So drink along as we kick off season 2 by joining the Unfiltered Wine Club, a completely new wine-education experience. We’re kicking things off by going deep into where Champagne is grown, how Champagne is made, how to read a Champagne label, why we drink it out of white wine glasses, and more!

Loire Valley and the great re-discovery of Cabernet Franc
Episode 18
May 25, 2023
Don’t be fooled by the long winding river and Disney-esque castles that line it. The Loire Valley is way more than just a beautiful place to snap a photo and tour on bicycle. As the home to some of the finest Cabernet Franc’s, Chenin Blanc’s, and Sauvignon Blanc’s in the world, the Loire Valley is as prolific a region as they come. And when it comes to wine and cheese, no region can compete with the local goat cheeses and bright, textured white wines that so often accompany. And yet, the Loire Valley in some ways continues to live in the shadows of its neighboring regions of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But for wine lovers in the know like our guests John and Reed Skupny, the Loire Valley wines are among the best kept secret in the world - offering great pedigree, character, and value across the region. We’re thrilled to welcome John and Reed of Lang & Reed who have been crafting their Loire Valley inspired Cabernet Franc’s and Chenin Blanc in Napa Valley for almost three decades and championing the region from afar in California.

Wine collectors love to talk about the good old days—when cult wines were going for a fraction of the price they are today and didn’t have waiting lists.

On this episode, we’re hunting for the next big thing with the dynamic father-daughter-duo from one of the fastest-growing wine YouTube channels: “Our Pour Decisions.” What are their secrets to spotting diamonds in the rough? What are the ones that got away? And which winemaker do they think will be the next big thing?
