The Winos get a little Egotistical about their first webisode

The long-awaited debut of EgoTV's "The Young Winos" web video series is finally here! In the premiere episode, Jesse Porter and Chelsea Cannell head up to Valencia to go a little nuts at the Loose Goose Wine Festival.

Jesse gives Chelsea a few tasting tips as they sample some Chards, after which they chat with a festival-goer about the ugly menace that is age discrimination in the wine world.

It's possible that our intrepid hosts will get a little "loose" by the end, but hopefully they'll be ok... as long as they don't drink too much of the green ecto-cooler.

The Winos get a little Egotistical about their first webisode

In a photo finish, the long-awaited debut of EgoTV’s “The Young Winos” web video series was beaten by a nose this morning by the arrival of Beaujolais Nouveau. But unlike your bottle of under-ripe, chapitalized gimmick-wine, the Young Winos video series is something you’re (hopefully) gonna want to return to for a second helping. In [...]

Response to “a better Beaujolais”

It’s almost Thanksgiving again, and you know what that means: time to “go Bo!”  Scientists have proven that Beaujolais is the only bottle that will pair adequately with your T-day feast.  Drinking any other wine would be like drinking non-green beer on St. Patrick’s Day, and may cause your taste buds to go on strike. When we resolved [...]

11/19/08 - taming Torrontés

The list of “easy-to-find varietals that have never had their own dedicated Young Winos tasting” is dwindling faster than the number of viable US automakers. It’s a race to the finish. I guess you could say that Torrontés is basically our Chrysler. When several of the Winos drank it up at Skirball for the [...]

The Winos’ Tasting Series: Municipal Winemakers Bright Red

A couple months ago, we welcomed Santa Barbara winemaker Dave Potter to one of our hedonistic gatherings, where he shared with us several bottles from his nascent Municipal Winemakers label. One of the Winos’ favorite Municipal wines was a barrel sample of the not-yet-released “Bright Red” Rhone blend. Well, after many months of waiting, le Rouge [...]

The Winos’ Winemakers series: a handful of reds from Black Sheep Finds

Even the most net-savvy Wino can occasionally be nonplussed by the converging realms of online wine sales and objective wine blogging. Is this a review, or a sales pitch? Where does the commentary end and the commerce begin? Does the Jets fan yelling at me from inside my computer want me to learn [...]

Notes

Young Winos Media Page

We are pleased to announce that we have added a new Young Winos media section to the network.  It still looks pretty primitive but it gets the job done.  Click on the "pages" link at the top of the screen to access all of the Young Winos media appearances.  You can read the LA Times article and listen to us on the Tom Leykis Show.  Enjoy!

Events Calendar

Some of you may have noticed that our events calendar (in the left hand column) has had some growth recently.  Although all of these events aren't "Young Winos" events we encourage you to check them out and even participate!  Here in LA we love wine events and try to go to as many as possible.  If you do go to a wine event, PLEASE submit your photos and perhaps a review!  See you at the tasting table.
