Write a Review of Grape Radio Podcast
   
LOLJPB, February 17, 2006
Reviewer: LOLJPB
I'm a big fan of the Grape Radio podcast. As a budding wine connoisseur it's fun to listen to these guys cover a wide variety of wine-related topics. Who thought a 40 minute discussion about corks could be so interesting?! :)
The quality of the Grape Radio podcast is solid and the guys have just completed a new studio to do their podcast from so you can expect the quality to remain high. Kudos to the Grape Radio crew for showing the rest of us how a top-notch podcast is produced. I'll be a listener for a long time.

Virginians have grown grapes for wine for four centuries, beginning first with the Jamestown settlers. Unfortunately, early efforts to grow vinifera in Virginia were unsuccessful. In the late 1700’s and early 1800’s, Thomas Jefferson cultivated European grapes but his Monticello vineyards never produced wine. George Washington, at Mount Vernon, was also unable to make wine [...]
