The Arizona Wine Monk Podcast

The other half of the Hidden Hand podcast--here everyone interrogates ME. This was a nice flip of things!

In this podcast, I sit with Tim White, Jason Negron, and some other awesome people associated with Caduceus and Four-Eight Wineworks, focusing on Tim White's newest Project, Hidden Hand. Malvasia makes herself an appearance, as does a Petit Sirah blend. There's a follow-up podcast to this where everyone involved asks me questions which will be next up, so stay tuned next week!

This is a recording of my brief talk on Wine and Social Media at the Verde Valley Wine Consortium.

The TL;DL version of this is that Arizona wineries need to up their social media game.

The first part of this podcast was lost, where we were drinking an Obideh-Merweh Blend from Lebanon, but our other wines here are discussed. In this podcast, I drink with Dani Vorves, and Neil Abell. Hilarity and randomness ensue. Only one Arizona wine in this podcast- the Lei Li Agostina Mourvedre, from Caduceus.

My friend Sarah Lantz is back as we drink the last wine I've not reviewed from Rune Winery: his GSM Rosé.

In this Podcast, the start of the Second Season of the Arizona Wine Monk, Erik and Christine Pope are back from New Mexico for a visit! We drink the Chateau Tumbleweed Verdehlo and proceed to ramble on about everything we can think of.

Good friends, good wine--is there anything better in life?

In this podcast, Gary and I continue our tradition of drinking the Traveler while doing car repairs--this time, it's the red in a can.

On March 15, I did a presentation on geology and terroir of several different wine regions of Arizona at the Southwest Wine Center of Yavapai College. It was a lot of fun. This podcast is slightly more interactive: here's the drop box for the powerpoint for the presentation:

Gary and I drink a whole bunch of Malvasia, from across the world: Italy, Arizona, New Mexico, and California, in a variety of different styles. This is a fun one, guys. Take a listen.

In this podcast, I sit and dine with my friends Christina and Erik Pope while we drink Tannat from Callaghan Vineyards in Sonoita, as well as a California expression of this varietal from Lodi; Inkblot. We also talk nerdy things like fandom, the new Star Wars film, and Dune, as well as a little bit about Christine's own work.

(Spoilers for The Force Awakens, in case you haven't seen that film yet. And Dune, if you haven't read that either.)
