Which cuisine is the best one for you? the French delicate high-end gastronomy, or maybe their Fashion, Louis Vuitton, Hermes, or is it Italy, the pasta, Lasagna, Pizza, Gucci or Versace? Which culture do you like most? When it comes to wine though, does France really make better wine than the Italians?

podcast· 1h 24m· S11E205Deep Thoughts: Jack Bittner on Building Legacy Estates and Navigating the Napa Wine Business
Welcome back to another episode of Beats, Vines & Life! This time, host MJ Towler heads to the heart of Napa Valley for a refreshing and thoughtful conversation with Jack Bittner, the managing partner of Accendo Estate. With a rich background in business, global investment, and a deep-rooted love for fine wine, Jack B brings an owner’s mindset and a collector’s palate to every decision at Accendo. In this episode, you’ll hear about Jack B’s journey from a small town near Boston to becoming a Napa Valley tastemaker, how philosophy and a curious spirit shaped his path, and how he sees wine as an ever-evolving puzzle—one that keeps even the sharpest minds guessing. The discussion covers everything from the art of precision viticulture and what truly defines a “sense of place” in wine, to wild stories from his early days managing a wine shop (while still underage!) and insights on the challenges and future of Napa Valley’s luxury wine scene. But it’s not all business—expect plenty of laugh

podcast· 47:56· S7E22The Story of Stalin's Wine Cellar PART TWO
Meet John Baker , Sydney wine merchant turned Indiana Jones turned author of Stalin's Wine Cellar , one of the most eye-opening wine stories you're likely to hear. In the first part of this real-life account, John recounted how he'd got a tip-off about a mysterious wine cellar in Tbilisi, Georgia, apparently chock full of the greatest wines in the world, some more than a hundred years old. What's more, the cellar came with an astonishing story of provenance and ownership... It was, in short, a wine lover's fever dream. So of course John decided to investigate, soon finding himself in the wild west of wine: a world of cash and guns and enforcers and high-speed races through the streets of Tbilisi. Not to mention heart-rending breakages, the odd death threat - and unicorn wines aplenty. In this second and concluding part of this narrative two-parter, John grapples with Georgian agendas and threats while attempting to investigate the authenticity of the wines, including a trip to Chateau
