The Wine Situation Shaughn Buchholz and Ellen Clifford

This week it's an OG longford interview with Kristin Barnhisel, the winemaker responsible for the white wines of J. Lohr! They get into how she got going, some science geekery (learn all about clones!), and she also shared the #JLohrwomen movement. Right now applications are open to shadow at the winery! They also pop a couple of bottles, the "Gesture", a blend of Roussanne, Grenache Blanc and Viognier, as well as the Arroyo Vista Chardonnay. Open a bottle yourself and listen in!

This week it is a double dose of Bellas! The wine on tap is a delightful Late Harvest Zinfandel from Bella Winery, and the guest for the Final Five is Bella Crimson, an actor, model, budding stunt person and content creator Elle met on set of the movie she's working on. All that brings us to the other two segments (rife with tangents of course) this month: a catchup on the movie set actor life that has monopolized Elle's month, as well as an installment of On the Food Side where Elle goes deep on what she's getting fed on set. It's a lot in a lot of ways. Grab a snack and a drink and tune in!

This month Elle's got a Grenache by Filaments and wowwwwww is it easy to crush! There's also a life update and a question for listeners, It's all wrapped up with the Final Five questions with Dan Ahdoot, Cobra Kai actor, host of the Green Eggs and Dan podcast, and author of the upcoming Undercooked: How I Let Food Become My Life Navigator and How Maybe That's a Dumb Way to Live.

It's another longform interview! This time Elle and Megan Bell of Margins WIne have a conversation--how Megan came into the wine world, the challenges, the surprises, how she has changed, and what is to come. Open a bottle of Margins and see what it is all about!

A day late for this to be a "November" episode but play along? Elle has had SO much wine activity, from the RAW wine fair to Sicilian dinners to the event in homage to Gran Moraine where Elle both sourced this FABULOUS blanc de blancs from Oregon and met today's guest, Andrea Jaramillo, aka Mas Vino Please. Oohhh! And also there is a revival of On the Food Side where Elle weighs in on butter boards. Never not hard journalism-ing.

This is a long one but a good one! This month, Elle tastes the 2018 No Girls Wines Grenache, quite ironically made by a woman. The name has a cool origin story! She then goes longform in an interview with Cara Patricia of DECANTsf a wine shop in San Francisco. Cara is an advanced sommelier, and she and Elle get into everything from the Court to cats to natural wine, whatever the heck that means.
