Episode 270: Grapes of Wrath ft. Sari Khoury of Philokalia

*** THE LAST DAY TO SIGN UP FOR DISGORGEOUS WINE CLUB IS FEB 29 PLEASE DO SO @ Copakewineworks.com/disgorgeous ****  Hey all! This is what the bonus episodes on the Patreon are like, but there's no way we're gatekeeping this one. Sari Khoury is the winemaker behind the stellar Philokalia wines in the Occupied West Bank, and John was lucky enough to snag a long interview about winemaking under occupation, artistry, different kinds of resistance, cultural memory and the legacy of Islam on European wine culture. Sari, in addition to being wildly smart, is one of the most compelling winemakers we've had the pleasure to taste, so, uh seek out his wines whenever and wherever you can.  Also, and this is just our opinion : Keep fucking talking about Palestine and pressure everyone you can to end this genocide.
