Wines: 2020 Daou Pessimist Red Blend and a 2018 Antiche Terre Amarone della Valpolicella

Only a small number of people have earned both the  Master of Wine (MW) and Master Sommelier (MS) credentials. Today's guest, Doug Frost, is in that distinguished number. He is also an author and wine consultant based in Kansas City, Missouri.

Not only is Doug one of three individuals in the world to hold simultaneously the MW and MS titles, Wine Spectator has bestowed the accolade of Master of Spirits on Frost. He is also co-owner of the winery, Echolands, based in Walla Walla, Washington.

In this episode, Doug joins us to talk about the Wine Pinnacle Awards, an association of somms worldwide submitting their best selections for certain categories of wines that are accessible to most, if not all countries.

Listen to learn of Doug's career, the Wine Pinnacle Awards, and, of course, our thoughts on the two wines we taste this episode.

Wines: 2020 Springfield Estate Albarino, 2020 a Life From Stone Sauvignon Blanc, Over the Mountain Syrah Rosé, and 2018 Dieu Donné Merlot.

Kicking the year of fabulous guests off with TWO great ones and FOUR wines!!

Our guests today are Patrick Dupree and Lorna Daniel-Dupree. Patrick is a cinematographer, photographer, and WSET Certified. Lorna is also a photographer and cinematographer. Both have a passion and love for wine and South Africa and established Stellies Wines in order to share both with the world.

Lorna grew up in S.A. and met her husband, Patrick on-set of a well-known reality show filming there. Both enjoy visiting South African wineries in their downtime. They found it difficult to find the wines they loved when they moved to their California home, so they solved that problem by establishing Stellies Wines.

Listen to hear more of their story and how we enjoyed these FOUR wines!
