In this episode, we’re joined by Vince Anter, host of V is for Vino, for his third appearance on the show. Vince shares insights from his newest episodes, taking listeners on a journey through Burgundy and the Loire Valley—two of France’s most iconic wine regions.
In Burgundy, Vince dives into the region’s understated charm, from the limestone vineyards of Chablis to the rolling hills of the Mâconnais. He highlights how family-run producers focus on their land, creating wines that express the purity of terroir. Vince also explains the distinctiveness of Côte d’Or, where world-class Pinot Noir and Chardonnay thrive, and why lesser-known areas like the Chalonnais offer exceptional value.
We then head west to the Loire Valley, a region brimming with diversity. Vince explores Muscadet’s coastal freshness, the versatility of Chenin Blanc in Anjou and Saumur, and the savory beauty of Cabernet Franc from Chinon and beyond. He emphasizes how the Loire combines terroir-driven wines with remarkable value, making it a must-know region for every wine lover.
Throughout the conversation, Vince shares stories from filming V is for Vino, his approach to educational content, and even a viral moment involving a misunderstood wine opener. Whether you’re planning a trip to France or just exploring its wines, this episode is packed with takeaways.
Listen now and learn:
- What makes Burgundy’s wines—and its culture—so unique.
