  • so fun! and informative too!

    This podcast is such a fun little escape. I get so excited every time I see a new episode. I can put it on during the work day or while doing chores around the house and I feel like I’m transported to happy hour/wine tasting with my girlfriends. I somehow manage to learn something every episode too that I end up sharing with my real life girlfriends and it makes me feel all cultured and cool. Thanks, Allie and Julie for making it so easy and entertaining to learn about wine! Cheers!!
