Episode 139: Simon Jacob discusses "What Makes a Wine Iconic?"

The Kosher Terroir

About

Welcome to The Kosher Terroir - What Makes a Wine Iconic? 

I’m not asking about the bottle that impressed a critic or the one that cost so much your kids stared at you. I mean the wine you can still describe decades later, with your hands moving, because it welded itself to a moment in your life. Tonight I open my own cellar and my family’s stories to chase the answer, starting with a case that survived a basement flood and still poured like a powerhouse.


If you’ve got a bottle like that, I want to hear it. Subscribe, share this with someone who saves bottles on purpose, and leave a review so more listeners find the stories that keep time by the bottle.
