Betcha Can Can! Drink Ramona Founder, Jordan Salcito, Explains How Boundaries Bring Out the Best.

MJ’s guest this week is Jordan Salcito. Jordan is a sommelier and was manager at Eleven Madison Park. Her wine program at Momofuku had been named a James Beard Foundation semifinalist multiple times. In 2017 it was awarded “Most Original Wine List in the World” from World Of Fine Wine. She is the host of the podcast “Opening Up with Jordan Salcito”. Jordan is the Founder of RAMONA, an organic Italian wine spritz that can be delivered by the can right to your door. Jordan and MJ discuss her experience at the Court of Master Sommelier and how the service exam ultimately changed her career trajectory. They also discuss the differences between bio dynamic and natural wines and how the limits of space (the original Momofuku) and boundaries within the restaurant business brought about her award winning wine list and her next career move, founding Drink Ramona. A huge thank you to Jordan SalcitoFollow her on IG @jordansalcitoAnd please do yourself a favor and try her delicious Italian wine spritzers at www.drinkramona.com *Our personal favorites are the Blood Orange and Meyer Lemon. Give a listen and some love to her podcast “Opening Up with Jordan Salcito” wherever you listen to podcasts. This episode’s in studio wine:Chacra, Patagonia.Cincuenta Y CincoPinot Noir 2019 ______________________________________________________________Until next time, cheers to the Mavericks, philosophers, deep thinkers and wine drinkers! Don’t forget to subscribe and be sure to give The Black Wine Guy Experience a five-star review on whichever platform you listen to.For insider info from MJ and exclusive content from the show sign up at Blackwineguy.comFollow MJ @blackwineguy  Thank you to our sponsor Wine Spies!
