Aluvé Winery
JJ & Kelly Menozzi of Aluvé Winery Their Air Force Academy class had 1,000 students in it, 900 of them men. So it wasn’t until they pursued a Master’s degree in a smaller class setting that JJ and Kelly Menozzi met. They eventually became partners in life and in the sky, with JJ flying an F16 and Kelly a Boeing 707 fit with a device for refueling in the air. They travelled the world, moving 17 times during the 24 years they were in the Air Force. On weekends they visited wine regions wherever they were, and especially enjoyed the wines of Italy and Argentina. They also fell in love with the people, wine and town of Walla Walla while they were stationed in Idaho. When it came time to retire from the Air Force, the lure of Walla Walla convinced them to pursue winegrowing as a second career. In 2010, Kelly and JJ purchased 10 acres on the North side of the Mill Creek Valley, and had to start from scratch to turn the property into a home for themse

podcast· 52:25· Ep 510Building Wine Experiences: Kerrin Laz on Napa, Innovation, and Giving Back
Relentless in her pursuits would be an understatement because Kerrin Laz is a force of nature. Kerrin is the type of person the wine trade needs...now. She is chock full of energy, a plethora of ideas, and a cavalcade of pathways to get there. She will be on the show again; there were too many subjects we never discussed. Sitting down with Kerrin Laz was like flipping open a well-loved journal and discovering a handful of stories you'd forgotten you needed to hear. There's a warmth to the East Coast energy she carries with her, this tenacity blended with familiarity—sort of like sipping an old-vine Zinfandel that carries the sun of California but has the grit of Long Island soil. Right out of the gate, Karen Laz reminded me of those early, stumbling steps we all take in our careers. She grew up in New York, knew Dean & DeLuca as an iconic place—couldn't resist popping in for a cup of coffee, even though her resume, as she freely admits, "had, like, nothing on it" 00:06 .

podcast· 23:40· S1E23#023 - "La carta dei vini? sono io."
Ordinare il vino al ristorante dovrebbe essere un momento di piacere. Eppure, basta poco perché quell’equilibrio si incrini: una carta vini assente, un’annata diversa servita senza preavviso, una bottiglia già aperta che ci fa storcere il naso. In questa puntata vedremo 8 situazioni reali che compromettono l’esperienza del vino quando siamo al ristorante . Non una critica al servizio, ma anzi, una riflessione costruttiva su quanto i dettagli, dalla presentazione della bottiglia al cambio calice, possano fare la differenza per una cena perfetta. Perché il servizio non è solo tecnica, ma cultura, attenzione e rispetto del cliente. Se ti riconosci in almeno una di queste situazioni, questa puntata è per te.
