This week’s pairing? A delicious Napa Cab with aftershocks. The 2014 Matthiasson was rattled by an earthquake while in barrel, and it shook us into a chat about natural disasters, including the recent flood that impacted our neighborhood. Earthquake? Flood? Fire? We weigh the options like it’s a twisted fantasy draft and admit which calamity we’d actually prefer to weather – with a glass in hand, of course.

When you start messing with the fate of wine, your DBP hosts’ most-beloved beverage, you’ve caught our attention. Climate change is no joke and it’s definitely causing a stir for wine-growing regions, especially those niche regions. Will Canada be able to continue making their signature icewine? Will we have to say goodbye to our favorite familiar varietals and welcome lesser-known ones? Will new wine regions pop up that we could have never imagined (Russian wine, anyone)? We don’t know for sure, but we had fun hypothesizing what opportunities and potential changes may be in store. We are definitely not scientists, but we can for damn sure speculate on wine. And we got our hands on a rare treat – a red wine from the only desert in the middle of a country that is 50% frozen: Canada!
