Here is your audio step by step guide on how to blind taste wine....Wine Skool'D style. Let's get it wrong!

It may sound daunting but it's a ton of fun! Blind tasting on a wine lover-level is a great way to from natural organizational skills to assess any wine (I go on a rant in this one bt-dubs) Plus a cool game you can play.

Tomcats and turpentine. I had no idea that Gin had such a CRAZY story! I sat down and chatted with Matt Demma, cocktail geek, bartender, gin expert and he Skool'D me on this spirit's crazy story.

Episode 100!! Wine is everything to me and so is this podcast. What's next for Wine Skool'D? Gonna try and take this to another level.

It's not sweet it's dry. It's not Moscato it's Muscadet. These wines are crazy affordable and have a great story.

I sat down with the wine director of the Partisan in DC after he had just got back from an eye opening visit to Greece. We talk about how why Greek wine is on the rise on the US market and how to understand this under appreciated region.

Txakolina is hard to read easy to pronounce and a delight to drink! What is this wine all about? Let's get into it.

Let's wrap things up with the awesomeness of the Roussillon part of the Languedoc-Roussillon. Some of the most exciting wines of this region are in the mountains.

Part two of my Languedoc-Roussillon series I go deep into Languedoc specifically to highlight the best of what's happening there.

Can we talk about the awesome rebellious culture of the largest wine producing region in the world that you have never heard of? Part one of this series is a primer on the Languedoc-Roussillon region.

Are wine labels getting you down? How about I breakdown what to look for when gazing at that little critter or all those words that don't make sense.

Climate change and global warming is happening. Deal with it. Here is how it effects wine.

Taking a break after the crazy Pinot Primer series I play a wine game. Wine Wars is a great wine trivia game. I am gonna roll some dice and test my own wine knowledge. Do I get them right? Do I get them wrong? Listen and see!

Now that you are fully informed on crazy this wine grape is and hearing some of my experiences with it let's talk about you! I breakdown the various styles of Pinot Noir from around the world that you will find on the American market.

Pinot Noir is from Aliens. Maybe not but damn is it a crazy grape! What is Pinot all about? This is the first in a series where I break down this ancient grape and in the following episodes we'll get into its world domination. Start here!

Grape clones have a very important role in the whole wine thing. As a Star Wars fan I have always been intrigued about clones. Let's go to the Plant Kingdom and break it down before my crazy Pinot Noir episode(s).

There are red fleshed grapes out there. They have a significant historical role. Sometimes they are awesome. Especially a rogue from Eastern Georgia. What? Check it.
