SevenFifty Daily’s Guide to Wine Education

Certifiably Certifiable (Talking Wine Certifications For SevenFifty Daily)

Posted on October 18, 2017October 12, 2017 by 1WineDude

Like A True Nature’s Child (Exploring The Wildness Of Grignolino)

Posted on June 29, 2017 by 1WineDude

The latest episode in the Barbera: In The Glass series is now live at MyNameIsBarbera.com, and in it I continue my conversation with Vinchio and Vaglio‘s Tessa Donadieu. This time, we focus on the next “level” of the Barbera quality pyramid in Monferrato (which, as I have written before, I don’t think is a “pyramid”…
