podcast· 1h 02m· Ep 19IWP Ep19 Sebastian Erggelet - Erggelet Brothers
Indie Wine Podcast episode 19 - Sebastian Erggelet - Erggelet Brothers. Sebastian Erggelet along with his brother Julian, make up Erggelet Brothers. They recently built a new winery in Brentwood, in the heart of Contra Costa County and are making really balanced, classically styled, lower intervention wines from Mataro, Carignane, Zinfandel and Malvasia. Everything coming from within a few minutes of the winery. They have also been planting a new vineyard at the farm the winery sits on, concentrating on grapes they feel will work well in the Contra Costa conditions. As Sebastian mentions, there isn’t a historical precedent for certain white varieties in the area. We discuss growing up in Germany, ending up in California and making wine in Contra Costa amongst other topics. You’ll hear a little tour of their new vineyard before we go inside to sit down and a little bit more at the very end. You can find their wines at erggeletwine.com and on instagram https://www.instagram.com/erggeletb
videoEssential Natty Wines
6 wines to get you started on your natural wine journey. Disclaimer Chin Chin This is not actually a natural wine as they use a bit of insecticide and fungicide in the vineyard. However it is made with minimal intervention and is under 50ppm total SO2. I have included it as it is a gateway wine which is getting people into natural wine and bridging the gap between big commercial wineries and small scale artisanal wines. Calcarius I understand this is a controversial producer, there have been accusations of exploitation of workers. I trust the explanation given by the UK importer (les caves de pyrene) and the audits carried out on behalf of government monopolies (such as Norway) which found the working conditions to be satisfactory. In this case I decided to include this wine because it is still being sold and we can raise awareness.

RNV 100:Banshee Wines | Alicia Sylvester, Winemaker
On this episode, Michelle and Coco talk with Alicia Sylvester, winemaker for Banshee Wines. Alicia shares her agricultural roots (pun intended) and how they led her to appreciate the work done by farmers across the country. After working on harvests around the globe, Alicia returned to California to work at Chateau Montelena and Sonoma Cutrer. In 2021 she took on the role of Winemaker at Banshee Wines, producing wines that taste much more sophisticated than their price point would suggest. At Banshee, Alicia can indulge in both sides of her winemaking personality: Bordeaux style, in your face, big cabs and the more nuanced Burgundian pinot noirs and chardonnays. Alicia is also hilarious, loves to attend concerts, and will occasionally indulge in some 90s country (hellz yeah Garth Brooks!) Check out Banshee Wines and their tasting room record player just steps off the Healdsburg Plaza. https://www.bansheewines.com/

In 1906, Sophie Whalen found an ad seeking a wife and mother and took the chance at a fresh start in San Francisco. Martin, her new traveling salesman husband, and Kat, her silent, step-daughter, abruptly began a life together that soon unraveled when a pregnant woman named Belinda came knocking at their door recognizing Martin’s photo as her husband. Before the matter can be settled, the historic earthquake struck the city that destroyed Sophie’s home leaving her in charge of Kat and searching for any other survivors.
