shoots or suckers at the base of the vine is a big job and backbreaking. They don't want them to grow because they take nutrients from the grapes. Caro says that many wine lovers don't realize how dangerous winemaking is. There are four killers of wine makers. The first one was asphyxiation by CO2. In the fermentation, CO2 is created. If you don't have a way for it to get out of the closed spaces, you're going to get asphyxiated. The second one is falling from height particularly if a little bit of CO2 has escaped and made you a little lightheaded. The next one is machinery, so horrific things like falling into a harvest trailer. Electrocution because you're working with liquids and high electricity. Caro says that almost all of her wines are labelled Vin de France because she felt that so many of the appellation rules were not about the quality of the wine. She wanted to be free of those unnecessary constraints. For example, one biodynamic winemaker got kicked out of the appellation system because he had weeds under his vines. He handpicks his grapes so it actually doesn't matter if they're weeds under the vines. If you machine pick, the machine will kind of suck up the weeds. Caro would much rather have some weeds than have to use synthetic weed killer. Even when it comes to Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé and Premier Grand Cru Classé, some growers got more appellation points for having a parking lot for tour guests than they received for being certified organic.   About Caro Feely Caro Feely is a writer, yoga teacher, wine educator and organic farmer.

Nuestro bibliotecario Antonio Martínez Asensio nos habla de libros con los tonos, sabores y olores del vino en una cata literaria única en Calahorra (La Rioja). Hay novelas, como los vinos, gran reserva, reserva, crianza o joven. También retronasales,  con bouquet especiado, aromas florales o con cuerpo.  Ha sido una cata de 12 libros que paso a enumerar:GRANDES RESERVAS. 1.- 'La verdad sobre el caso savolta" de Eduardo Mendoza (Seix Barral) .Este libro tiene un color turbio, se aprecian partículas en suspensión, que se van a ir posando según avance la novela. Olfativamente, el aroma es amplio, complejo, con muchos matices.El Bouquet, que son los aromas complejos y desarrollados con la edad, es especiado. Y el gusto es muy intenso en nariz y en paladar, alegre, fresco, y a veces agresivo. 2.-'Cuentos y prosas breves' de Katerine Mansfield (Páginas de Espuma) Este libro en cambio tiene un color brillante, luminoso. Olfativamente, el aroma es floral, con matices del sur, muy del sur, porque la autora era Neozelandesa. Y el Bouquet también es especiado, pero con especias raras, como la pimienta de Tasmania o la baya de Kakadu.Y el gusto es aterciopelado, que es lo contrario, en vino, de suave y agradable. Austero a veces, pero en general con cuerpo.3.-'Justine' de Lawrence Durrell (Edhasa)“Justine”, a la vista es un libro color teja, como son los vinos tintos maduros. Es un libro carnoso, o sea con cuerpo y de sabores ricos. Bueno de hecho tiene muchos cuerpos y en muchas escenas están desnudos. Tiene un sabor mineral porque tiene notas de piedra, tiza, salinidad. Sobre todo sabe a polvo, al polvo de Alejandría que lo empapa todo y todo lo tiñe.Cuando lo pruebas es afrutado pero intenso, divertido, profundo, alegre y sin embargo a ratos es astringente, como es el vino cuando los taninos hacen que sientas sequedad tras el sorbo.Es un libro bellísimo hasta el dolor. Un libro con el que te puedes emborrachar.RESERVAS.4.-'Olvidado rey Gudú' de Ana María matute (Destino) Olfativamente, es expresivo, o sea que muestra claramente sus características. Es un vino carnoso y avanzado, o sea que es más maduro de lo que se esperaba. Porque este libro se ha leído como literatura fantástica y hasta juvenil y tiene mucho más. Y el gusto es aterciopelado, que es lo contrario, en vino, de suave y agradable. Austero, que en vino quiere decir que está lleno de sabores pero es amargo y ácido a la vez.5.-Tres novelas analógicas' de Sergi Pámies (Anagrama) Estas tres novelas son, a la vista, de color púrpura, que en vino quiere decir que tiene tonos azulados, que el caso de Sergi Pàmies vira a azulgrana, claro (el Barça le otorgó el premio Vázquez Montalbán de Periodismo Deportivo).   Olfativamente, es volátil, que quiere decir que tiene una ácidez que se percibe en nariz, pero es que claro, el humor de Pàmies es así, muy ácido.  Y el gusto es vivaz, o sea, ligeramente ácido pero agradable, tierno, inteligente, y fresco, o sea positivo en jóvenes.6.