The third episode of Wine With Wanda on Instagram Live featured award-winning journalists and authors Mike DeSimone and Jeff Jenssen, the World Wine Guys. This dynamic duo’s best selling books include one of my go-to resources Red Wine: The Comprehensive Guide to the 50 Essential Varieties & Styles (co-author, Kevin Zraly). Our lively chat explored how their wine writing career started by faxing a pitch to Wine Spectator, their love of Spain, suggestions on which wine regions to visit, and the charms of comfort food paired with fine wine!
Don't worry if you missed the live show, you can view the conversation on YouTube. During our chat, we all sipped on wines from Spain. Mike and Jeff were savoring a special wine from their cellar, Bodegas Ontañon Gran Reserva Rioja 2005. My sip was the charming and refreshing Pazos de Lusco 2018 Albariño, Rias Baixas ($21).
