| 07 Apr 2021 | Secrets of a Somm with James Lloyd, Head Sommelier at Restaurant Gordon Ramsay | 00:18:08 | |
In this podcast we dive into what makes a masterful sommelier with James Lloyd, Head Sommelier at Restaurant Gordon Ramsay. Starting his career in wine in 1999, James has over 20 years experience from working with importers, wine producers and as a Sommelier for some of the world's greatest chefs. It all started in a hotel in South London moving to Gordon's flagship, Restaurant Gordon Ramsay (3* Michelin) in 2002 as a Commis Sommelier where he moved to Assistant Head Sommelier and remained until a move to New York as part of the opening team for Gordon and stayed for a year. After 5 years with the group, a move to Italy beckoned, in Piedmont, where he worked as an intern for Cantina Ceretto assisting in the production of their Barolo's, Barbaresco's and international blends, learning the ropes of wine making first hand. Once the harvest was complete he relocated to Lake Garda to take on a Sommelier position. Moving back to London in 2008, James initially became Head Sommelier for Marcus Wareing before moving to an importer, selling to Michelin Star Restaurants and top Hotels in London to gain more knowledge and to improve his skills as a wine buyer, to learn marketing and understand importing. Returning to Restaurants, James worked with Pierre Koffmann, Alain Ducasse, Playboy and consulted in the City of London before returning home to Restaurant Gordon Ramsay in 2016 as Head Sommelier where he is based, but his responsibilities are spread across the group and also being responsible for wine investment. Having just celebrated two milestones of maintaining 3 Michelin Stars for 20 years and 10 years of working along side Gordon he is looking forward to many more.

In today’s episode, we will hear from Clay Roup, the Director of Education and a Curator at Texas Wine Club, as he delves into the details of winemaking in Texas. We are covering everything from the best grape types for wine production to topical viticultural issues to the various wine styles sought after by many a wine-lover today.

| 12 Jan 2023 | Felix Cheung, AKA “Fat CheFelix”, on food and what it means to pursue your dreams | 00:24:52 | |
“Who do I want to be in five years?” This is what Felix Cheung, AKA “Fat CheFelix” asked himself before he quit his successful career as a tech engineer to pursue his passion. With no professional experience, he moved to Melbourne where he started cooking and eventually gained a huge following both on and off-line. Felix continues his rise with sold-out pop-up dinners where he experiments with bold flavor combinations and locally sourced ingredients. There is no doubt that his next endeavor, a solo restaurant project in Melbourne, will be a hit. The restaurant is slated to open later this year and feature all the best of Felix’s former menus. I sat down with Felix to ask him about his inspiration for cooking, his thoughts on local ingredients, and his advice for upcoming chefs. Our conversation ended up covering a lot more, including his decision-making process for taking risks and his outlook on life. Besides being an award-winning chef, Felix is the perfect example of what happens when you ignore the doubts and expectations, and pursue your dreams. In other words, you won’t want to miss today’s episode!

| 13 Nov 2021 | The Bordeaux Appeal: Why Chinese investors are flocking to Bordeaux | 00:34:59 | |
The Bordeaux wine region of France has always attracted international investment. As the Asian economy developed, individuals and beverage companies looked abroad to diversify their portfolios. In the mid 1980’s, Japanese investors like Suntory started to buy Estates in Bordeaux. Over the past decade, it’s estimated that close to 160 Chateaux’s have shifted hands to Hong Kong and Mainland Chinese investors. In today’s podcast, we sit down with Howard Kwok to discuss his family’s vision for investing in wineries on the right bank of Bordeaux, and what drew them to Bordeaux in the first place. Howard Kwok is the co-owner of Vignobles K, a group of vineyards located in Bordeaux, France. Howard's family bought their first vineyard, Chateau Haut Brisson, in 1997, and is the first Chinese investor to acquire a vineyard in France. Today, their holding company Vignobles K manages 7 properties in the right bank of Bordeaux, including Chateau Bellefont Belcier, a Saint Emilion Grand Cru Classé, and Chateau Tour Saint Christophe, often described as one of the best values of the region. Wines by Vignobles K have received significant praises by professional critics and wine enthusiasts alike, and are widely distributed around the world. Howard is originally from Hong Kong. After graduating from Harvard Business School, he worked briefly at the management consulting firm McKinsey & Company and joined his family's business in 2015.

