In this episode, we’re joined by Vince Anter, host of V is for Vino, for his third appearance on the show. Vince shares insights from his newest episodes, taking listeners on a journey through Burgundy and the Loire Valley—two of France’s most iconic wine regions.

In Burgundy, Vince dives into the region’s understated charm, from the limestone vineyards of Chablis to the rolling hills of the Mâconnais. He highlights how family-run producers focus on their land, creating wines that express the purity of terroir. Vince also explains the distinctiveness of Côte d’Or, where world-class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay thrive, and why lesser-known areas like the Chalonnais offer exceptional value.

We then head west to the Loire Valley, a region brimming with diversity. Vince explores Muscadet’s coastal freshness, the versatility of Chenin Blanc in Anjou and Saumur, and the savory beauty of Cabernet Franc from Chinon and beyond. He emphasizes how the Loire combines terroir-driven wines with remarkable value, making it a must-know region for every wine lover.

Throughout the conversation, Vince shares stories from filming V is for Vino, his approach to educational content, and even a viral moment involving a misunderstood wine opener. Whether you’re planning a trip to France or just exploring its wines, this episode is packed with takeaways.

Listen now and learn:

• What makes Burgundy’s wines—and its culture—so unique.
• How Loire Valley wines balance value, complexity, and diversity.
• Vince’s tips for finding standout bottles at every price point.

In this episode of the Vint Podcast, hosts Billy Galanko and Brady Weller bring you an in-depth conversation with Maurizio Zanella, founder of Ca’ del Bosco and one of the key figures behind the establishment of Franciacorta as a DOCG in 1995. The episode kicks off with exciting news, including the announcement of a giveaway winner for a Coravin Sparkling System and a feature about the Vint Podcast in the Cos Chronicles. (Link: https://www.estournel.com/en/home/cos-chronicle/vint-the-podcast-that-makes-wine-accessible/)  Billy and Brady also discuss the rise of Alta Langa as an emerging sparkling wine region in Italy, contrasting it with the well-established Franciacorta, and highlight the cultural significance of these wines in the global market.

Maurizio Zanella then takes center stage, sharing his fascinating journey from a young visionary in the 1970s to a pioneer of Italian wine’s renaissance. He recounts how he helped transform Franciacorta from an unknown region into a globally recognized name by advocating for strict production standards and rejecting its classification as a sparkling wine. Instead, he emphasizes Franciacorta as a wine of place, defined by its terroir and method rather than its bubbles. Zanella discusses the region’s unique regulations, including low yields, limited pressing, and extended maturation times, which set it apart from Champagne and other sparkling wine-producing regions. 

The conversation touches on topics such as the role of indigenous grape varieties, innovations like zero-dosage styles, and the impact of climate change on viticulture. With reflections on his mentor Luigi Veronelli’s influence and insights into the future of Franciacorta, Maurizio offers listeners a masterclass in winemaking and regional development.

In this episode of The Vint Podcast, hosts Brady Weller and Billy Galanko welcome Humberto Jardim, Managing Director and Head Winemaker of Henriques & Henriques, one of the oldest and most respected Madeira wine producers. Humberto shares his in-depth knowledge of Madeira wine production, sales, its history, and the unique challenges of growing grapes on the steep terrain of the island. He explains how Madeira’s sub-tropical climate, combined with traditional winemaking techniques, creates some of the most complex and long-lived wines in the world.

Throughout the conversation, Humberto provides a detailed look into the intricate aging process that defines Madeira wines. Unlike most wines, Madeira undergoes a unique aging journey that includes exposure to heat and oxygen, which helps develop the rich flavors and remarkable resilience that Madeira is known for. Humberto also discusses the different styles of Madeira—from the bright Sercial to the rich Malmsey—explaining how each grape variety contributes to the wine's diverse flavor profiles.

The episode also explores Henriques & Henriques’ leadership in reviving the rare Terrantez grape on Madeira, which has gained renewed attention due to its complex and nuanced wines. Humberto sheds light on why this particular grape is challenging for growers but holds immense potential for those willing to take the risk.
