About this episode

In this episode, Elizabeth Schneider provides six additional alternatives to expensive wines from various regions.

I said in episode 604 that if you wanted my other 6 suggestions, I would do a follow up show! You told me this is what you wanted, so this time I give you six MORE wine regions that make very expensive wines and then provide ideas of less expensive bottles that you could sub in when you don't want to splurge. From Châteauneuf to Brunello I give you some ideas that hopefully you hadn't considered! The wines I find alternatives for (you'll have to listen to hear the wines I recommend as "dupes"): Châteauneuf-du-Pape Grosses Gewachs Riesling (I tell you what it is 🤣) Hermitage (Northern Rhône Syrah AOC) Condrieu (Northern Rhône Viognier AOC) Brunello di Montalcino Margaux (Bordeaux) Enjoy it! And go to Grapes the Wine Company to shop for all of these! Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon.
