235 - And Now For Something Completely Different

In this weeks episode, Shelley and Phil honor the spirit of Monty Python by trying something completely different, visiting grape varieties that are lesser known, instead of lesser known regions, like a few months ago! In an effort to practice what we preach, this is a venture into the unknown. Grape something different and have a listen! #HappyFriday! #ItsWineTime! #Cheersing #EasterEgg

Wines this episode:

• NV Huber Sekt Rosé ($20 at Pilgrim’s Market)
• 2023 Kuentz-Bas Alsace Blanc ($22  at Pilgrim’s Market)
