Socially distanced visits with (top) the Bouchaine gang and (above) The Nerd Stalker – Adolfo Foranda!

Way back in March we suddenly had a lot more time on our hands. So you know how I kept busy, if you haven’t yet then now is the time for a The Varietal Show replay of my first year conversations and tastings!

Some of your favorites perhaps or something new to inspire your inquisitive mind. The playlist includes such notables as Bouchaine Vineyards, Bambury Wine Collection, Perli Vineyard, Petrified Forest, Tablas Creek to do just a little name-dropping. . . Sit down, login and watch through with a glass of your favorite anything!

Constant Disruptions on The Varietal Show!

Leave a comment

Even in the days before distance learning there was still a thing known as Constant Disruptions, as the parents of winemaker Shane Finley can attest to. Ergo the name of his wine which we sample and discuss on this episode of The Varietal Show!

Follow that up with our previous conversation about Shane Wines, and remember to LIKE, SHARE and FOLLOW my channel for more exciting weekly episodes on Tuesdays at 12:30pm!
