The W25 ladies mix up some pisco-based cocktails this week, and unpack the 411 on the national spirit of Peru. Also produced in Chile, pisco has a long history, and we’re diving into the grapes, styles, and its versatility. We hope you pick up a pisco nugget to add to your brandy or cocktail repertoire.   Show notes at WineTwoFive.com

Entertainment, education & consumer empowerment; everyday drinking for everyday people. Wine with lunch? Yes please! Wine-Two-Five is an entertaining wine podcast series featuring wine educators who like to drink their homework & have fun teaching. 

Val and Steph believe in wine with lunch and not punching a clock when pulling a cork. In other words, drinking every day - any time of the day - is acceptable. And classy.

Breakfast wines extend beyond the Mimosa. Breakfast is just food. Wine goes with food. Whether you're having wine for breakfast or breakfast for dinner, we stand by breakfast with wine - any time. Also, a listener in Scotland knew last week's Pod Quiz & called in to school us on some more Dubonnet facts. Finally, as you all know, it's not five o'clock and we don't care.
