This episode is Part 2 with Paul Kalemkiarian who is the owner of the original wine of the month club. We dive into the modern day history of drinking habits in the US and it’s reputation around the world. We look at how The 1976 Judgement of Paris put California on the map, and Paul goes into detail laying out the facts and the key players behind this tasting. We discuss the film Bottleshock which portrayed this important event (although not too factually!). We also talk about the Sideways Movie and how this changed peoples perception towards Merlot and Pinot Noir. If you are a movie buff, I’ve got quite a few facts in there for you. And talking about facts we have a whole section dedicated to those wonderful things called Polyphenols. So if you want to learn about some new health studies and how red wine can do you wonders, listen on.
