The Cellar Routes Podcast

thecellarroutespodcast

The Cellar Routes Podcast is where wine, wanderlust, and well worn pages meet. Every two weeks we pour a glass, explore new destinations, navigate the visa maze, and get lost in a good book because the best journeys happen with a bottle in hand and a story to tell. Bottles, Books & Boarding Passes: where every episode is a new route worth taking.

    First week in Australia

    We made it to Australia… and our first week did NOT disappoint. 😅In this episode of Unfiltered Uncorked, we’re breaking down everything that happened during our first 7 days working harvest at Australian wineries — from absolute airport chaos to cleaning tanks, cultural differences, and realizing we’re about to process thousands of tons of fruit.

    Dry January??

    We break down common wine faults like cork taint, brett, oxidation, volatile acidity, sulfur, and microbial spoilage — plus share real winery stories, tasting room chaos, and how an oxidized rosé somehow became a crowd favorite. We wrap things up with some Australia daydreaming and a chaotic round of an incoherent word game. Educational, unfiltered, and just the right amount of unhinged. Sip happens.

    Prosecco-Ho-Ho

    We’re closing out the year the only way we know how — mimosas, Christmas chaos, and zero filters. This episode has Prosecco education, family holiday stories, Santa debates, toxic Christmas traits, and way too many opinions before noon. Thank you for listening, laughing, and drinking along with us this year. We wouldn’t trade this chaos for anything 🥂

    The Joey Episode

    The Joey Episode is finally here. 🍷 Our winemaker steps out from behind the barrels to taste an Oregon Pinot with us, unpack the aroma wheel, and spill 20 years’ worth of real winemaking stories. We’re talking harvest chaos, region-to-region secrets, why Pinot is a dramatic diva, and what people always get wrong about the wine industry. It’s equal parts chaotic, hilarious, and genuinely educational — classic Uncle Joey energy.
Sip, laugh, learn. Stay unfiltered. Stay uncorked.

    Gobble Gobble, Sip Sip

    We dive into Texas terroir, sip a Texas red blend, and attempt a two-minute paint-swap challenge that goes wildly off the rails. Think Cab Franc facts, Thanksgiving snacks, and zero artistic talent.Sip with us, laugh with us, and remember—sip happens!

Then we end with a Snoop-inspired riff-off that goes completely off the rails.Grab a glass and enjoy—this one is a ride.

    Boo-zy Behavior

    Get ready, you wicked little wieners — it’s Halloween on Unfiltered Uncorked! 👻
This week we dive into orange wine — what it is, where it came from, and how Mikaela accidentally made a wine slushie. 🍊🥶 Between carving pumpkins, and debating who’d make the better DJ, this episode is pure chaos, laughter, and wine education rolled into one. So grab a glass (or a pumpkin cup), light a candle, and join the spooky sip sesh.
🎃 Stay Unfiltered. Stay Uncorked. Sip Happens.
