The Real Wine Show: 10 Minutes, 10 Questions w/ Salvatore Napolitano
Scholar, philosopher, educator, professional Italian wine authority... Dr. Salvatore Napolitano is one of the most erudite and insightful people in the business. We sat down with Salvatore at his hotel in downtown Detroit before he set out for a day of evangelizing for renowned Sardegna winery, Sella & Mosca. Of Italian origin, his passion for classical studies brought him to the USA, and today, based in New York, he travels the country spreading the good word about the amazingly diverse world of Italian wine. We had a great chat, and we hope you enjoy listening! Thanks for coming, and don't forget to subscribe; it helps us keep the good content coming!

It's the episode of the vintage! Well, that's up for you, the listeners, to decide, but we think it's great!

Hot tip of the show? Buy dessert wine at auction!

The Real Wine Show S6 E4 feat. Mike Fifer, Lori Moss, & Diego Aliste
For Season 6 Episode 3 the show panelists are Mike Fifer of Imperial Beverage, Lori Moss of Little Guy Wine, and Diego Aliste of Stadtgarden Detroit. They're three distinct personalities, each with their own pathway into wine, but they vibe great and fun conversation flows easily, making this a perfect episode when you really need to have your focus elsewhere and don't want to feel like you can't follow the show, but also don't want to listen to senseless, inane, blather. Have we broken the code for fab podcasts, or are we just lucky to sit down with really great folks? Take a listen and let us know what you think!
Join hosts Chaad Thomas, Matt Kuhr and Kristie Brablec, along with their panel of guests, on this fun, insightful, and slightly irreverent wine game show! You’ll meet personalities from across the wine world, including winemakers, importers, wholesalers, sommeliers and retailers, and learn about how they indulge and experience their passion for wine through a segment of challenging true-or-false news stories and an emotive blind tasting, where we ask the panelists to talk about how a wine makes them feel! Through humor and seriousness, we open wide the door to the world of wine!
