Ashley L via Stitcher: “Like a Fabulous Lunch Date with a Old Friend” Listening to Val & Steph is like a date with “that lunch friend”. You all know the one I mean. We all have that one great friend who we meet up with for lunch once in a while. The one whose personality is so refreshing & infectious that the food & drink tastes better because of their presence, & for this you are thankful. Every episode is a delight, as are Val & Steph. Cheers ladies!

The Cooking Studio of Fort Collins via iTunes: “Wine education at its best!” Sometimes learning about wines feels overwhelming – there are so many varieties and nuances! Steph and Val are not only experts, but the kind of experts that help the rest of us learn about and enjoy all wines. And they make [it] fun. This is a GREAT show! Thanks for doing it Steph and Val. (May 2017)

Genobigia via iTunes Italy: “Fun and Informative” This is my favorite blend of serious (winegeek) information couched in relaxing banter. This is a very clever balance and not easy to achieve: imperceptibly educational – and Val and Stephanie are two people I’d love to sit and drink a glass of wine with. Great info and great crack. (Dec 2016)

Mommies Time Out via iTunes: “Happiness in a cup!” As a lover of laughter, learning, and ladies who drink wine, this podcast fulfills all of my needs! These two offer wine history, current trends in the industry, and educated recommendations packaged in a funny and entertaining conversation. This is my favorite to listen to on long car rides, while getting ready in the morning, and of course, while winding down from a long day with a nice glass of wine in my hand. What a great escape! I would highly recommend this to the sommelier in training, the party planner, and the busy mom who wants nothing more than to hang with the gals and have a glass of wine, but doesn’t have the time or energy to leave the couch after a long day. And guys, if you want to impress your lady, hang out with these two for a while and you will be sure to get a second date! (Oct 2015)

A great concept and needed product for us wine drinkers, especially us active, on the go travelers! Will be following Gary and his product. I wish him the best! Learned of wine movies I was not aware of and look forward to checking them out. Movie nights with wine and friends is always a good time. Some new learning from the Dom Perignon factoid. A great contribution! (Sep 2015)

Terroir via iTunes: “Smart, funny, educational.” Been listening to these ladies since the beginning and they are as legit as they come.

Prost to my favorite CWE’s out there. (Jul 2015)
