Unfiltered Ep 11 Some Skin Contact

This is the episode of genuine focus. We are joined by Head Sommelier Antonio Palmarini who comes from the Abruzzo region in Italy. Learn all about the region, the grapes ( oh there are so many grapes ), the struggles and where Abruzzo is heading. We taste some absolutely cracking wines: Collepietro Passarina 2016 by Faraone  (exactly! What?), and two Montepulciano d’Abruzzos, one which is made entirely naturally: Senzaniente and the other 2013 by the legendary producer Emidio Pepe. Somehow we still managed to squeeze in the typical nonsense. Jonathan gets very opinionated about religion and the use of donations towards Notre Dame. On a lighter side, he is shamelessly plugging his new project: Sommelier socks! Who wants some? So sit back with a glass of wine and enjoy your first real wine nerdy episode.
