🎧The Wine Makers – Katy Wilson, VinePair NextWave Winemaker of the Year, Carbonic Maceration
On this week’s episode of The Wine Makers, we speak to Vine Pair’s Winemaker of the year Katy Wilson. Katy is a certified bad ass in the wine industry making wine for Anaba, Reeve, Bloodroot, and her own brand LaRue Wines. Katy grew up with agriculture in her blood, farming walnuts on her family’s farm. After double majoring in Wine & Viticulture and Agricultural Business at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, Katy got the winemaking bug traveling the world to make wines with some of the greats. Today we talk about all things carbonic maceration. Katy has been using carbonic maceration to make fresh delicious wines for her clients for years and advised our very own Danielle Langlois with her 2025 Gamay. Katy brought some really cool carbonically made Pinot, Grenache, and Sangiovese wines for us to try, some young, and spicy, and some fresh but subdued with a bit of age. Katy also brought some bottles from her personal label LaRue. We tasted a coastal, mouth watering, acid-driven 2021 Chardonnay

LEARNING ABOUT WINE: Albariño Across Rías Baixas
Albariño Across Rías Baixas Albariño is often introduced as a single Galician white wine: crisp, aromatic, coastal, and useful at the table. That description leaves out the local differences that shape the grape. Rías Baixas is divided into five subzones, and those subzones do not behave alike. Val do Salnés, O Rosal, Condado do Tea, ...

The Magic of Oak: Wood in Beer, Cider, and Mead
There's a moment in every barrel-aged batch where something clicks. The harsh, tannic edge softens. The fruit comes forward. A faint vanilla warmth settles into the background like it was always there. You didn't add vanilla. You didn't add anything — you just waited, and the wood did the work.

videoI Didn’t Like South African Wine… Until THIS (£9.95!) (Episode 575)
In this episode of WineMastery, we put a South African white wine to the test—and it completely changed expectations. Featuring a blend of Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay, and Viognier, this under-£10 wine delivers surprising complexity, with notes of honey, peach, apple, and a long, evolving finish that keeps giving even after you think it’s done. One of us wasn’t a fan of South African wines… until now. We break down: • What this wine tastes like (and why it’s unusual) • Whether it’s better than Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay • Why it punches above its price point • Perfect food pairings (including grilled chicken & blue cheese!) • Whether it’s worth buying again 💷 Price: £9.95 🍇 Blend: Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay, Viognier 👉 If you enjoy discovering great value wines without the snobbery, you’re in the right place. 📌 Got a question about wine? Drop it in the comments—we answer viewer questions in future episodes! 🥂 Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and hit the bell so you never miss
