Glou Glou wine was mentioned to me a few years ago by someone quite younger than me. I was told... you haven't tried Glou Glou wine?... It's the thing to drink now. Well that bookmarked a place in my mind. Fast forward to about a month ago and I spotted a 2022 Las Jaras Glou Glou bottle at a local wine shot. You just know I had to grab it up and in this episode I will be tasting and talking about Glou Glou wine.

The wine of the evening is a 1999 Bruno Giacosa Le Rocche del Falletto di Serralunga d'Alba. Over the years I have been asked for wine shop recommendations and why I choose where I go. Asked HOW to shop in them and what I shop for. I will be naming some I have loved going to over the years and why. Maybe you have some you love and would like to share with me.

I started smoking cigars 13 years ago, so I may know a few things about them. We discovered Industrial Cigar Lounge in Frisco, TX where I met Jamond of Definition Cigars. We discussed what I do with wine and his cigar brand and next thing I knew I had a sampler pack sent to me! Jamond sent me his cigars to pair with wine on my podcast. This is just the first of many cigar episodes so follow to stay in the know.

Rose wine, do I like it? I thought I would choose a wine that is not one of my top picks. I do have some in my collection so I grabbed this 2018 Chateau de Trinquevedel Rose from Tavel to taste. Rose is something we are probably all familiar with on some level but do not know too much about. So, I am going to dive into this and see what we can talk about below the surface.

Long Meadow Ranch is in several of my clients wine cellars. It has a really interesting story and history. I have not personally had any of their wines as of yet but tonight I will be opening a bottle of their 2019 Sauvignon Blanc. I have been working hard days in one of my clients wine cellars that has over 5,000 bottles and this wine is going to go down really easy.

Tasting a Veltliner tonight and talking about Wimmer Czerny winery. This wine is the "pearl" of their collection and can't wait to try it! We are having really bad storms here in TN so The Pomm Somm is glued by my side.

Riesling is one of my top grape varietals and I want to share with you why. The wide range of types of Rieslings to what you can pair them with. I give you a brief dip into Rieslings while sipping on a 2016 Nollen Erben Bernkasteler Kurfurstlay Spatlese Riesling.

Cider has deep American roots. However, it's enjoyed all over the world and America isn't even top in consumption! We have a quick chat about cider history worldwide but I get lost in Washington's Cider and alcohol history. I taste Seattle Cider Co's new light cider Vivid release. Washington had too good of an untold story to pass up.
