To celebrate my 25th Episode, I decided to do a live taping before a studio audience at Curiosity Coffee https://curiositycoffeebar.com/, awesome coffee shop in Columbia, SC.
This episode starts with featured guest, Charlie Lassor, Lux Wine Representative for Gallo Family Wines. Charlie talks with me about the biz, the world of Gallo, J Vineyards, Brancaia, Dave Phinney/Orin Swift, and why wine matters!
And in lieu of my normal Take Five Segment, I invited some great guests and F&B veterans for a little Q&A.
Steve Cook, owner of Saluda's Restaurant https://www.saludas.com/, and featured guest from Ride Between the Wines Episode 7: "Now We're Cooking"
Brian Hogue, CS, Sommelier for Hall's Chophouse https://hallschophouse.com/locations/south-carolina-sc/columbia/, and featured guest from Ride Between the Wines Episode 12: "Somm...where? Over the Rainbow?"
This episode also features Robert Gardiner Trio playing live (I have a house band!!!)
So listen up, and enjoy!
