Today’s guest on Always Drink the Good Stuff! Podcast is someone who truly lives and breathes wine. I had the pleasure of sitting down with my good friend Herbie Monterrosa — a lifelong wine enthusiast, passionate wine salesman, dedicated traveler, and expert on both French and Italian wines. Affectionately known as the King of Italian Wines, Herbie’s journey is as inspiring as it is fascinating.

In this episode, Herbie shares his story of humble beginnings working in restaurants, his path to becoming one of the top voices in Italian wine, and his deep love for Burgundy and Barolo. We also look back on our unforgettable adventures through Champagne, Burgundy, and the rolling hills of Barolo — moments filled with laughter, discovery, and, of course, unforgettable bottles of wine.

This conversation is a celebration of wine, food, travel, and the magic of sharing rare, beautifully aged wines with friends who truly savor every sip. If you love wine, stories, and the joy of good company, you won’t want to miss this episode. Cheers!
