In this episode, which has been teased about for a while, I finally brought my stash of older Malvasia Bianca bottles from Arizona Stronghold to the winery itself, where Matthew Raica and Kim Musket joined me for a vertical tasting of every Malvasia Bianca vintage made by Arizona Stronghold from 2010 to 2018. How well does Arizona Malvasia age? Whe…

Gary has been a fixture in the Wine Monk Podcast for over half of the episodes I recorded, (as well as the sister podcast, The Make America Grape Again Podcast) so I figured it was about time that I actually make him sit in the hot seat for once, and talk about his own label, Greater Than Wines. In this episode, I interrogate Gary while we drink th…

Pinot Noir is a grape that is steeped in mystery and elegance. The unbilled co-star and arguable protagonist of the film 'Sideways,' Pinot Noir has long had a cloak of mystery surrounding it. Pinot has always been a cult favorite.A while back, I did a tasting of Villa Maria wines with Snooth Media, and I wondered just exactly how New Zealand Pinot …

In this episode of the Arizona Wine Monk podcast, Elizabeth Krecker and I sit outside on a starry night and drink the 2014 Salvatore Vineyards Sangiovese alongside the 2012 Licini Brunello di Montalcino. Both of these bottles were of equal value and from small, pocket-sized vineyards. Hope you enjoy!Interestingly, Licini is one of the few pre-phyll…

In this podcast, I drink the Sangiovese Pet-nat from Sand-Reckoner with Isobel Luna, harvest hand and tasting room wine slinger for Sand-Reckoner!

In this episode, my friend Megan Coscia and I sit with two bottles of Arneis; a dry, aromatic white wine. The grape is originally from the Piedmont of Italy, where the name translates to "little rascal" in a local dialect. We sit, comparing a Piedmont Arneis to one from the high deserts of Willcox, to talk about some of the differences between Old …

This is a bit of a silly podcast, where Gary and I decided to torture ourselves with hot sauce and (sometimes bad) wine pairings. The pain was the name of the game. Cringe with us in... THE PODCAST OF PAIN.The photo has nothing to do with it, other than Gary is holding two things that are pointy and can be used for pain.…

If you've ever been curious about a lot of …

In this podcast, I drink with Emil Molin, Joe Bechard, Kris Pothier, Dean Pfanis, and Steven Elston. The focus of this podcast is Nebbiolo.Some grapes in Arizona do amazing things that compete directly (or surpass) the wines made from them in their motherland. Other grapes, not so much. Why does Nebbiolo fall into this category? Take a listen and f…

I've delayed posting this podcast for a long time because of Reasons, but the camaraderie and wine should still be shared... and here it is! In this podcast, we compare the Wild Will E. Cox from Chateau Tumbleweed (100% Arizona grapes) to a classic Vieux Telegraphe Châteauneuf-du-Pape from the Rhone. Who will win? You'll possibly be surprised. (Sin…

It is a dark and windy night in Sedona. The wind rattles and shakes the walls of the yurt. Your friend Robin reaches into her cold pack. "Mourvèdre," she whispers. You pull out the 33 Degrees Mourvèdre, and a Bulgarian Mavrud. "It is time for the ritual," you reply. "Bring forth the glasses!"Welcome to a special podcast with my friend Robin Black, …

Warning: this might be the nerdiest podcast I've ever done. In this episode, my girlfriend and I sit with Richard Barrett, a member of Capella Romana, and his wife Megan. Along with wine, we also talk Byzantine music, the evolution of said music from Greco-Roman Roots, and why if it's not Baroque, don't fix it. There's a lot of geeky information he…

I just got back from visiting my girlfriend Bess out in Rhode Island and let me tell you, I already miss the cool waters of the Atlantic Ocean after just a couple days back here in the desert. Luckily, I've got a nice stash of soothing Rosé to drink to cool me down. And, I even take some of my goods with me back east. I decided I'd take my can of t…

A month ago, I bought myself a bottle of the Three Wells distillery Gin, made with Arizona botanicals. I don't know much about cocktails, but Gary does... so he made some with me and we proceeded.... okay, I proceeded... to get pretty schnockered. Here's some instructions on cocktails, a little bit of history about cocktails, and us having fun, wit…

Gewürztraminer is one of the noble varietals of Alsace, and I decided I needed to compare one of these classics of the Old World to Arizona Stronghold's major award winner, side-by-side. And then one from Rhode Island too. Because I was there.Από τον Cody Vladimir Burkett

I love how I said this podcast would "probably" be posted three weeks after the winter solstice. "before the inauguration." I am clearly the biggest slacker EVER. Anyway, here's another podcast I recorded with Gary--waaay back in December. Spoilers for Rogue One... if you haven't seen it yet. Also warning for some political grumbling. I'm normally …

This is a bit of a long podcast, but it was a fun one to record, and was made entirely spur of the moment. Amber came into the tasting room, told me she was studying wine in Italy, we had a great time talking wine, and she said she loved Vermentino. It just so happened that I had a Vermentino made by Rob Hammelman, one of the best winemakers in Ari…
