Haut Bailly is an iconic winery in Bordeaux run by Veronique Sanders. The delicious wines from this winery may have made Michael's wallet and heart grow three sizes the day he visited the winery(or shrunk). Regardless - this is an interesting conversation that goes down a few rabbit holes about value - and along the way even talks about screw caps in Bordeaux.

We're back in Tuscany, in an area called Valdarno di Sopra; don't worry, we'll cover what that is and its importance. This week we are speaking to Salvatore Ferragamo - does that last name sound familiar? His family owns Il Borro a winery that currently makes Andre's favorite Sangiovese "that doesn't taste like any sangiovese I've ever had before." We explain that too.

Lots to learn in this one, and we bring it all to you from the hills of Valdarno and the magic of imagination. If you close your eyes (if you can) this one will make you feel like you're actually in the hills, the wind blowing, you're looking over an ancient Borgo (small village) - and if you listen closely, you'll even know the time of day we recorded the interview.

A big thank you to Stem Wine Group - https://www.stemwinegroup.com/ for getting us these great wines from this week's winery, Il Borro - https://www.ilborrowines.it/

As long-time listeners know, Michael heads off to Tuscany every year and calls into André to report what's new in Italy's most well-known region. This year is different. In this, our first of half a dozen Tuscan interviews you'll hear this year - Michael brought Tuscany back for André and our listeners. Whether it's the unmistakable Italian accent, the wind rolling through the hills, or birds chirping and church bells ringing in the distance, Tuscany comes to life for you.

Today, we talked to Alberto Moretti Cuseri, part of the family that owns Tenuta Sette Ponti. We talk about various parts of Italian wine making and we taste two of their iconic wines.

Thank you to Noble Estates https://www.nobleestates.com/ for helping to get these wines from the winery and into the province.
