Welcome back! We are strapping on our favourite bathing suits and heading to the beach with a bottle of rose or a cooler of rosé, who am I kidding?  Yep it&apos;s summer and we are going to talk about the Bandol today - so it&apos;s all things rosé.... and also don&apos;t forget about the very heavy tannic reds that they make here too, and whites. This episode is a deep dive on one of the best AOP&apos;s in Provence and what makes this wine special and delicious.  Of course I used some fabulous resources to help me out:  The Oxford Companion to Wine, 4th Edition by Jancis Robinson.  1001 Wines You Must Try Before You Die, by Neil Beckett  https://thewineanalyst.org/bandol-history/ http://www.maisondesvins-bandol.com/en/grape-varieties.cfm https://bandol.cz/?lang=en And I also talk about some great wines:  Domaine du Tempier:  https://www.domainetempier.com/en/homepage/ Chateau Pibarnon:  https://www.pibarnon.com/fr/ If you spot something that needs correcting or you would like to request an episode you can reach out at housewinepodcast@gmail.com or check out the House Wine Instagram @housewinepodcast  This podcast is 100% independent, it is written, narrated and produced by myself, Rachael so if you heard something you liked then scroll down and leave a comment or review, that is the best way that you can support the show.  Until next week, I hope you drink something delicious!  Music Credit: Too Cool by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4534-too-cool License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

This episode is called Cyprus but it really should be called Cyprus AKA Commandaria, the story of the worlds oldest wine still made today. We cover a lot in 23 minutes with this one - The Crusades, Monks, PDO laws, native grapes but I think that the real take away here is that if you come across wine from Cyprus drink it, because every time someone has a wine from Cyprus you are having a wine from one of the first places in the world to ever make wine, and that is f***ing cool.  I used some great resources here:  The Oxford Companion to Wine, 4th Edition by Jancis Robinson https://www.winemag.com/2010/05/05/wines-of-cyprus-nectar-of-the-gods/ https://www.decanter.com/premium/wines-from-cyprus-current-trends-plus-top-bottles-to-seek-out-473948/ I mentioned some wineries:  Kalamos:  https://www.kalamoswinery.com/ KEO:  https://www.cyprusisland.net/cyprus-wineries/keo-winery-mallia EKTO: http://www.etkowines.com/listcategories.asp?parid=11&amp;idcategory=49&amp;ID=&amp;menuid=162 If you spot something that needs correcting or you would like to request an episode you can reach out at housewinepodcast@gmail.com or check out the House Wine Instagram @housewinepodcast  This podcast is 100% independent, it is written, narrated and produced by myself, Rachael so if you heard something you liked then scroll down and leave a comment or review, that is the best way that you can support the show.  Until next week, I hope you drink something delicious!  Music Credit: Too Cool by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4534-too-cool License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

Welcome to House Wine. Every other Wednesday we cover a wine region together and go into all the details that make that place special - and the wine delicious! History, grapes origins, producers and tasting notes will all be covered as we look at some of most famous, and some more obscure wine regions. I am a Certified Sommelier based in Toronto and I believe wine should be for everyone, so if you are just starting out or if you are looking to refresh some knowledge, let's learn together.