-'De cuerpo presente' de Bob Pop (La Uña Rota). Este poemario es, a la vista, delicado, múltiple, esencial. Si lo hueles tiene matices de acerbo, o sea áspero, pero no, lo que pasa es que es cerrado, que quiere decir que no expresa los aromas a la primera, que hay que dejarlo respirar. Su sabor es nervioso y noble, pero enseguida estalla en sabor a miel, madera y a veces algo salado, será por las lágrimas, de un lado u otro del papel. Termina siendo sedoso y hasta terroso.CRIANZAS7.-'Poeta chileno' de Alejandro Zambra (Anagrama)  “Poeta chileno” engaña a la vista. Parece claro, pero termina siendo opaco. Parece pajizo, esos vinos de colores muy claros, pero según avanza la novela va pasando a ser más turbio, hasta que terminamos viendo todas las partículas en suspensión.  Si lo hueles tiene notas frutales, sobre todo de Chile, cerezas, arándanos, uvas y kiwis. También huele de forma penetrante, intenso, y es que es entero, que en una cata quiere decir que

Why is Rosé the go-to wine for celebrity-owned brands rather than Chardonnay or Cabernet? Why are the younger generations of wine drinkers choosing Rosé over red? Is the Rosé boom just a trend, or is its popularity here to stay? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Rasmus Emborg & Jens Honoré, who co-published the Rose Revolution. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Highlights What are the main differences between wines from Domaine Tempier and Domaine Ott? What makes some Rosé wines better for aging than others? How did Gerard Bertrand's background influence his winemaking style? Which Provençal cuisine dishes pair best with the Rosé wines? Why do so many celebrities who come to the wine world choose to make Rosé? Which celebrity wines are worth buying? How has social media impacted the Rosé Revolution? What does the future look like for Rosé's popularity? Why have more men started drinking Rosé? Which wine regions should wine lovers visit to immerse themselves in the world of Rosé?   Key Takeaways Why is Rosé the go-to wine for celebrity-owned brands rather than Chardonnay or Cabernet? As Rasmus and Jens explain, Rosé is much easier to embrace for a broad audience. Rosé has a lot of lovers, but they don't have any enemies. So you can be a serious musician, a rocker, a pop star, and embrace Rosé. When you're just a celebrity and not a winemaker it's way more bankable and easier to market. We tried a lot of those wines and I'll tell you, some of them are pretty good, big bang for the buck. Brad Pitt, John Legend, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jon Bon Jovi, Cameron Diaz and Kylie Minogue Why are the younger generations of wine drinkers choosing Rosé over red? Rasmus and Jens observe that young people don't drink much red wine, but they drink a lot of white wine and Rosé because it's kind of like a celebratory wine. It's become a wine you kind of gather around. You don't disagree about it. You can't be talked down to if you don't know the terroir, the grapes etc. If it's endorsed by a rapper or rock music or whatever, it enhances that experience. Is the Rosé boom just a trend or is its popularity here to stay? Rasmus and Jens believe that Rosé has established itself as a third wine category. We'll still see the quality improve and higher price points. In France, 3 out of 10 bottles are Rosé, globally, it's about one out of 10. They are seeing a trend of Rosé taking market share from red wine whereas white wine is stable.   About Rasmus Emborg & Jens Honoré Rasmus Emborg is a journalist who has worked in the media industry for over 25 years. He is the author of Beer Brothers (2019), about twin beer brewers Mikkel Borg-Bjergsø and Jeppe Jarnit-Bjergsø. He and his wife own a small vineyard in Provence. The grapes are mainly used for rosé wine, and the production takes place at a local cooperative. Jens Honoré is a photographer who has worked in the advertising industry for 30 years. In 2018, he published A Place to Dream for SOS Children's Villages, and in partnership with Jens Vilstrup, he published the book, Farewell to a Black/White World about the UN's 2015 Sustainable Development Goals. He has also contributed to Building a Dream about LEGO owner Kjeld Kirks Kristiansen's realization of LEGO House. In 2021, he published The Right to Food about homeless people's relationship with food. Jens lives in New York and as a wine enthusiast, has followed the trend of increasing enthusiasm for rosé wine with great interest.         To learn more, visit https://www.nataliemaclean.com/337.

