GSN Review: Full Bore Peanut Butter & Jalapeno Flavored Whiskey
We normally don’t review gimmicky products here at GSN, but this one happened to land in our hands this past weekend. Yes, it looks like a cannon shell or perhaps an oversized bullet. The idea of peanut butter and jalapenos was a new one to us, but apparently it is a big deal in Texas […]

How Did The Launch of the Super Premium Rosé Whispering Angel from Château D’esclans Change Provence?
Introduction How did Sacha Lichine’s launch of Garrus and Whispering Angel from Château d’Esclans, which now exceeds 10 million bottles a year change Provence? What happens to a wine region when historic family estates are increasingly bought by wealthy outsiders and corporations? How can classifying wine by colour get in the way of understanding what’s actually in the glass? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I’m chatting with Liz Gabay and Ben Bernheim. You can find the wines we discussed here. Giveaway Two of you are going to win a copy of Liz Gabay and Ben […]
videoThe complete US wine map explained in 3 minutes
Wine is now produced in all 50 states. From Pacific fog and rain shadow deserts to glacial lakes, discover the complete American wine map. What questions does this video answer? How do diverse microclimates across the US produce entirely different styles of wine? What makes California responsible for roughly 80% of all American wine production? How do Oregon, Washington, and Idaho redefine West Coast viticulture? Why do New York's Finger Lakes, Virginia, Texas, and New Mexico succeed with European grapes? How does an American Viticultural Area (AVA) provide winemakers with unmatched creative freedom? About This Video: Across the United States, there is no single American grape, cellar, or style—there is an expansive map of geological experiments. Wine is now made in all 50 states, spanning from cold lake country to arid high deserts. California remains the anchor, producing roughly four out of every five bottles of American wine. Yet the Golden State is far from uniform. Napa V
video2024 Maison Chanzy Pinot Noir Les Fortunes Bourgogne Rouge | Unfiltered Wine Club (September 2026)
THE STORY Real red Burgundy—the kind every other Pinot Noir on earth gets measured against—almost never turns up at an approachable address. Maison Chanzy is the exception: 100% Pinot Noir from old vines in the Côte Chalonnaise, just south of the fabled Côte d'Or, farmed and bottled by a house that leaves the fruit to do the talking. The cool, classic 2024 vintage gave it bright red fruit and a light, lifted step—Burgundy the way Burgundy lovers remember it. THE DETAILS 🍷 2024 Maison Chanzy Pinot Noir Les Fortunes, Bourgogne Rouge 📍 Côte Chalonnaise, Burgundy, France 🍇 Pinot Noir (100%) 🌡️ Serve at 58°F 📅 Drink now through 2030 🍽️ Pairs with: vegetables, soft cheese, white meat 👃 Tasting note: Luminous ruby in the glass, with aromas of wild strawberry, Bing cherry, and red currant alongside rose petal and crushed herbs. On the palate, juicy red fruit balances against black tea, baking spice, and damp limestone, framed by fine-grained tannins and bright acidity. 👉 Join The Unf

GSN Review: Agwa de Bolivia Coca Leaf Liqueur
I’m honestly surprised it’s taken this long for a coca leaf spirit to make a debut. After all, coca was used in the world’s most popular soft drink, and energy drinks are all the rage. Agwa is not 100% coca but also includes dozens of other herbs. So, in a way, it’s very much in […]
videoA Wine To Avoid 👎🏻
Grapes can display good sugar level ripeness, but phenolic ripeness is critical as well. Adequate sugar levels will provide a good alcohol base, but the phenolic ripeness links to color depth, aroma and flavor characteristics and softer and better integrated tannins. #winetasting #wineeducation #vineyard #harvest #grape #tannin #winelover #wine #mwlife #masterofwine #bobpaulinski
video2025 Cieck Erbaluce di Caluso Piedmont | Unfiltered Wine Club (September 2026)
THE STORY A tiny, glacier-carved pocket of Piedmont gave the world Erbaluce—and Cieck has done more than almost any producer to keep it alive. Their 2025 bottling is everything we love about this wine: piercing acidity, wet-stone minerality, and a citrusy brightness that makes it nearly impossible to put down. One of the most beloved Italian whites we offer, and still an almost unreasonable value. THE DETAILS 🍷 2025 Cieck Erbaluce di Caluso 📍 Piedmont, Italy (Erbaluce di Caluso DOCG) 🍇 Erbaluce (100%) 💲 $24 📅 Drink now through 2030 🍽️ Pairs with: soft cheese, shellfish, fish 👃 Tasting note: A vibrant, copper-tinged white with aromas of crushed limestone, grapefruit peel, lime leaf, and honeysuckle. Cleansing and mineral-rich on the palate, with piercing acidity carrying through to a long finish. 👉 Join The Unfiltered Podcast Wine Club: https://www.wineaccess.com/podcast/ #ErbaluceDiCaluso #PiedmontWine #ItalianWine #WineClub #WineAccess #UnfilteredPodcastWineClub Follow a

Raising Standards
Joy is unconfined, one assumes, in the Languedoc village of Montpeyroux: last week it became the 369th French Appellation d’Origine Controlée. This will mean stricter controls on the red grapes used – but you can go wild and use 10% Counoise! – and maximum yields of 45 hectolitres per hectare. The commune’s wines were previously […]

Archaeologists Discover Ancient Beer Receipts From 4,000 Years Ago
Cracking open a cold one is a common post-work ritual across many cultures today, but archaeologists discovered the practice dates back at least 4,000 years. The National Museum of Denmark has been home to a robust collection of tablets inscribed in now-extinct languages from early Middle Eastern civilizations for over a century, but archaeologists there, along with colleagues from the University of Copenhagen, only recently began to research them. The scholars deciphered a list of kings, administrative documents, and magic spells written in cuneiform — the tablet-writing system that ancient cultures in Iraq and Syria adopted around 5,200 years ago.
