"Chappy does a great job of focusing on the CA market and, I think, shows a youthful, millennial perspective on the wine industry that you will be unlikely to find in other podcasts. Chappy’s guests vary from winemaker to brand builder to nationwide distributor to everything else connected to the American drinks industry. The nearly hour long episodes are perfect for taking the dog for a long walk. He’s able to get some well known, highly respected guests on the show whom are able to provide great insights. If wine is your passion or business, this is another good podcast to add to your arsenal of knowledge. ”

Great insights into CA winemaking, viticulture, and branding

"I listen to this podcast regularly while working at a vineyard; Shake Ridge Ranch, Amador County. The name drop in the latest episode prompted me to write a review. Chappy invokes unique perspectives from mostly CA wine professionals. His and his guests perspectives and experiences provide a lot of value during the changing wine landscape of COVID 19 and even greater are helping shape my own perspective on approaching sustainability in the vineyard and cellar. Thanks Chappy and keep up the good work! ”

Great CA Wine Podcast!

"Cru is my go to "Jam" for the gym. For one thing, they are long enough to last my workouts but also, they are really well done and very interesting. The quality of people interviewed is fantastic. And Chappy's knowledge of wine/wine industry makes the interviews all that more interesting - he asks the right questions.