How did Rosé get a bad reputation as not being a “real” wine? How did Marcel Ott revolutionize the world of Rosé wine? Why is Grenache a popular grape for making trendy pale Rosés? How do Rosé's beautiful bottles both help and hurt its reputation? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Rasmus Emborg and Jens Honoré, the author and photographer, respectively, who have published Rosé Revolution. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Highlights How did Jens and Rasmus develop a love for Rosé? What does Rasmus find most satisfying about owning a vineyard? Why did Jens and Rasmus want to produce their book independently? Why did Jens choose to photograph the winemakers in black and white, using an analog camera? What was the most challenging aspect of writing Rosé Revolution? Why was Marcel Ott's pioneering decision to treat Rosé as a wine in its own right so radical in 1912? Why did Rosé have such a bad reputation? What makes Grenache such a good grape to make Rosé? Are there benefits to the shape of the iconic Domain Ott bottles? What are some of the wildest bottle Rosé designs Jens found in researching Rosé Revolution? Why does Rasmus believe we'll see more Rosé being sold in brown bottles in the future? What role do ultra-premium Rosés play in the market? Beyond great quality, what factors have made Whispering Angel so successful?   Key Takeaways Rosé wine is made from red wine grapes, and it's the skin that gives color and tannin to the wine. If you let the wine ferment with the skin, you end up with a red wine. Rosé wine was produced as an afterthought, rather than with the intention to make it. This is part of why Rosé has had a bad reputation because it's been considered a byproduct. Marcel Ott was fascinated by Rosé wine because he thought that this was a wine that had the taste of the grapes most precisely. Marcel Ott was the first one to choose the variety of grapes that gave the best Rosé, to position the vineyards in the best possible way to make good Rosé and to choose the harvest time with the ambition to make the best possible Rosé. Grenache is a grape with thin skins and very little pigment so it brings little color to the wine. This is the kind of Rosé wine that is the most trendy these years. It's pale, dry, crisp wine, what we call the Provence style. But also, Grenache has this natural sweetness that applies well to the Rosé wine category as well. Rosé, with its beautiful colour in a transparent, creatively designed bottle, looks great on the shelves in the liquor store. It looks good on Instagram. And I think this is a part of the popularity of Rosé. At the same time, it's also a reason why the bad reputation of Rosé wine remains with some of the wine establishment. At the same time, it's much easier to recycle brown glass than clear glass.   About Rasmus Emborg & Jens Honoré Rasmus Emborg is a journalist who has worked in the media industry for over 25 years.

From the gridiron to the vineyard, Will Blackmon is redefining what it means to build a second act rooted in authenticity and excellence. Dubbed the “NFL Wine Guy,” he's on a mission to make wine more approachable, inclusive, and unforgettable. That philosophy drives every facet of his brand, from curated experiences through his concierge service, The Wine MVP, to the debut of his Blackmon Cellars Napa Valley Red Blend. On this episode of Brand Slam, hosts Joe Kayata and Mary Sadlier explore Will's journey from professional athlete to wine entrepreneur. He shares how a curiosity sparked during his NFL days evolved into a credentialed passion grounded in education, expertise and a desire to bridge the gap between luxury wine and everyday consumers. He also opens up about the challenges of life after football and the importance of intentional reinvention. Will isn't just putting his name on a bottle. With training from the Court of Master Sommeliers and multiple certifications, he's earned real credibility in the wine world. For him, mastering the craft was essential to building trust and creating something with staying power. The Wine MVP started as a way to help athletes and professionals explore wine without pressure or pretense. With Blackmon Cellars, he's now producing his own wine, a natural progression for someone who values connection, hospitality and excellence in every pour.  For Will, success off the field means finding purpose, staying curious and putting in the work—just like he did on every game day.

