Greetings friends of CrushCast! We are bringing you a special bonus episode in lieu of our latest episode. Due to some technical hiccups, we have to delay our release by one week, so we decided to give you a sneak peek into our Patreon. In this episode, We bring you some of the wines from the past that are still singing now. Julie did some digging and found new documentaries about wine that are not just about Sommeliers. Allie talks about the virtues of wine gadgets, which are worth the money, and which gimmicks are nothing but bunk. Join us with a glass of your tried and true favorite. Cheers!

Hello All! We have embarked on an entirely new Sipisode series all about historical wineries. Often names are thrown around in the wine world to indicate quality and refinement. But we asked ourselves why their names carry such heavy meaning. Our goal in this series is to demystify the lore and explain how their legends were made. Our first stop is at Domaine de la Romanée-Conti often known as DRC and the most acclaimed winery in the Burgundy region in France. Listen to discover why these wineries are the best known in the world and how they achieved their perceived value. Grab a glass of your favorite wine and join us! Cheers!

We have an extra special interview episode for you with one of our favorite humans Sunny Doench Stricker of Future Perfect. She is as bright, sparkly, and bursting with color as her wine labels. She is a lesson in positivity and how hard work and determination can bring you success. To quote Sunny, "Tiny bubbles, tiny troubles."

Her philosophy is “serious wine made with a lot of joy.” Her winery promotes sustainability, minimal intervention, and Santa Barbara County.

From the Diamond Sky Ranch, Sunny joins us for this interview where we talk about following your dreams, picking the right fruit to fit your wine style, and how to build a winery with the local community of winemakers and farmers.

By the end of the episode, you will be asking yourself WWSD? Grab a glass of your favorite Rosé or Bubbles and join us! Cheers!

We at CrushCast are excited to bring you a bonus episode all about the Ojai Wine Festival. We take this opportunity to learn more about the Ventura County wine country, its untapped potential, and a sneak peek into the wines being made.

In this episode, we are speaking with two local Ojai wineries; Side Street Winery and Majestic Oak, both of which give us a better look into the local Ojai wine community. We finish the pod by speaking with a local Sommelier Emily Johnston-Collins who is heading up the festival's wine competition.
