Ep 164: Exploring the Creston District Sub AVA – Featuring Ella’s Vineyard | Defiance Vineyard
🍇 Where Wine Takes You – Episode Highlights 🍷 In this episode of Where Wine Takes You , Adam heads east into one of Paso Robles’ most quietly compelling sub-AVAs, the Creston District. It’s a place that doesn’t shout for attention, but once you find it, it sticks with you. Adam sits down with Erin Faulkner , co-owner of Defiance Vineyard , and Josh Morris , owner and winemaker of Ella’s Vineyard , two producers carving out their own identities in a part of Paso defined by elevation, wind, and independence. Erin shares the story behind Defiance, a true family-built operation that started from raw land and evolved into a Bordeaux-focused program rooted in intention and individuality. Josh brings a different lens with Ella’s Vineyard, leaning into Italian varietals, concrete fermentation, and a hospitality-driven experience that reflects both precision and personality. Together, the conversation dives into what makes Creston different, not just in terroir, but in mindset. A place where

Desperately Seeking Better (NA) Beer
I often wonder how to rate or judge non-alcoholic beers and then communicate in a way that people who are looking for NA options can understand. Realistically, the depth of the field isn't the best and there is a wild chasm between great and good, even more so between mid and bad. I guess it's a young(ish) industry that will need some time to really find its legs, if it can be profitable enough to force quality to the forefront and not just an add on to entice the DD to stick around so everyone can have a few more Pints before heading home with a six pack or two. Even some of the breweries that are entirely focused on making NA beers can have terrible products side by side with some really fine offerings. The lack of quality control, coupled with an uneducated and/or desperate consumer base has made for a rush to market for a lot of things and an acceptance of that's just how things are...but I think there is a real opportunity as we move forward in the Sober and So
podcast· 1h 07m· S8E1Does France still matter: The Judgement of Paris at 50 (S8 E1)
Fifty years after the Judgment of Paris, is the wine world ready for another revolution? The panel dishes on world class Oregon Chardonnay, the chef dishes up buttery roasted oyster with hijiki seaweed, and we get into the growing movement for "Honest Wine" and label transparency, and why, despite the buzz, non-alcoholic wine stills falls short. Season 8, Episode 1 of The Real Wine Show opens by thanking sponsor The Gabriel Group ( www.gabrielgrp.com ), a Midwest hospitality equipment supplier with showrooms and test kitchens. The panel introduces Rebecca Waldron (Bush’s beer/wine/spirits buyer and Michigan Craft Beverage Council member), Dr. Matthew Horkey (wine writer and YouTuber), and Domenico “Mimmo” Musumeci (West Michigan farmer-winemaker behind wine projects including Wine Pirati, emphasizing transparency and ingredient labeling). They debate whether the old world–new world rivalry still matters ahead of the Judgment of Paris 50th anniversary, discuss sommelier culture and blin

Thibaud Mandet: Oral History Interview
This interview is with Thibaud Mandet of Clos Griotte. In this interview, Thibaud speaks about growing up in France and pursuing an interest in science, before discovering that putting his scientific knowledge toward wine was even more interesting. He then talks about his education and internships, followed by his arrival in the United States. He discusses meeting with the owners and team at WillaKenzie Estate in Yamhill for the first time, starting work there as an enologist, and eventually being the head winemaker. He then talks about leaving to start his own brand, Clos Griotte, and how that has gone so far. This interview was conducted by Rich Schmidt at Clos Griotte in Amity on March 4, 2026.
podcast· 54:27· Ep 506Beyond Classification: Château Quintus, Wine Passion, and Reimagining Saint-Émilion's Legacy: Nils Vaincot
It is crazy interesting to me that a winery as young as Quintus, in such an established and historical area as Saint Emilion, can make such waves when virtually in it's infancy as a winery. Michel Roland (we just lost him), the famed oenologist once told a friend of mine that now that it is established she can grow wine grapes at her vineyard, it will take 100 years to know what it really can do. Enter the Chateau Quintus, a winery in the famed Right Bank Bordeaux appelation; Saint Emilion. The fertile ground where Chateau Cheval Blanc, Chateau Angelus and Petrus call home, is now the birthplace of the upstart Chateau Quintus. Up start only in the sense that it is a youngin' having only been established in 2011. To have been able to create such concentrated, complex wine in such a short time would have been unheard of in the earlier days of Bordeaux; meaning, how could this happen? It has taken dozens of years for other Chateau to learn of their own pedigree...hear the story here. YouT
podcast· 4:40Hommes, femmes : sommes-nous égaux face au vin ?
On pose régulièrement la question : «Est-ce que les femmes tiennent moins bien l’alcool que les hommes ?» La réponse courte, c’est oui. La réponse longue, c’est que la question elle-même est un piège, parce qu’elle mélange deux choses très différentes : la physiologie – ce que le corps fait de l’alcool –, et la perception sociale – ce qu’on a le droit de faire quand on est une femme qui boit. Dans ce nouvel épisode de Parlons Vin, la journaliste Alicia Dorey vous explique pourquoi un même verre de vin peut avoir des conséquences différentes sur un homme et sur une femme. Vous pouvez écouter cet épisode sur Figaro Radio, le site du Figaro et sur toutes les plateformes d'écoutes.

podcast· 58:35· S9E88E88 - Poderi Cellario · Langhe, Piedmont, Italy
What happens when wine stops trying to impress… and starts trying to live? In this episode, we head to the western edge of the Langhe in Piemonte to meet Simone Cellario of Poderi Cellario — a third-generation winery that doesn't quite fit the script. At first glance, everything feels easy. Playful labels. Litre bottles. Crown caps. Wines that don't take themselves too seriously. But look closer… and you realise this is serious work. We talk about Dolcetto — not as a "simple" wine, but as the cultural heartbeat of the region. A grape that speaks more about people than prestige. We explore forgotten and misunderstood varieties like Grignolino and Nascetta, and what it takes to bring them back into the conversation without turning them into museum pieces. We also get into something less romantic — the economics of wine. Because making honest wine is one thing. Making it sustainable, financially and socially, is another. This is a conversation about balance. Between tradition and change.

Don’t call it Burgundy: How to find great wines for less from France’s Bourgogne region
Way back in the 1990s, when I began visiting “Burgundy,” as it was then commonly called, in France, it was not so easy to navigate the region’s many wine producers, villages and restaurants. There was little readily available information on the internet. English was rarely spoken and arranging tastings at the many small, family-owned domaines […]

Trigger Warning: SA I had such a great time chatting with my friend, Nikea. I met Nikea in Twelve Step and am honored to be able to share her story with you guys :) After childhood antics smoking weed and drinking, Nike was given the ultimatum - move out or join the Army. She chose the Army. Shipped off to South Korea after bootcamp, Nikea's life changed after a sexual assault that occurred the second weekend after her arrival. This assault led to a behavioral spiral of acting out and escalating partying. Eventually finding sobriety in 2023, Nikea is such an asset in our recovery community and in my life.
