Torn in the USA - Wine Blast: Wine Survival Guide

Bartholomew Broadbent is a wine importer in Virginia, USA, who has seen ‘atrocious declines in business’ since coronavirus restrictions began. He lightens the tone by singing Monty Python songs (always look on the bright side of life…) and calls Trump, ‘an idiot president’. In California, Eric Baugher of Ridge Vineyards muses on challenges and opportunities before choosing an ideal quarantine wine that, ‘just kind of lifts your spirits’. Listener Liz calls in with a question about Lodi wines and we respond by cracking open some delicious bottles.
