Gnothi Wine School
by OCDevel LLC
The scripts and voices for this show are made with AI. It teaches wine from the first sip to an intermediate level, with Oregon's Willamette Valley as home ground. The course starts with tasting, so you can describe a wine's structure and recognize a faulty bottle. It then follows the grape from vineyard to bottle and moves on to sparkling and other special styles, the major grapes, labels and the laws behind them, storing, serving and pairing wine with food, the world's wine regions, and how wine is bought and sold. Each lesson comes back to the valley's hills, winds, soils and Pinot noir, and to Ricochet Wine Co., the small McMinnville winery the course is taught through. Every episode invites you to visit Ricochet in McMinnville, booked at ricochetwine.com, and try that lesson on its wines. Shorter segments follow the valley's harvests and news through the year. The winery belongs to a friend of the show's creator, and the show receives no payment for featuring it. For listeners 21
