I teach a series of Burgundy classes here at the winery every winter and spring, starting with Burgundy 101 for some good solid basics, and then up to the Graduate Class for more in-depth and burg-geeky stuff. We’ll start here with part 1 of Burgundy 101, and then will follow up in the weeks to come with parts 2 and 3.

If you’ve been mystified, trying to figure out what Burgundy is all about - this is a great place to start. Enjoy the podcast - and I’ll put up some visuals here on the page that should help this all make more sense. Cheers!

I’m excited to get this series up and running, and hope to have new programs ready to roll on a semi-regular basis - meaning as often as this wacky schedule of a vigneron/importer allows!

 

Here then is Part 2 of my conversation with Allen Meadows - who is not only Burghound, I should point out, but also a leading writer/critic on Pinot Noir wines from Oregon and California. Look for his coverage of domestic Pinots in his next issue, which launches in early October, I believe. For more info on Burghound.com, click here.

 

In part 2 we got into a lot of geeky Burg stuff, but it’s not so far gone that it’s for geeks only. No matter what your level of of knowledge or interest in the complexities of Burgundy, it’s always inspirational to listen to someone who is, in my opinion, the best in the world at what they do. Enjoy!

In my previous incarnation I was a national radio personality for over 25 years, and I’m thrilled to get back “on the air” and talking about Pinot (which beats playing the same Michael Jackson record every two hours, believe me!) We’ll have interviews, mini-seminars, conversation, education, and whatever else sounds like a good idea at the time!

 

We’re honored to kick-off the series with an in-depth conversation with Mr. Burghound himself, Allen Meadows. Since 2000 Allen has been the publisher of the quarterly Burghound.com, which has quickly become the reference standard for Burgundy reviews and coverage of the world’s most exciting and complex wine region. Allen spends a minimum of four months each year living and tasting in Burgundy, and is perhaps the world’s leading authority on the wines, vineyards, producers, and history of all things Burgundian.

 

Part 1 of our conversation is up now - and we’ll have Part 2 up within the next week. Enjoy!
