Sipping with Sommeliers
by tom dean
While there are fantastic wine centered podcasts already out there, we aim to bring insight to the inner-workings of the 3 tier system. Retail store owners, Sommeliers, wine buyers, educators and more will be interviewed to paint the picture of how sales really work and what could be done to improve the system.

Francois Zelbat of Maison Ferrand and Plantation Rum

Three Blind Mice
Do scores matter? -NO To prove this daring theory I asked three of my friends that are studying to be Master Somms to blind taste the same 4 wines from the comfort of their quarantine. The overlap was immense and there were some huge differences in their deductions as well. They easily displayed...

Sipping with Shift Drink
If I work non-stop for the next 20 years and hit only green lights the whole way, someday I might be as cool as Ed Rudisell. His podcast "Shift Drink" is the embodiment of liquid cool and his ability to navigate nerdy subjects in the cocktail realm and make them fun is a skill set nobody else…

John Danley, Blind but Gorgeous
John Danley is tall, hunky, knows/ speaks more about New Zealand than most, is a great Somm and has a total Magnum P.I. stache. We recorded this as the news about Covid 19 was just coming out and at this point even though it is less than a month old it almost seems like it was a year ago that…

Predictions for the roaring 20s
Starting season two off a little late, my new co-host, Scott Zoccolillo (an advanced Sommelier) will be joining me as we blind taste our way through another year that has already been strife with tariffs, new trends, trends getting phased out (natty wine I'm looking at you) and much more.

Rombauer- A talk with Charlotte DeVilliers
Is it better or worse to be known and famous for one outstanding product when you make more than that? Does style trump substance? Should we even be thinking about these things instead of just enjoying some pretty delicious wine and letting hang-ups or stereotypes fade into the distance. You'll...

Long Meadow Ranch
The take away from all of this is that it can be done. While I realize my audience for this isn't every winemaker and vineyard owner in the world I wish in this instance that it was. This is how it should be done across the board, and more importantly it is how it has always been done at LMR.…

Sipping with Somms and Suppliers
Patrick "Pat", has been around (he has the grey hair to prove it). From spending time in Napa, New York, and Wilmington (twice) he certainly has gotten to know what works in wine from market to market. The thing I've always enjoyed about selling to, and tasting with, Pat has been his shoot from…
