S.6 Ep.9 (Part 2) Kristie Tacey: Wine's Hidden Narratives and CBD Encounters

Send us a Text Message.

Embark on a journey through the transformative world of Riesling with our charismatic guest, Kristie Tacey of Tessier Wines, as we shatter American misconceptions of this multifaceted varietal. From my own dining epiphanies to Kristie's plans for skin-contact white wines, we celebrate the release—and quick disappearance—of the Tessier 2022 Soul Love, leaving us yearning for just one more sip. Revel in the stories of Alsatian delights and get a peek behind the curtain of the natural wine movement, paired with a hearty dose of transparency talk and its impact on the wine industry.

Ever wondered how a graphic health warning might change your next bottle of wine? We take a deep look at government's hand in alcohol consumption awareness, comparing the potential effects on the industry to the seismic shifts caused by similar warnings in the tobacco world. Kristie helps us navigate the cultural ripples from Ireland to South America, and we ponder whether the pursuit of transparency will shake up our buying habits as profoundly as the latest scientific findings disrupt public perception.

And for those with a taste for the novel, we explore the tantalizing realm of CBD-infused wines, considering whether they're complicating or enhancing our imbibing experience. To top off the episode, I share the comedies and melodies currently fueling my life—think Lonely Island and Waxahatchee, with a dash of Chastity Belt for good measure. As we raise a glass to networking with just the right touch of CBD confidence, join us for laughs, insights, and the delightful complexities that come with the ever-evolving world of alcohol and pleasure.
