Between The Wines Podcast: Recent Episodes
Ginnie Brown
Between The Wines Podcast is a highly palatable dynamic drop, with bold guests and lengthy tannins of lasting (wine) notes. Join your host Gin & a multifaceted guest list as they sip their way through wild wine banter, punny anecdotes and the debunking of old vino myths (and more than a tasty bottle or two). Cheers! (Drink responsibly) Approx 12 standard eps.
In S2 Episode 2.... Gin is spoilt absolutely rotten. She is joined by the charismatic and effervescent Manu (Emmanuel de Madre), ambassador for G.H.Mumm champagne - amongst other exclusive brands. We talk through the incredible Mumm brand and it's illustrious heritage, Gin miss-pronounces it several times #awks, and we enjoy some really special and drool-worthy bottles (check them out on the ep and BTW instagram). We also test Gin's sense of smell with a brain-tricking tasting box created by the brand's cellar master with the help from a neuroscientist.
AND Gin learns the correct way to open and pour champagne....finally.
