Wine Situation Final Five

The Wine Situation hosts everyone from winemakers to writers to find out what a person’s situation is…with wine. At the end of each episode, host Ellen Clifford wants to know the basics of her guests’ final thoughts on wine, drink and food. This month, Ellen talks with Kristin Olszewski of Nomadica wines! For the full episode click here This was edited for length! QUESTION ONE Ellen: Question number one: whatcha drinking? What are you into these days? Kristin: I’m drinking a lot of my own Proxies. I’m not gonna lie; I’m so into them. And Champagne . Andre Clouet . That’s our house Champagne. It’s rich, it’s textured. QUESTION TWO Ellen: Question number two is: do you have a favorite or unusual pairing? Kristin: Orange wine and sushi is my favorite thing. QUESTION THREE Ellen: Favorite snack? Kristin: Salt and Vinegar chips. Cape Cod. Or Utz. QUESTION FOUR Ellen: What do you drink when not drinking wine? You can give me one non-alcoholic, one alcoholic. Kristin: I love big, punch-you-in-the-face IPAs. Which is not how I like wine. For non-alcoholic—I’m such a big tea drinker, the gnarlier the better like burdock root with mushrooms. QUESTION FIVE Ellen: Question number five: what’s bringing you joy these days? Kristin: Surfing, definitely. I saw some dolphins yesterday. That always feels special when you see dolphins in the wild. And then you know there’s no sharks, because they’re scared of dolphins. *** You can find Nomadica at Whole Foods and Total Wines.

Very interesting wine. After it opens up, tastes a bit like tea leaves. Pretty complex — 5 months ago

Wine in a can. Who knew. ? Each can 1/3 of a bottle.
I was thinking this is going to be nay good.. But very drinkable. Great story. Read it.

It's great in a can as it's more portable for picnic or outdoor activities. Cheers!🍷
