  • What are apple grape co-ferments? The rise of fruit wines in America
    Dec 10 2025

    Apple wine? Apple cider? Apple & grape co-ferments? Let’s clear this up.

    In today’s episode, we dig into the line between cider and wine, and how American producers have been experimenting with fruit & grape co-ferments for far longer than you might think. From early settler fermentations to today’s modern craft winemakers, fruit fermentation has shaped American wine culture for centuries.

    Whether you’re team hard cider or team wine, this episode breaks down the history and why these bottles deserve a place in the conversation about U.S. wine.

  • What is Cabernet Franc? From America’s oldest winery to modern day New York wine
    Dec 3 2025

    Hudson Valley New York isn't one of America's most known wine regions, but it has one major claim to fame: it’s home to America’s oldest continually operating winery, a piece of early U.S. wine history that predates most of what we think of as “American wine.”

    In this episode, we'll take a look at that history and then focus on two modern wines from the region. We'll taste a Cabernet Franc and a Cabernet Franc Rosé from Fjord Vineyards. These bottles show how Cab Franc expresses itself in a true cool-climate setting, and how producers in the Hudson Valley are shaping their own identity today.

    If you’re curious about New York wine, Cabernet Franc, or how this region is evolving, this tasting offers a grounded look at what’s happening in the valley right now.
