Taste Toast Travel
Hey, friends! Welcome to the Taste Toast Travel Podcast!
We're your hosts and resident foodies, epicureans, and lovers of all things travel and exploration, John and Tara.
John is a certified Sommelier and a Certified Specialist of Wine, and has worked in the wine and hospitality industry for over 10 years.
Tara has worked in the wine industry for eight years both in hospitality and digital marketing.
When we first met, we bonded over our love of eating, drinking, and traveling the world. That passion has only grown over time, now we want to share this passion with you from an insider perspective.
On this podcast, you can expect a wide range of topics on all things food, travel, and beverage. This includes non-alcoholic drinks, too, because we don't discriminate here!
That means we'll dig into things like where to go, where to stay and what to eat or drink along the way. We'll be serving tea on hot topics and big news, dig into the cultural significance and impacts that food, drink, and travel have on our lives, and we'll even bring on guests to join us who are just as excited, passionate, and knowledgeable about tasting, toasting, and traveling as we are.
And, because we're not your ordinary foodie and travel-focused podcast, you can definitely expect some pop culture topics here, too.
We're only scratching the surface and have a lot more in store that we can't wait to share with you all.
Grab your favorite beverage, get comfortable, and enjoy the journey with us. Cheers!

007. What's ACTUALLY in Your Wine? We're Spilling!
What’s REALLY in your wine? As your two California wine industry insiders, we’re spilling the tea (or wine, in this case).
We kick off the conversation by digging into a recent controversy in the wine industry: winemaker Adam Lee's provocative ad comparing sugar levels in his Dial Tone Pinot Noir to the popular Meiomi Pinot Noir. This is a topic you will NOT want to miss—trust us, it’s juicy!
Our conversation expands to the broader implications for the wine industry around transparency of how wine is really made, the use of additives, and current trends around health consciousness.
We also chat about the differences in wine labeling practices between the U.S. and other countries and why this is so important, and the growing consumer demand for ethical and transparent wine production.
