Episode 201 – Open That Bottle of Old World vs New World Nebbiolo

In todays episode, Shelley and Phil kick off their NEXT 100 episodes! Because Global Nebbiolo Day is March 5th and Open That Bottle Night is tomorrow, we’ve decided to check off a number of boxes by opening a New World Nebbiolo (from Saviah Cellars) and two Old World Nebbiolo’s (a Barbaresco and a Barolo). So much to talk about in this one! #HappyFriday! #ItsWineTime! #Cheersing #KingOfWines #WineOfKings #QueenOfWines #BaroloWars
