The boys are joined by Eti Emokpae to spend more time in Galicia, specifically Ribeira Sacra and Ribeiro. Due to a hefty amount of CBDs, Duck actually can pay attention and not do depression and Eti is just an absolute delight. Kevin does cool things too, really, all in all, it's perfect and it's such a great way to leave Spain for a bit. What a wonderful season, catch the boys on Patreon this week to dissect it. ////LIST////Fedellos do Couto, Ribeira Sacra, 'Conas Brancas,' 2018//Bernardo Estevez, Ribeiro Branco, 'Chans e lus', 2018//Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/Disgorgeous)

The boys are joined by Veronica Stoler and Ariana Rolich of Campio Collective (join their wine club) to talk about Garnacha, the metaphysics of appellations, soil types, and Duck’s hot amphora takes. This of course, is done through the lens of Gredos, the hottest “appellation” in “Spain” that is going to be out of all of our price ranges pretty fucking soon.

We recorded this the day it snowed and Duck was already drunk. It was the third episode we did that week. It might be the best modern episode of disgorgeous. We discussed gators, island wines, and I think teen romance? I have no concrete memories, the conversation just flowed and brought joy to the world. Sara's wines FUCKING WHIP, and they just got NYC distribution, so please find them and drink them whenever.  Happy new years, I love you all. Duck's mic sucked for a little bit, sorry, but it gets fixed.///LIST///Dolores Cabrera Fernandez, Valle de La Orotava Rosado, 'La Araucaria' 2019//Envinate, 'Benje Tinto,' 2019//Killer Quail Wines, Dry Creek Valley, 'Carbonic Zinfandel,' 2019//// Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/Disgorgeous)

Fuck we're done so many episodes this week and I don't remember this really but it's good, I promise. Featuring our amazing friends Sarah Fernandez and Jirka Jireh, I'm pretty sure we talked about Bierzo and Galicia and how wine is hell but also, redeemable if we try hard enough. Yirka and Sarah are rock stars. Follow and read them and take classes with them and have them challenge you. We stan. Also, the wines were good.

The boys are joined with De Maison East's Ryan Looper to talk about Rioja, the history of Spain, and not nearly enough caliphate chat. We drank some killer dad wine and really loved it holy shit. I really don't remember what we talked about but it's a fantastic episode. On the bonus (patreon.com/disgorgeous) the boys got blue. Welcome to the season of passion .

The boys close out Novemberfest with Will Ryan of Blaze Brewing to discuss the other German Wine, beer. This is a great episode to discover a lot of truths, such as who really can smoke weed, what happened to JFK, what’s up with Duck’s emotional state and what do German accents sound like, really? This is also a really fun and silly exploration that we, frankly, needed. This might be the longest goodbye we’ve ever recorded, which is cute. Please buy Blaze Brewing Beers, and buy Will’s old clothes (@willryanbrews on instagram). Please also emotionally prepare yourself for issue two of our zine, which is like, coming.

The boys are joined by natural wine heart-throb Brent Mayeaux, the dork behind Stagiaire wines to disparage Charlemagne, drink Silvaner, and decannonize saints.

Duck is joined by the world's biggest apple nerds, William Mullen, Benford Leplay of Floral Terranes, and Jenny Eagleton to discuss fruit foraging, soul filtering, and slug husbandry. This is also your annual reminder that literally the most insane garagiste stuff in the wine world is actually happening in cider (which you should be drinking much much much more of), and the nerdiest stuff in cider is happening in perry, which you should drink a moderate amount of sometimes. Please follow William @pomme_queen on instagram and buy his prints so his slug can eat good, please drink Benford's work with Eric Longabardi @floralterranes, and please read everything @snack_wizard_5000 writes, including the Disgorgeous zine, issue 2 of which is coming soon, actually. ////LIST////Floral Terranes, 'Harbor Hill,' 2019//Black Duck Cidery, 'Perry,' 2019 (Seriously buy it, it fucking whips)Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/Disgorgeous)

John welcomes to the pod Joseph Bohling, author of the Sober Revolution: Appellation Wine and the Transformation of France, and James Sligh, author of the upcoming Children's Atlas of Wine, to talk about the very modern roots of the idea of the French AOC system. I think this is the first time we've allowed John to say "neoliberalism" on the pod, and boy does he go fucking apeshit. This is firmly within the ranks of "you might learn something" episode, but also, we all got wasted, so best of both worlds. Please attend Joseph's classes at Portland State University and buy his book on kindle and please drink with James via chambers street wines. Also, big shout out to our delivery homies at bespoke social club. Take a wine class with them too?  Big thanks to our UK wine goddess Elizabeth Brauders for sending us the Bellet.

Kevin, are you reading this? I miss you. Dms open man.Paternity Leave episode one, Duck is joined by Miguel and Rafa to discuss Rum. Unfortunately, it's an all bad boy episode, so there is a lot of time in the weeds discussing Tiki cocktails, colonialism and genocide, why museums suck, 9/11 and a weird dream duck had. It's a wild ride, pour yourself some rum.Please note - this is the first episode Duck has ever edited by himself. Please excuse anything being rough.

In a very special episode, the boys enlist the help of old pal Jesse Shapell to wrap up this Summer's "Postcards from Italy" season in a bright Sangiovese-colored bow. Kevin prepares to become a Dad, and John hides in a closet. Kevin would like to thank everyone for their support as he begins his paternity leave, and apologizes for leaving you alone with Duck for so long. He promises to rush back, and in the meantime, you are probably in good hands.

The boys are joined by sommelier Kenneth Crum to discuss Campania, which absolutely deserved like 3 episodes. File this episode under "you might learn something" because holy shit do these wines kick ass. Duck DOES accuse one of the producers of child sacrifice, but we're pretty sure that's just a joke and absolutely not legally actionable. Bottom line - listen to Kenneth when he tells you not to sleep on a wine region, and follow him at his adventures making wine in California and beyond. ////List////Casa di Baal, 'Fiano di Baal, 2016 //Monte di Grazia, 'Rosso IGT Campagnia,' 2012//Mastroberardino, 'Mastro Aglianico Campania IGT', 2017////Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/Disgorgeous)
