April 05, 2023 SEASON 7 Special Full Length Interview with Jason Wise of SOMM TV
It’s been a minute since we’ve shared an episode, but we’re glad you’re still here! We are excited to tell you about a full-length Major Crush episode that drops on Thursday, April 6th — it’s our latest interview with director Jason Wise of SOMM TV. It’s long overdue, but just like a well-made wine, a good story changes with time and when you finally open it up, there are so many beautiful layers to discover.
Technically, this interview launches us into our seventh season, but the remaining episodes won’t be out until later this summer. We’ve decided to be extra choosy this season and part of that means that we be recording most of our interviews LIVE with our guests instead of remotely. But we will still be posting updates, fun facts, and helpful food and wine information on social media, so if you haven’t started following us yet, find us @majorcrushwinecast

May 05, 2022 S6/EP 7: The Auburn James Interview
One of our favorite things to do on the show is to take our listeners to a tasting room in the middle of Wine Country and invite them into our experience! That’s exactly what we did for this sit-down with James Frost, the winemaker from Auburn James Winery in Napa. He’s a soft-spoken gentleman with an amazing talent for making wine, and a genius way of explaining everything he does! If you want to learn more about his wines — including his stunning Auburn James Artist series — check out his website: www.auburnjames.com

April 28, 2022 S6/EP 6: The Ross Cobb Interview
We are always thrilled when we have access to a winemaker we hear about all the time in the California Wine Country, and so when we were formally introduced to Ross Cobb, for us, the crush had started long ago! Ross Cobb is a humble and passionate person who arguably makes some of the most famous Pinot Noirs in all of Northern California. His story starts with joining the family tradition of making wine in the basement, but his love of the soil and his curious and open mind guide him into a career as one of the most noteworthy curators of wine we've met to date. If you want to learn more about Cobb Wines, be sure to visit the website (www.cobbwines.com)

April 21, 2022 S6/EP 5: Mary Taylor Wine
We’re keeping things international in this episode of Major Crush, but the amazing part is that our friend, Mary Taylor of Mary Taylor Wines thinks like an American through and through! It was such a blast to sit down with Mary in New Orleans earlier this year to hear all about her (quite literally) crazy journey into the world of wine! In her own words, Mary’s approach to wine is completely informed by her "broke 24-year-old self" — which makes this one of the purest and most authentic discussions we’ve ever had about wine. If you want to find a local shop in your area that carries Mary Taylor Wine, use the zip code finder on her website: mt.wines You’ll thank us for the hook-up because Mary Taylor Wine is absolutely crush-worthy in every possible way!

April 14, 2022 S6/EP4: Easter, Chocolate & Wine
In honor of Easter, we wanted to share a different kind of episode with you - one where our producer, Sonja Zant, turns the tables on Mere & Lou by putting them in the "hot seat" with a challenge she already knows they'll find difficult: pairing wine and chocolate! But when you source the chocolates from the very best place, and you intentionally pair each bite with wines you already know you love, an adventure like this was certain to be fun!
We'd like to thank The Chocolate Cow in Sonoma for helping us pick out the most mind-blowingly delicious chocolates (thechocolatecow.com) and Three Fat Guys Wines (threefatguyswines.com) for contributing so much to this experience! Additionally, special thanks to Pere Pons for introducing us to our favorite Cava ever: Miquel Pons! (Talk about a major crush!!) If you'd like to learn more from Meredith on how to go about pairing chocolate with wine, check out this YouTube (https://youtu.be/kCiHgrUS_Po) we created for our Crush Collection members -- it's full of surprises and a lot of tips on how to approach the pairing process! Enjoy!

April 07, 2022 S6/EP 3: Major Crush on Miquel Pons
It was an incredible honor for us to interview Pere Pons -- a beautifully spoken and kind-hearted winemaker from Spain! He is our very first international winemaker interview, and boy was he fabulous and fun to get to know! Join Meredith and Lou as they learn all about Cava and the DO of Penedès. Be sure to check out our Instagram feed this week, too, because we will be posting pictures that Pere shared with us so you can have a visual insight into how this family of winemakers has been making their Cava and still wines for 250 years! And unlike many of the wines that we feature on the show, you might be able to find Miquel Ponz wines at your local wine shop -- as Pere's wines are imported by Winebridge Imports and have a presence in 48 states!
