🎧Decoy Wine: Should You Buy It, or Duck It?
We know you’ve seen Decoy wines around with their famous duck on the label, but the real question is - have you ever tried Decoy wine? Before you answer that question, we want to tell you what we think. Before we do that, we’re going to tell you a bit about the parent company that Decoy comes from called Duckhorn Wine Company started by, and this is not a joke, Margaret and Dan Duckhorn. Then we are going to tell you more about Decoy wine itself, its history, its purpose, and its winemaker. And then we are going to do a real, honest, tasting and review of two Decoy wines to let you know if you should buy it (and, as always, we bought these wines with our own money, so you know we are being real). We also have some things to say about the inevitable AI apocalypse and what wine has to do with it, wink, wink. And we even have a listener interview for our tribe name this week. So, look, it’s time to get your ducks in a row, put down your ducking phone, and listen to this episode so we can

🎧Realm Cellars: From Struggling Brand to Top Napa Estate Winery
In the final story of this two-part series, Scott and host Carol Collison talk about Scott’s acquisition of the virtual brand Realm Cellars in 2012. In this interview Scott tells the story of getting into the business, which he partially financed by assuming accumulated debts, and how he then found more debts, less cash, and a daily working capital struggle. After the momentum shift for the brand from a 100-point Parker score, the business finally turned the corner. Today, Realm is an estate winery with properties in the important Napa growing areas of Stags Leap, Pritchard Hill, and Coombsville

Corked: What Your Website Analytics Are Trying to Tell You
Most winery owners can tell you their tasting room pour numbers, their club renewal rate, and exactly how the last vintage performed against the previous one. Ask them their website's bounce rate or mobile conversion rate and the answer is usually a pause, then a guess. That gap isn't unusual. The tasting room gives you immediate feedback. Someone shows up, tastes, buys, or doesn't. The website runs in the background, doing its job or failing at it, without anyone giving it a second thought. Your website is already telling you whether it's working. The data is there, sitting in Google Analytics 4. If your winery isn't using GA4 yet, that's the first thing worth fixing. Everything this post covers, bounce rates, mobile conversion gaps, cart abandonment, traffic source performance, is visible inside it. You don't need to guess whether your site is costing you sales. You need to know where to look. Ripe or Sour? What Your Analytics Are Saying Bounce rate by page. Bounce rate measures the

🎧Ep 276 – Ken Forrester: The King of Chenin Blanc & the Wild Side of South African Wine
Season 7 of Eat Sleep Wine Repeat begins in South Africa with one of the wine world's biggest personalities: Ken Forrester. Known as the “King of Chenin Blanc”, Ken joins Janina for a conversation filled with extraordinary stories, pioneering winemaking and plenty of laughter, while exploring what has made Stellenbosch one of the world's most exciting Wine Regions. Ken explains why this grape has thrived in South Africa and how decades of experimentation have produced wines ranging from vibrant traditional-method sparkling wine to the iconic FMC and the extraordinarily complex The Dirty Little Secret. For anyone looking to learn about wine through the stories of the people actually making it, this is wine education at its most entertaining. Ken also shares the story of planting Mourvèdre in South Africa, why he believes Pinotage should be celebrated as a fresh, juicy and even chillable red, and how Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre come together in his Three Halves blend. Along the way, Ja

🎧Ep 185 A Dream Written Down: The San Miguel Nested AVA – Featuring Kahal Family Vineyards
🍇 Where Wine Takes You, Episode Highlights 🍷 What happens when you actually follow through on the crazy thing you wrote down years ago? This week, Adam sits down with Dave and Shawn Kahal of Kahal Family Vineyards, whose path to wine country included Orange County, Connecticut, basement winemaking, some memorably bad early wine, and eventually a vineyard in Indian Valley with a San Miguel address. Their story is a good reminder that the finished bottle is usually the least complicated part. The conversation gets into Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, learning the realities of farming, the challenges facing growers in today’s wine market, and what it means to build a winery around experiences and relationships rather than simply making more wine. It’s also the latest stop in our exploration of Paso Robles’ 11 nested AVAs, with a closer look at the history and geography of the San Miguel District.
