This podcast helps me prepare for beverage industry and sommelier certification exams covering wine, beer, and spirits.
An overview of Gewürztraminer, a beautiful, aromatic white grape planted famously in Alsace, but also across cooler climates in Italy, Hungary, Romania, Croatia, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Russia, and New Zealand.
An overview of Sangiovese, the primary red grape planted in Tuscany. It forms the basis for all Chianti blends and is the only grape permitted for Brunello di Montalcino.
This podcast series is comprised of short five-to-ten-minute episodes about various beverage topics covering wine, beer, and spirits. Subjects will include grape varieties, wine regions, viticultural and cellar practices, blind tasting tips, and any other information that may appear on a theory, blind tasting, or practical examination associated with most internationally recognized beverage certification courses.
So if you are preparing for one of these certifications, yourself, or if you’re just a casual consumer who has an interest in learning more about what you’re drinking, this podcast hopefully satisfies that craving.
