Episode 6 – Tariffs, Top 100s, and a Wild Year in Wine

This episode’s wine is Wine Enthusiast’s #1 Wine of 2019 – Nino Franco “Rustico” Prosecco Superiore DOCG!

2019 was a wild year in wine. From fires to tariffs to industry consolidation to a slew of Top 100 lists, there was no shortage of topics for Pete and VinoMike to cover.

The duo kicks off this special year-end review with a look at the Top 100 lists from Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, and James Suckling. There is always a huge variation and 2019 was no different.

The biggest story right now – tariffs. Your hosts throw in their two cents on the controversy. If you would like to make your feelings known to the trade representative, submit it here.

The rest of the episode is a roundup of the other big stories of the year. Also, Pete and Mike talk about their favorite wines of 2019. VinoMike couldn’t remember the Champagne’s name, but it is Ulysse Collin. Pete’s selection of Diamonds in Space 2016 is gone, but you can check out other Route 101 wines here.

Happy New Year from That Wine Pod!

As a reminder, Pete and Mike do not accept advertising dollars from wineries or wine wholesalers. They purchase the bottles they taste on the show. These are not paid endorsements. They could use the money, so this integrity thing sucks.
