Marlborough at 50: A wine story worthy of Hollywood

This is a tale of deception, daring, disaster...and deliverance. It also features skinny sheep and wine robots. It's the story of Marlborough, the iconic New Zealand wine region which is celebrating its 50th wine birthday, after vines were planted by Frank Yukich in August 1973. Yukich had risked personal financial ruin getting to this point. 'Wines from here will become world famous!' he declared. Shortly after which most of the vines died from drought. But no adventure story is without its supreme setbacks. And this story features everything from the Queen to gut-rot via shiny tractors. On the wine front, it's sobering to think just how far Marlborough has come in 50 harvests, from a shaky start to sensational Sauvignon Blanc and much more besides. It's a region helping set the global agenda for the wine of the future - and a tribute to the imaginative, resilient Kiwi spirit. This is a sponsored episode in collaboration with New Zealand Winegrowers. We taste and recommend the followi

Blindflug 121: Wenn der LKW kreist

Es erscheint auf den ersten Blick recht einfach: Produziert eine Region im Mittel guten Wein, dann wird sie dafür durch Verleihung eines ‚höheren‘ Status belohnt. Aus IGT wird DOC und aus DOC dann DOCG. So lautet zumindest die vielfach kolportierte Geschichte. Doch warum ist Bolgheri dann eine DOC und Asti Spumante eine DOCG? Das müssen wir erklären, genau so wie die verwirrende Wirkung des Rosso di Toscana IGT. Danach widmen wir uns dann der Frage, wie sinnvoll Abwertungen wären.

Serviceware Pleasanton | 2 Generations of Tech

Owners Justin & Jenn Carvacho are both avid listeners of the podcast as well as community ambassadors just the same. We are honored/humbled/grateful/excited to be able to share both their story and services on the podcast. The business's inception is a bit American dream meets a love story. In 1972, Justin's father [Carlos] immigrated from Chile to California to attend Heald College to pursue an education in TV repair. Fate had different plans when he met his would-be wife, Gail, at a pizza parlor in Berkeley. Justin's father found Serviceware in 1982, and the rest is somewhat history, as they say. After working with the business for 8 years, the original owners approached Carlos with an offer they could not refuse - to take over the company. 41 years later, they have established themselves as one of the very few legacy providers of Apple Authorized Service in the Bay Area. Serviceware started as an electronics repair shop and has become an industry leader in phone and computer repair.
