Want to casually learn more about wine, plants, and food while having a good laugh? Hosts Gaby Rapp and Nina House do exactly that! Former Chef, Gaby, and Botanist, Nina, will taste a new bottle of wine each week and tell you all about it. You’ll learn how to taste like a sommelier (that’s a fancy wine drinker) and learn more about the grapes you’re drinking so you can impress your date, the wine snob in your life, or a pretentious co-worker! We will let you know what we’ll be drinking each week so you can drink along with us or you can sit back and enjoy the show. New episodes drop on Thursday. @botanyandbarrels

MONTEZUMA
This is the final episode of the season for Botany & Barrels! The show will be taking a little break and will come back new and rejuvenated. For our season finale, we have Nina's final bottle from the Finger Lakes region of New York State from Montezuma Winery. This 2020 La Crescent is unique in that it was designed to withstand frigid temperatures! Listen in to find out more about this Finger Lakes wine.

SMARAZEN
This week we're enjoying the flavors of Spring early with a Micro Mariotti Smarazen Bianco "Pet Nat!" This blend of Trebbiano and Malvasia di Candia has bold, tangy, citrus flavors and is grown in sandy soil on 50-100 year old vines!

QUAIL OAK
This week we'll be trying the very accessible Quail Oak Chardonnay! Typically retailing for around $4, this #California white has been called "unpretentious" with notes of butter and peach. Will this be another example of a low cost, high Quail-ity wine? Or is this one for the birds? Listen to tomorrow's episode to find out!

BETWEEN US
ORANGE. The color of sunsets, fruit, and maybe the color of this wine? That's up for debate. Nina and Gaby try this Field Blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Blanc. Between Us is from LA based Coly Den Haan and Angelica Luna, in collaboration with winemaker Rosanna Stefano on the border of Collio and Friuli in Italy.

BAKARI
We've got some good news... That's right, it's time to open a new bottle of bubbly with Gaby and Nina! No, put down the champagne cause this week we're popping the cork on our first Pét-Nat. What's that? It's short for “pétillant naturel" - a French term meaning “naturally sparkling.” Think a sparkling wine meets a crisp beer: extremly refreshing... and just a little funky. Made from organic Cortese grapes farmed in Italy, could this fresh Bakari Confondo be your new fave?
