The Wine Makers – Ben Gordon, Bouchon Family Wines
Our friend Bella Pearson from Vine Connections introduced us to Ben Gordon from J. Bouchon Family Winery this week, and we were immediately intrigued by their deep history of farming Pais —known as Mission here in California. The Bouchon family’s winemaking story began in the late 19th century when young viticulturist Emile Bouchon left Bordeaux, France, for Chile. Today, Julio Bouchon and his children continue the family’s fourth-generation winemaking tradition in the Maule Valley , blending deep soil research with innovative techniques to craft distinctive, terroir-driven wines that honor the region’s rich history. One of the most fascinating aspects of their vineyards is how Pais grows up the trees along the vineyard’s edge, creating a stunning visual that had us imagining climbing ladders to harvest the grapes—definitely not OSHA-approved here in California!

videoCustom Wine Cellar Cooling Guide for Beginners!
The primary goal of wine cellars, supported by the installation of wine cellar cooling units, is to age and store wine over extended periods. It's not just about storing wine at any temperature and chilling it before consumption. This becomes crucial, especially when dealing with expensive or substantial quantities of fine wines. Over many months or years, wine can suffer negative effects or even be ruined if stored in an environment that is excessively hot, too cold, or subject to frequent fluctuations. The precision of wine cellar cooling units ensures a stable and optimal environment for the proper aging and preservation of wines. For anyone looking to build their first wine room or wine cellar, here's a beginner's guide on custom wine cellar cooling!

podcast· 38:31· S6E13Appellation Marlborough Wine
Appellations are wine regions with rules, normally associated with Europe. So how come an enviably free-wheeling, super successful region like New Zealand's Marlborough has felt the need to develop Appellation Marlborough Wine ? We put this question and more to Ben Glover, renowned winemaker and proud Appellation Marlborough Wine (AMW) member. He talks about, 'ripping the beige quilt off Marlborough' and his distaste for 'mediocrity'. We also have fun playing around with AMW's jazzy new interactive wine map, tasting along to bring the geography to life through a set of delicious Marlborough Sauvignon Blancs. (You can do the same too!) Thanks to Appellation Marlborough Wine for sponsoring this episode and once again allowing us to taste and talk about one of our all-time favourite wine regions. We also touch on things as diverse as pastoral shows, the Model T Ford in black, springtime fireworks, scripture, swamps, growing pains, snow peas, 'corrupt acidity' and dancing a merry jig... Th
podcast· 33:11· S7E21Walla Walla Road Trip - Hoquetus Wines
Robert from Hoquetas Wines ditches his rock-god tours to nerd out on Riesling and Rhône blends in Walla Walla. He’s obsessed with minimal intervention—so no fancy lab tricks or color-boosting chemicals, and apparently not even a whiff of new oak is allowed to stain his precious juice. Heidi Moore, the gracious host who loves to remind us she butchers names, pokes into Robert’s Catholic altar boy wine days (yep, underage church guzzling), his musician career, and how he’s basically a one-man band in both the winery and the tasting room. They fangirl over Riesling’s overlooked splendor, get all philosophical about wine being a living masterpiece, and dish out sweet pairings like fried chicken with bubbly.

podcast· 5:28Le vin peut-il être un placement plus rentable que la bourse ?
Acheter du vin comme on investit en bourse : l’idée séduit de plus en plus d’amateurs et d’investisseurs en quête d’un actif tangible, potentiellement rentable et moins volatil que les marchés financiers. Longtemps dominé par les grands crus de Bordeaux et de Bourgogne, ce marché s’est aujourd’hui largement diversifié, avec l’émergence des vins dits «confidentiels», issus de petits domaines ultra-recherchés, le plus souvent estampillé nature. De nouvelles tendances qui chahutent un peu les codes, et ouvrent des perspectives relativement inédites. Dans ce nouvel épisode de Parlons Vin, la journaliste Alicia Dorey vous explique comment investir dans le vin et rivaliser avec la finance traditionnelle.

167: Exportweltmeister der Herzen - mit Heike und Gernot Heinrich
Wenn Willi eine Stunde vor der Folge schreibt „heute bin ich nervös“, dann wissen wir: es kommen nicht nur Top-Gäste (wie sonst auch immer), sondern Senator-Class-Platinum-Superstars. Und das sind heute: Heike und Gernot Heinrich aus dem Burgenland. Als Winzer sind sie visionär, als Menschen sympathisch und down to earth - die perfekte Cuvée. Apropos Cuvée: Heinrichs „Salzberg“ gehört zu den absoluten Kultweinen Österreichs und wird natürlich heute verkostet, wie andere Highlights ihres Programms. Auffällig ist dabei, dass die Weine von Heike und Gernot trotz großer Bandbreite immer durch einen Roten Faden verbunden zu sein scheinen.

podcast· 55:48· S8E70E70 - Jordan Wine Estate · Stellenbosch, South Africa
For Episode 70, we return to South Africa for the first time in almost four years, and we do so in grand fashion—by visiting Jordan Wines Estate in Stellenbosch. Owned by husband-and-wife duo Kathy and Gary Jordan, this estate is a benchmark of excellence, seamlessly blending tradition, science, and sustainability in winemaking. In this episode, we explore Jordan's Timepiece Range, a tribute to their heritage and old vines, and discuss how Gary's background in geology has shaped their vineyard's unique terroir. Kathy shares insights on economics in wine marketing, while Gary reveals their bold approach to combat climate change, including pioneering plantings of Assyrtiko, Mencía, and Xinomavro. We also dive into winemaking as an art versus a science, the evolution of consumer preferences, and the challenges South African vintners face today—from climate adaptation to international trade barriers. Plus, an exclusive look at their UK project, Mousehall Country Estate, where they are craf