| 30 Jul 2024 | Beyond Flavors: Mastering the Art of Blind Wine Tasting with Nick Jackson Master of Wine | 00:27:45 | |
In this episode, we sit down with Nick Jackson, Master of Wine and author of the acclaimed book "Beyond Flavour: The Indispensable Handbook to Blind Wine Tasting." Nick shares his personal journey to becoming a Master of Wine and the pivotal moment when he realized the importance of focusing on a wine's structure rather than just its flavors. Nick's wine career began at the University of Cambridge, where he was a member of the successful Cambridge University blind wine tasting team. After earning a PhD in Theology, he worked as an auction specialist at Sotheby's in London and later as a buyer for Sotheby's Wine retail store in New York. In 2018, Nick left Sotheby's to start his own fine wine advisory business, Vintage Variation LLC, where he advises private clients, retailers, and other wine businesses. In "Beyond Flavour," Nick delves into the concept of tasting wines based on their structure and texture, rather than relying solely on flavors. He argues that assessing a wine's acid structure for whites and tannin structure for reds is a more reliable indicator of a wine's identity, especially as producers and regions continue to push the boundaries of traditional winemaking. Nick shares insights on how to navigate the nuances of tannin profiles in Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Pinot Noir, as well as the challenges of distinguishing Chardonnay and Riesling from specific regions. Listeners will come away with a deeper understanding of the art of blind wine tasting and how they can embark on this tasting journey with Nick's guidance and his book "Beyond Flavour."

| 28 Jul 2019 | Never Bet Against Pizza with Alex Cree, Cofounder of Baozza | 00:35:59 | |
First launched in Beijing and now in Shanghai, Baozza is becoming a hot trend. It's the perfect example of assimilation of cultures. Baozza is still a very traditional bao, made with great care to preserve its characteristic softness and fluffy texture. The pizza stuffing is also traditional because Alex uses imported Italian tomatoes and mozzarella to achieve the universal, beloved pizza flavor. “China doesn’t really have the dollar slice; it generally hasn’t been a really successful category,” Alex says. Baozza is looking to be a new category and even a substitute for pizza for some people. While some would see this as pushing boundaries just remember, never bet against Pizza!

| 27 Dec 2020 | Aveine Smart Wine Aerator: The game-changing device we all need | 00:24:06 | |
What if there was a device you could just attach to the neck of a wine bottle and it would immediately replicate the effect of a wine that has been aerated for 24 hours? Today we get tech-savvy with Nicolas Naigeon, founder and CEO of Aveine, and discuss his game-changing invention - the first wine aerator controlled by a smartphone app.
Using an AI-enriched database, the Aveine app identifies the wine scanned and calibrates the Aveine Smart Wine Aerator to the ideal level of aeration for that particular wine - from 1 minute to 24 hours - instantly. The Smart Aerator precisely calculates the ideal aeration of any wine, allowing immediate consumption upon opening of the bottle.

| 21 Oct 2020 | Are Computers Already Better Wine Tasters Than Humans? A Conversation With Katerina Axelsson, CEO of Tastry | 00:21:36 | |
Can a computer taste wine better than a wine expert?
Today we speak with Katerina Axelsson, Founder & CEO of Tastry, to discuss how technology is refining the way we analyze wines by training a computer how to taste.
Axelsson also shares with us how Tastry’s technology helps wineries use data to identify the wines that will perform best in market.
Tastry is a sensory sciences company that uses advanced chemistry, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to match consumers to products they will love. She is a graduate of Cal Poly with a B.S. in Chemistry. While in school, Katerina worked at a custom-crush facility and noticed that one of their batches imprinted with two different labels received drastically different industry scores: it was then that she knew there had to be a more science-based way to score wine. Thus, Tastry was born. Find out more about Tastry’s unique technology: https://tastry.com

| 19 Feb 2023 | The Future of Alternative Alcohol with Bonbuz CEO, Fay Behbehani | 00:30:50 | |
The future of drinking is upon us, and we look to it with enthusiasm and curiosity! In recent years, more and more people have decided to ditch alcohol. This social shift sparked one woman’s vision of a beverage company focused on creating alcohol-free drinks that give people that same happy, buzzed feeling as your average cocktail—without the anxiety and stress of overdoing it or waking up hungover. So in 2020, she took the plunge and founded Bonbuz, a Los Angeles-based company that crafts function-forward, non-alcoholic options for those who prefer to steer clear of booze.
Join us in today’s episode as we explore the relatively new frontier of alcohol alternatives with Bonbuz CEO and President Fay Behbehani. Together, we will examine the inspiration behind Bonbuz, active agents that mimic the buzz of alcohol, up-and-coming ingredients in the drinking industry, and the reasons behind this trend toward non-alcoholic products.

