"All the Water in the World" Paired with Hedges Family Estate La Haute Cuvee

We’re discussing “All the Water in the World” by @eirencaffall! 🌆💦 This absolutely beautiful book reminds us of the resilience we’re all capable of, especially when we stick with those who love and support us. Inspired by Octavia Butler’s classic “Parable of the Sower,” Caffall takes us on a journey through New York after the cataclysmic effects of climate change have decimated the planet. Water becomes a main character, something to be feared, respected, but also sought after to sustain life. We can’t talk about this book without talking about climate change, so we paired this book with Hedges Family Estate La Haute Cuvee 2019 and discuss Sustainable Washington–an educational sustainability program created over two decades ago.

Pouring Over Chaos: Books and Bottles to Help Survive this Presidency

After a much-needed break and some time to reflect on everything that’s been going on, we’re back and we’re amped up! 💫 In this episode, we take some time to reflect alongside you and talk about the 2024 election, our future, and what we can do to help build a better world. In an effort to do that, we’ve come up with a “Required Reading (and Drinking)" list, to serve as a survival guide for these next few years of Trump. 📚 We do not simply want to preach to the choir, we want to give the choir the tools they need to do the work that will be required of all of us. 🧰We’ve missed you all and we’re always here and always ready to provide necessary resources and support!

“The Idea of You” by Robinne Lee Paired with Pommery Royal Brut Champagne

This episode focuses on “The Idea of You” by Robinne Lee and we can’t wait to discuss it with all of you! Some of you might’ve watched the Prime Video hit movie of the same name, so we figured this was a good time to talk about the adaptation and compare it to the book! We have lots of thoughts about this one! “The Idea of You” centers around art dealer Solène Marchand and her unconventional relationship with boy band heartthrob Hayes Campbell. After having met at the August Moon concert, Solène is swept away into a life completely transformed into something unrecognizable. The two become a viral sensation and Solène is forced to deal with how this complicates her “real” life—particularly, the ways in which this all affects her young daughter. We paired the book with Pommery Royal Brut Champagne N.V., which speaks to the main character’s ties to France and England.

"The Woman in Me" by Britney Spears Paired with Josef Ehmoser Zweigelt Rosé

We are back and coming in hot with “The Woman in me” by Britney Spears. This book was highly anticipated and named Best Book of the Year by Elle, The Washington Post, Rolling Stone, NPR, Financial Times, Vanity Fair, and more. I know we were both itching to get our hands on it! In June 2021, the whole world was listening as Britney Spears spoke in open court. The impact of sharing her voice—her truth—was undeniable, and it changed the course of her life and the lives of countless others. “The Woman in Me” reveals for the first time her incredible journey—and the strength at the core of one of the greatest performers in pop music history. Written with remarkable candor and humor, Spears’ groundbreaking book illuminates the enduring power of music and love—and the importance of a woman telling her own story, on her own terms, at last. In this episode, we pair the book with Josef Ehmoser Zweigelt Rosé 2022 to capture Britney’s feminine and ever-changing spirit. This is one you don’t want to miss!

Popping Off the Page with Chris and Lisa from Glen Hollow

This summer, we spent some time in upstate New York in the Finger Lakes. The Finger Lakes are a group of 11 long, narrow, roughly north–south lakes located directly south of Lake Ontario in an area called the Finger Lakes region in New York, in the United States.A pre-Prohibition wine region, the first vines were planted in Hammondsport, New York in 1829. By 1900, more than 50 wineries were established along the lakes. The Finger Lakes AVA was established in 1982 and boasts two sub-AVAs, the Cayuga Lake and Seneca Lake AVAs, both established in 1988. Today, the region is home to almost 150 wineries and 11,000 acres of vineyards and produces about 54,600 tons of grapes.In addition to wine, the Finger Lakes boasts a strong history, including Seneca Falls, the birthplace of the women’s rights movement in America (and you know we’re all about that). We stayed at Glen Hollow and learned about all the local history and wine. Hosts Chris and Lisa were so gracious, and showed us all around the beautiful region. Tune in to learn more about what Glen Hollow, and the region, has to offer.
