podcast· 54:34· Ep 86Throwing Punches at the Traditional Wine World - Wine Culture with Miguel de Leon, Ep. 86
When you look at a restaurant's wine list, what do you see? Do you see equity, cultural and biodiversity, representation, affordability, fun? Our guest today believes all of that should be front and center on a wine list. Miguel de Leon has made a career and a celebrated name for himself as a wine professional of color in New York City, where he is currently the wine director at Pinch Chinese in Manhattan. When he's not running the wine program at Pinch, he's writing thought-provoking articles for the online magazine Punch that aren't afraid to throw a punch at the status quo of the wine world. He's brave and outspoken and just what the mostly white wine world needs today. Today, we'll explore where the wine industry and wine culture stands now in terms of progress, or lack thereof, on diversity, accessibility, equality and inclusiveness. Miguel has stirred up controversy with his writings for Punch, including "It's Time to Decolonize Wine," and "So Long to the Sommelier." Miguel has a

Make Yourself Special, Not the Bottle!
In my most recent posting I proposed, given the Covid19 lockdown effect on our lives, that we be a bit more self-indulgent when enjoying the little things in life. Little things like wine . . . and food. In addition to uncorking that “special bottle” that’s been patiently waiting to be appreciated, I suggested that you upgrade your wine philosophy (and self-worth) to include higher quality wines. That is, make yourself special, not the bottle. And so, I’m offering below a few time-worn ideas and advisories that hopefully will enhance your level of wine appreciation. You may be aware of these, or occasionally even employ them, but either way, just consider them friendly reminders, or at worst, an encouragement to make your wine experience a bit more fulfilling. First, is the “thirty-minute rule.” For optimum enjoyment, pull whites from the fridge thirty minutes before serving. Also, for countertop or otherwise, poorly stored reds (and whites), pop them into fridge for

Ep 181: The Wines of the Douro Valley with Anne Mchale MW (Part 2)
To download the transcript CLICK HERE Welcome back to part two with Anne McHale , Master of Wine. In this episode, we shift our focus from Alsace to the Douro region in Portugal. Anne shares her memorable experience of treading grapes in the Douro, highlighting the historical significance of traditional foot treading in port wine production and comparing it to modern mechanical methods. We'll explore the primary red grapes used in port production: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz (Tempranillo), Tinta Cão, and Tinta Barroca. Additionally, we'll discuss the breathtaking UNESCO World Heritage landscape of the Douro, with its steep, vineyard-covered slopes visible (something we should all be experiencing from a cruise boat along the River Douro). We dig deeper into the unique vineyard planting methods: the traditional stone-wall terraces called Socalcos, the 1980s earth-bank Patamares, and the vertical plantings known as Vinha ao Alto. And even the oldest stone walls, Pilheiro

Der Podcast handelt von einem Besuch bei einem Weingut in Stadigen-Elsheim im Selztal. Themen wie die Vielzahl von Weingütern in der Gegend, die Ausbildung und Erfahrungen des jungen Winzers, die Familiengeschichte und Generationenfolge im Weingut sowie die Umstellung auf Bio-Anbau werden behandelt.
