Lainie and Chip check out two "elevated" porch pounders: Light bodied, quaffable wines that are just a wee bit more elegant than what comes out of boxes and (most) jugs.  Mary Taylor Cabrerisse 2020 and Caruso & Minini Catarratto 2020 Both wine
We revisit Italy this week with two Italian whites that Chip picked out at Binny's: Pio Cesare Cortese di Gavi and Pepi Lignana Leopoldino Vermentino --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/no-chalice/support
Chip & Lainie decide that it is time to check out Muscadet (aka "Melon de Bourgogne" or just "Melon"). Lainie LOVES to compare so-called "New World" vs. "Old World" wines, so this week it was Bow & Arrow Johan Vineyard Melon 2020 and Jo Landron
Chip and Lainie revisit the wines of Matija Žerjav. This time we try Matic Ya Yeah Sauvignon Blanc (an orange/skin contact wine) and Šipon, aka Furmint. Our squeals of delight during the podcast should clue you in to what we thought of these Sl
Note: Yes, we continue to have some audio issues that we are working to resolve. Thank you for your patience! This week Lainie introduced Chip to two very tasty, reasonably priced white wines. They couldn't be more different from each other, b

We return for the second season of No Chalice Required! In this episode, we revisited producers of wines that we'd enjoyed in the past.  This week's wines were: Studio by Miraval  Weis Trocken 2020 by Beurer  --- Support this podcast: http
Chip and Lainie drink some delicious Pinot Gris from Alsace, France and Willamette Valley, Oregon. Both prove to be unexpected expressions of the grape: Kudos to Goodfellow Family Cellars and Domaine Kientzler!
It happens to all of us: We don't want to attend a holiday party empty-handed and the only wine vendors close by are drugstores and supermarkets. Or, maybe, we didn't realize that the restaurant we are at is a BYOB and need something to go with
Chip and Lainie check out two stellar examples of Chardonnay: One from Burgundy, the other from Napa Valley. Joseph Drouhin Meursault 2018 and Grgich Hills Estate 2018.
Chip and Lainie try out some fabulous Cabernet Sauvignon wines: Daou 2019 from Paso Robles and "Sister's Run" 2019 from Australia.
Chablis is both misunderstood and misappropriated: Fortunately, the real stuff is absolutely delicious. Chip and Lainie enjoy two Chablis wines: One very classic, one a bit more edgy and find them simply irresistible.
Lainie and Chip take a deep dive into one of Lainie's favorite grapes: Pigato. They sample three wines, all Pigatos, from Azienda Agricola Bruna. Same varietal, same producer, three different expressions at three different price points.
Chip and Lainie rejoice in a trifecta of Rieslings, domestic and international. Weingut Beurer - Riesling Trocken 2020, Ovum "Off the Grid" Riesling 2019, Joseph Cattin Riesling Alsace 2019.
Hot, sticky weather can be a dilemma for wine lovers, but Chip and Lainie have some ideas up their sleeves. They try an old standby, Vinho Verde by Broadbent, and Brand Red 2020, a funky glou-glou from Germany. Both are crisp, low alcohol, and
Chip and Lainie check out something new: Not exactly a wine, this Skin Contact Piquette from Old Westminster in Maryland is a fun, fizzy delight and perfect for hot days. They really dig the can, too!
Chip and Lainie love Field Recordings wines and were thrilled to be able to review Domo Arigato, a skin contact wine made from Pinot Gris, along with Morro View Gruner Veltliner. Not only were the wines delicious, our hosts also ended up with e
Chip and Lainie take a deep dive into Syrah, sampling Hand of God from Argentina and Mollydooker's "The Boxer" from Australia. As is often the case, both marvel at how the same grape can express itself so differently.
Chip and Lainie discuss Chenin Blanc with Chip sharing two of his favorite wines made from this grape: Domaine Le Peu de La Moriette Vouvray 2019 and Badenhorst Family Wines Chenin Blanc Secateurs 2019. They also discuss Anthony Bourdain and hi