Why are major Champagne houses, like Taittinger and Pommery, spending millions of dollars to buy and plant vineyards in England? How did Brexit reshape the English wine industry, from barrels to picking grapes? Why does visiting the English wine country feel like uncovering a hidden secret? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Henry Jeffreys, author of Vines in a Cold Climate. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Giveaway Three of you are going to win a copy of his terrific book, Vines in a Cold Climate. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose three people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck!   Highlights Is England's greatest wine yet to be discovered? What makes Peter Hall of Breaky Bottom such a memorable and inspirational person? What is it like to visit English wine regions as a tourist? How can you make the most out of a trip to London as a wine lover? What was the most surprising historical tidbit about English wine that Henry uncovered while researching? Which significant milestones have signalled the improved quality of English wine in the past 20 years? What makes English winemakers different from those from other regions? If English wine is such a precarious venture, why have champagne houses like Tattinger and Pommery chosen to plant in England? How did Brexit impact English winemakers? What's the biggest risk to the English wine industry?   Key Takeaways Henry observes that Champagne is warming up and the concern is that eventually the grapes might not have enough acidity, so they're hedging their bets. He also thinks they are entrepreneurial. If you could bring your expertise and get it to work and make a great, great wine - which is what they're interested in - then, why not? Brexit had a big impact on the English wine industry. There was a hell of a lot of upheaval, but I think generally the industry has adjusted and worked out how they can bring things in. The cost, obviously, has gone into the wines, and we probably have to pay more. But I think all the problems have already been dealt with. It's all kind of factored in. Southern England, especially in the spring and summer, Henry says, is breathtakingly beautiful in a way that no other country is. There are beautiful little villages and hills and churches. It can be quite incongruous sometimes seeing the vines, especially if on a cold day when you'd expect to see horses and apple trees. Wine tourism is quite in its infancy at the moment, but it's coming on strongly. A lot of wineries have realized that you can sell tourists wine without anyone taking a cut. So they're beginning to take it a lot more seriously… have restaurants on site, really good tour guides. The potential is massive because most of the vineyards are within an hour and a half of London.   About Henry Jeffreys Henry Jeffreys worked in the wine trade and publishing before becoming a writer.

Is chalky soil really the secret to great English wine—or just clever marketing? What makes it so difficult for English wine to break into the North American market? Is it time for a classified system of English wine? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Henry Jeffreys, author of the award-winning book Vines in a Cold Climate. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Giveaway Three of you are going to win a copy of his terrific book, Vines in a Cold Climate. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose three people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck!   Highlights How did Henry become a wine critic for The Lady, a women's magazine? What was it light to interview wine pioneer Stuart Moss? How did Henry's skepticism about biodynamics nearly cause a problem with Gérard Bertrand? What inspired Henry to write Empire of Booze? What was the most surprising thing Henry learned while researching the book? How did Henry's first experience of English wine go? What unusual vineyard experience totally changed his perception? How much wine does England produce? Where are the main wine regions in England? Are the benefits of the chalky soils in certain parts of England overrated? Is it time for a classified system of English wine?   Key Takeaways We always hear about the chalk or the White Cliffs of Dover. Do you think that has an influence or is it overrated? Henry thinks it is overrated and it was the story that sold. It was a good marketing angle, and they thought that it was the best place. He thinks almost everything else is more important than whether it's chalk or clay, and once you've got everything else right, then you can argue about that. Henry observes that selling to Canada and the US is quite complicated. If you sell to Japan, you can get just one person to import it. Whereas in North America you have complicated systems by state and province. You need somebody on the ground selling. Plus, Nova Scotia makes a similar style of sparkling wines. California has some pretty good sparkling wines. And then once the English bubblies land in the market, the price is pretty much the same as Champagne. Why would you unless you wanted something quite unusual, right? Henry says that there is now a PDO, or Protected Designation of Origin, a European geographical indication for one county, which is Sussex. But it's really too early for it, because they've only been making quality wine there for 30 years. The appellation contrôlée is, ideally, codifying hundreds of years of tradition. Plus, a lot of producers buy from different counties. So Nyetimber will have vineyards in Kent and Sussex and Hampshire. So that makes a nonsense of it. And also, there's sort of bits of Sussex that are very much like Kent, so you so there's no point drawing a line where the old county barrier is. It's like, it'd be like, sort of cutting the Médoc in half. It doesn't really make any sense. I think the only place where it makes sense is Essex, because you've got the soil.   About Henry Jeffreys Henry Jeffreys worked in the wine trade and publishing before becoming a writer.
