Kaz and Randy do it over the phone!? Yes, indeed, the first (and hopefully) only Wine Blogging Wednesday where Kaz and Randy taste the same wine at the same time, from two different locations.
This time, it’s “Old World” Riesling, and they’ve chosen a Schloss Vollrads 2003 Rheingau Kabinett that they picked up at Taylor and Norton’s in Sonoma. Kaz dedicates the tasting to his “Deutsch heritage”, and Randy also mentions (on the side) about the revolutionary (and French?) innovation called USB Wine.
The conversation goes hither and yon after that, including Wine 2.0, Tim Elliot’s social media seminars and what Kaz will (or won’t) do about joining the online wine community. And Tom hints at a major wine blogger event coming later this year to Sonoma County!
It’s “Guest-a-licious Monday” at Wine Biz Radio! Kaz and Randy host a triple-header of online wine guests, starting with Tim Elliot of Winecast, who talks about his blog and his seminars on getting wineries to use social media. Next is Rick Bakas of Culination talks about his new business of wine and recipes on your mobile device. Finally, we have Joe Hendricks of Winesmash in to talk about his show and what makes him tick.
Quite possibly the best Wine Biz Radio yet, have a listen!
After a well-deserved week off, Kaz and Randy are back at it, apparently the “dynamic duo” of wine “infotainment”! They speak of a great many things, including current Sonoma weather and Powdery Mildew concerns, current events coming to Sonoma County, and next week’s insanity. Tim Elliot of Winecast calls in to discuss his west coast “Wineries and Social Media” seminars next week. Kaz and Randy hit a nerve in the online wine community when they discuss Jeff Lefevere’s controversial Good Grape post, where he opines that OpenWine Consortium and Wine 2.0 should merge in 2008, prompting a call from Joel Vincent, majordomo of OWC.
This is quite possibly the most jam-packed hour of Wine Biz Radio yet!
It’s Kaz and Randy’s first Wine Blogging Wednesday, and they do it up with their usual flavor of banter and good times.
So, what goes best with French Cab Franc? Kaz and Randy do! Take a listen as they review the Charles Joguet2003 Chinon Clos du Chêne Vert. As an added bonus, while they let the wine breathe, Randy’s daughter Ellie provides a short ad hoc fairy tale for your enjoyment.
You can join in the conversation! Kaz and Randy love to hear from you, our listeners! You can listen live to the show on Talkshoe on Wednesday nights (around 7PM Pacific):
