Umbria is an unsung hero in the realm of Italian wine. The grape Sagrantino makes a robust long lived wine that speaks so telling of its terroir, I feel like I have travelled 3000 miles with each sip. I speak with my good freind Valentino Valentini, a third generation winemaker and former mayor of Montefalco. Enjoy.  

Wine Talks with Paul Kalemkiarian

Winemaker and Mayor. Fabulous conversation with Valentino Valentini

All you knew about wine is about to bust wide open….we are going to talk about what really happens in the wine business and I’'m taking no prisoners... I am your host Paul Kalemkiarian 2nd generation owner of the Original Wine of the Month Club; and I am somewhere north of 100,000 wines tasted. How is it that Groupon can sell 12 bottles for $60 and the wines be good? How do you start a winery anyway and lose money? What are 'natural wines' ? And is a screwcap really better than a cork? And sometimes I have to pick a wine at the store by the label and the price...and I get screwed. Subscribe now and prepare to be enlightened.
