It’s fast! It’s furious! It’s the frenetic pace of passing a scarce resource (aka microphones) between several people who all want to talk!
Kaz and Randy have their good friend (and sommelier) John Burdick visit and do what he does best: taste wine and talk about it. What wine, you ask? It’s supplied by Bryan Avila, instructor and winemaker at Napa Valley College’s Viticulture & Winery Technology department. Our most excellent hosts chat him up about the program over at NVC, the bonded winery they just created, and the first bonded vintage they’re releasing. Did you know they’re planning a tasting room? You will once you listen to this episode! Get crackin’!
Perhaps our most obscure episode title to date! Is it more obvious than we think it is? Let us know!
Using their amazing time-bending powers, Kaz & Randy are simultaneously at the Wine Industry Technology Symposium (WITS) in Napa while this show is podcast to your ears! Amazing!
Kaz shows his greedy side! While he’s busy lining his pockets from product mentions, Randy at least maintains journalistic independence and invites old friend (of Kaz’s at least) Ziggy “The Wine Gal” Eschliman to the studios to talk about what it is to be a “Rock ‘n Roll Wine Amabassador”. She even gives her summertime wine recommendations, and we approve!
And now, for all of you who want to get your wine geek on, Kaz and Randy welcome John Katchmer to sit in with them and discuss the unpredictable lifestyle of a wine lab enologist. We discover John’s radio personality alter ego! His connection to Hollywood! The Vinquiry Lonely Hearts Winemaker Hotline! That, and so much more, you need to listen to believe!
