Whitley On Wine Radio Today

Nov 16, 2007 | Blog

Vintner Gary Heck will join me during the first half-hour of Whitley On Wine this afternoon to discuss Korbel down through the decades. The venerable Russian River Valley sparkling wine producer will be celebrating its 125th anniversay this year.

The show begins at 2 p.m. PT (5 p.m. ET) and can be heard at SignOn San Diego, the online presence of the San Diego Union-Tribune.

Then Wine Review Online columnist and reviewer Paul Lukacs will make an appearance at 2:30 to discuss Zinfandel. Paul, an award-winning author and also Wine Editor of Saveur Magazine, is in town to conduct a Zinfandel seminar at the San Diego Bay World of Wine and Food.

And in the final 15-minute segment, Paul Wagner, of Balzac Communications, will brief us on the results of Wednesday’s demonstration of the Eisch “breathable” glass at COPIA.

I’ve tried the Eisch “breathable” glass and am of the opinion the concept may revolutionize the stemware industry. More than 60 wineries and numerous wine journalists attended Wednesday’s demo.

If you miss today’s show, it will repeat over the weekend.