| 22 Apr 2022 | Wine, Art, Creativity and the Metaverse - Connecting all the dots with Jean-Charles Boisset | 00:24:47 | |
Today’s podcast is about finding creativity and inspiration through wine. In this episode we sit down with Jean-Charles Boisset to discuss his vision of wine through art, and how we might be closer than ever to the vineyards through the Metaverse. I consider Jean-Charles Boisset to be an artist who embraces so many facets of the wine industry, expressing it through jewelry, art, perfume, and entertainment. Jean-Charles Boisset was born into the world of wine in the village of Vougeot (Burgundy), France—the heart and birthplace of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. His lifelong passion for wine began early, having grown up on the family’s estate winery, Domaine de la Vougeraie, located within view of the centuries-old vineyards of Château du Clos de Vougeot. Jean-Charles’ passion for California and California wineries endowed with history, heritage and a pioneering spirit led him to Sonoma County in 2003, where he purchased DeLoach Vineyards, an early producer of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Zinfandel in the esteemed Russian River Valley. This set to motion further purchases of distinct wineries and destinations in the Napa Valley and Sonoma County, including Raymond Vineyards, Buena Vista Winery, Oakville Grocery, and in 2021 The Ink House Luxury Inn and Elizabeth Spencer Winery in Rutherford.

| 04 Dec 2019 | Radical Winemaking with Sasa Radikon | 00:26:50 | |
Today we speak to cult status producer Sasa Radikon. Based in Friuli Italy, Sasa’s family was the region’s pioneer of “orange” wines. Today, Sasa joins us to demystify natural wines, how it’s made and how to serve them. Orange wine is simply white wine made using a red wine method. This means that the white grape skins are used during the winemaking process to extract aromas, flavours and texture. The result is an orange coloured wine with full of flavours! Radikon is a pioneer of the natural wine movement in Italy. It’s also recognized as the pinnacle of orange wines, a radical winemaking style that his family has perfected after 25 years of winemaking history.

| 15 Apr 2021 | An Insiders’ Guide to Food & Wine Pairing with James Lloyd, Head Sommelier at Restaurant Gordon Ramsay | 00:28:17 | |
This is going to be a delicious episode! In today’s podcast we discuss wine and food pairings with James Lloyd, Head Sommelier at Restaurant Gordon Ramsay. Starting his career in wine in 1999, James has over 20 years experience from working with importers, wine producers and as a Sommelier for some of the world's greatest chefs. It all started in a hotel in South London moving to Gordon's flagship, Restaurant Gordon Ramsay (3* Michelin) in 2002 as a Commis Sommelier where he moved to Assistant Head Sommelier and remained until a move to New York as part of the opening team for Gordon and stayed for a year. After 5 years with the group, a move to Italy beckoned, in Piedmont, where he worked as an intern for Cantina Ceretto assisting in the production of their Barolo's, Barbaresco's and international blends, learning the ropes of wine making first hand. Once the harvest was complete he relocated to Lake Garda to take on a Sommelier position. Moving back to London in 2008, James initially became Head Sommelier for Marcus Wareing before moving to an importer, selling to Michelin Star Restaurants and top Hotels in London to gain more knowledge and to improve his skills as a wine buyer, to learn marketing and understand importing. Returning to Restaurants, James worked with Pierre Koffmann, Alain Ducasse, Playboy and consulted in the City of London before returning home to Restaurant Gordon Ramsay in 2016 as Head Sommelier where he is based, but his responsibilities are spread across the group and also being responsible for wine investment. Having just celebrated two milestones of maintaining 3 Michelin Stars for 20 years and 10 years of working along side Gordon he is looking forward to many more.
