Description
This episode we have Christian Manthei, originally from Arizona and now happily situated in London working for the incredible Wine Treasury who specialise in California wines. The theme is all about Napa Valley. Learn about the different climates within the region, the soil complexity and parts of it’s history, including lots of the big names such as Robert Mondavi and their influences. Learn about the significance of the 1997 vintage along with The Judgement of Paris. We talk about Fume Blanc in detail and spend a bit of time comparing Napa Valley with Bordeaux. Jon gets super opinionated about Robert Parkers effect on Napa Valley and how much he hates points in general (no surprise here!). And as this is an American episode, there is a fair chunk of talk on American accents, and Chris takes us through the US with his versions of those accents!
We are drinking Duckhorn Sauvignon Blanc 2017,Le Geante Scholium Project 2017 and Paraduxx Proprietary Blend 2015.
