Niepoort and the New Portugal
Exploring Niepoort’s Portuguese dry wine, their love of indigenous grapes, and the future of a wine powerhouse. Mention Portuguese wine, and most enthusiasts today will nod knowingly — Vinho Verde for crisp whites, Alentejo for bold reds, Dão and Bairrada for structure and ageability. Portugal has long shaken off its one-dimensional “Port-only” image. But how did this transformation happen? One of the most fascinating ways to trace Portugal’s wine renaissance is through the impressive evolution of one of its historic Port houses: Niepoort. Over the past three decades, Niepoort has risen from a respected producer of traditional fortified wines into one of the country’s most admired names in dry, table wines. Their story, from early risks, to region-hopping, championing indigenous grapes, and a dogged pursuit of freshness, mirrors the broader shift that has propelled Portugal to new heights in recent years. From Port to Portugal’s Wine Vanguard Founded in 1842, Niepoort was long respecte
podcast· 1h 11m· S8E4Why 3-Star Michelin Restaurants Suck! on The Real Wine Show (S8E4)
Serious boss ladies get into it with Paper Bottles, Fake Wine Trains, and why stickies rule, plus a grenache-to-lamb pairing on The Real Wine Show (S8E4) Special thanks to our sponsor Gabriel Group (gabrielgrp.com) for helping us make another great episode! The show opens with intros to panelists Elisa Weber-Saintin (Little Guy Wine Company, celebrating 19 years; critic of predictable three-Michelin-star dining), Anna Nolan (Russian-born sommelier and co-owner of Vino and Vibes in Utica, aiming to “un-snob” wine), and Kristen Jonna (Michigan wine family royalty and owner of Vinology in Ann Arbor; she follows the moon!). In news debates, they discuss the viability of low-carbon “Frugal Pack” cardboard bottles versus glass, and a (fake) story about Japan’s underground wine trains, prompting talk of Michigan wine trains. Glass checks feature wines including Los Malditos Tempranillo, a Cremant de Loire sparkling wine, and a Slovenian pét-nat. The Wine Cipher note matches Château d’Yquem. O

podcast· 52:16· S1E215Experts Loved the $50 Oregon Pinot Noir. We Chose the $23 Bottle!
After more than 200 episodes, we are doing something we have never done before. We are doing a head-to-head comparison of two wines that are from the same grape, same year and the same region and have high ratings from reputable wine reviewers, but one is twice as expensive as the other. And we want to know - can we actually tell the difference between these two wines that have such different price points. Does a more expensive wine taste better or bring you more joy? We will let you know! We also talk about why wine reviews can be unreliable (but not ours, heavens no!), and why Oregon Pinot Noir can be pricey. Hint: when you make great wine carefully, and you choose to work with a grape as finicky as Pinot Noir, and when you only make a small amount of wine, that shizz is going to be expensive. Rather than saying expensive, we would maybe say a luxury item. That sounds better. Wines reviewed in this episode: 2023 Soter Vineyards Planet Oregon Pinot Noir, 2023 Chehalem Estate Vineyard

videoHow We Turn Grapes Into Wine (Vintage Update)
Vintage 2025 has begun, and we're giving you an inside look at how grapes actually become wine. This is week one of harvest, and it's been hard and fast—every day this week the team has been crushing, processing, and pressing fruit. This year's vintage is early by about a week or two, and it's unusually compressed, meaning everything is happening at once. Welcome to the chaos. What you'll see: ✓ Machine-harvested Fiano grapes from the Riverland (they look like little hand grenades after pressing) ✓ Our grape receiver system with the shaker that separates free-run juice immediately ✓ The press with a pneumatic bag that gently extracts juice ✓ A peristaltic pump that works like your esophagus (seriously the best pump for this job) ✓ Variable capacity tanks where we ferment and store wine ✓ Why we sometimes leave white grapes on skins overnight ✓ How we separate free run juice from pressed juice (and why it matters) The Equipment Breakdown: The grape receiver/elevator system we use is
