Episode 2 - Brick Barn Wine Estate, where Moldova meets Buellton, CA
03/19/21 • 42 min
Join us Inside the Bunghole as we visit the beautiful Brick Barn Wine Estates on the outskirts of Santa Barbara, in the Santa Ynez wine region. We sit down with Moldovan wine maker Adrian Bolshoi and share some great wines and hear his fascinating story! Adrian's journey begins in Moldova, a small country sandwiched between Romania and Ukraine with a rich history of wine making, working the family vineyard with his grandparents. He shares his adventure to the US and how he ends up in Buellton, CA with only two suitcases and a dream.
He shares with us a beautiful Chardonnay, casked in a concrete egg, a late harvest Viognier and an amazing estate grown 2017 Cabernet Franc, Fatalist, which right down to the bottle defines elegance.

Episode 1 - Little wine shop around the corner
Raise your glass to sommelier Katie Finn of @desertwineshop111 (Desert Wine Shop on 111, Palm Desert, CA) as she takes us on a journey of Rieslings! We also learn a bit about what sacrifices one makes to become a sommelier, how she buys for a boutique wine shop and why you should appreciate and support YOUR local wine shop!
We debunk myths and common misconceptions of this most complex of grapes, the Riesling. We talk about the climate where this amazing grape flourishes and what the commonalities within Rieslings and the differences you can expect (and why).
The 3 very beautiful and different wines we explore are @reevewines (Reeve Prism, A Mendocino County California wine), @forgecellars (Forge Cellars of Seneca Lake, NY Dry Riesling Classique), and @weingut_nik_weis (a Wiltinger Kabinett from Nik Weis of the Mosel region, Germany). Check out our social media posts for fun photos of our experience and wine labels.
Cheers!

What's happening in Walla Walla? Dunham Cellars founder Joanne Dunham
Walla Walla, Washington. Home to sweet onions and now a booming wine economy! We sit down with Joanne Dunham, founder of Dunham Cellars, one of the regions pioneers, blazing the trail for Washington wine makers. We talk about the founding of her winery with her husband, Mike and son, Eric. We talk about how this farmer's daughter, who never saw herself growing into the life of a vintner, became founder of one of Walla Walla's most trusted and celebrated wineries.
Dunham Cellars has been family owned and operated for over 25 years, with 2 estate vineyards that provide the foundation for their acclaimed wines. We talk to Joanne about the growing wine scene in Walla Walla, her portfolio of delicious wines, some of their pet (and I mean pet) projects and how the vineyard has grown over the years. We also talk about how important the wine club members are to Dunham Cellars and what benefits the members receive for their loyalty!
Come join Pam, James and Don as they find out more about Dunham Cellars and Walla Walla, WA in this fun episode.
