November 26, 2018 Sideways Effect - OR - Why You Should Stop Worrying And Love Merlot
Have you fallen prey to the Sideways Effect? This movie took a toll on the wine industry, causing sales of Merlot to dip back in 2005 and making Pinot Noir the new cool kid at the table. The 2 Non Somms discuss why Miles is wrong, and what Jen's experience was trying Merlot again after a very long hiatus. Give this episode a listen and see why it's just silly to write off Merlot because of a single line of dialogue in a movie.

November 12, 2018 Wines That Win Thanksgiving! (And The National Dog Show)
The 2 Non Somms discuss their top picks for wine to serve for Thanksgiving and present bonus wine recommendations to savor while enjoying The National Dog Show.
-
Dave's philosophy: Red in the gravy, white in the glass
Vouvray or another wine made from 100% Chenin Blanc - This wine will bring the party ALL *clap* DAY *clap* LONG
If you want to serve something specifically with dessert, go for sweet German Riesling (auslese or spätlese). An exception to the white in the glass mantra can be made here with a Port or other sweet fortified red.
Jen's philosophy: Red wine marathon
Looking for tried and true? Pinot Noir. Jen calls out Robert Mondavi specifically.
Looking to share something less common? Jen recommends Lagrein; Alois Lageder if you can find it.
-
For the dog show, Jen's planning on some warm mulled wine while Dave has committed to a nice Chianti in honor of his special dog, Zak.
