Welcome to Bottle Talk!
Listen
Bottle Talk with Rick & Paul drops a new episode every other Wednesday, often over the objections of your local wine snob. Catch us here or on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
April 15: We're back. And the world of wine is trembling: We return from napping on the job to detail how the wine world got into its current mess and why the industry needs to laugh more – laughing at us is totally fine, too. Plus, Truly Horrible Wine Writing returns because, no surprise, there’s still writing out there that’s truly horrible – and good for a laugh.
April 29: How Do You Spell Elitist? M-I-C-H-E-L-I-N
Tragically, Michelin is bringing their hair-splitting fussiness to wine. Just what the wine world needs while it manages difficult times – more snooty, expensive, inaccessible guidance that makes people feel like losers. Plus, we answer questions about wine glasses, natural wine and wine recommendations, and our Truly Horrible Wine Writing is self-disciplined with mushroomy acidity.
