Ep146: Guest Alert! Lisa Lee from Myrtle Beach’s The Tasting Room on 9th

We are thrilled to chat with our latest guest, Lisa Lee, a wine entrepreneur in Myrtle Beach who took a vision of a high-end wine bar with unparalleled hospitality and made it a reality with The Tasting Room on 9th. Her story is inspiring, her personality energetic, and her desire to bring the best to the Arts & Innovation District of Myrtle Beach is heartwarming. Tune in to hear her nontraditional, yet exciting journey of opening a wine bar in a coastal community where most sipping is usually done with cocktails on the beach. Lisa chose a deliciously fresh Provençal rosé from Château Minuty to sip on – grab your own and listen in!

Ep112: Mad Hatter

Oh, the many hats we wear! Have you taken a moment lately to count all the hats you wear in a given day? From spouse to parent to professional/employee, it can be overwhelming to think of the various roles we play in our daily lives. Most people actually never “check out” for the day, but simply change hats. This episode we talk about the balancing act we play with the several hats we wear and how to avoid truly becoming the “Mad Hatter.” So take a break and put on your wine-drinking hat!

Ep102: Reunited and it Feels SO Good

It just became too much, we HAD to see each other! We got together in Sarah’s backyard for some distanced drinking while sharing some of our plans for upcoming episodes. We’ve got some fun in store and wanted to give you a bit of a preview while we pre-celebrated National Wine Day and sipped the newest vintage of the delicious Utopia Pinot Noir Rose.

Ep94: Sweet Dreams are Made of This

We thought we’d bring it back to the basics and talk about one of the most important things we can do for our health…Sleep!! On the heels of Sleep Awareness Week, we discuss why catching those Zzzs is so important, the habits and practices that can improve our sleep quality, and offer tips & tricks to getting a good night’s sleep. We find out our sleep quirks that make us all unique…and if that glass of warm milk actually works. Grab a glass, your favorite blanket (weighted – maybe?), and snuggle into this episode!

Ep66: So Long, Summer!

As the warm weather winds down, we share our top summer activities (just add wine!) and what makes it most special for us. We not only cover the best wines to drink in the summer, we also make sure that you’ll leave this episode with fun summer facts like did you know you can tell temperature through crickets?!

Ep61: It’s a Cheese and Wine-abration!

Happy National Wine & Cheese Day! We couldn’t let this day pass without lending a DBP hand in an attempt to answer the wine-drinker’s million dollar question – what wine should I pair with my food (or vice versa)?! Creating the ideal pairing isn’t quite rocket science, but it’s not always easy either. In this episode we share some tips and tricks for putting together a great pairing. There are certainly some guiding principles to make your mouth do a little happy dance as you sip and nibble, but remember: taste is subjective. We pop open a bottle of Savor Collective to accompany our savory discussion that certainly makes us salivate. Cheers!

Ep54: Napa Know How!

Now it’s time for a recap of our time in Napa Valley. From tasting rooms to vineyards, we had a variety of experiences through a range of widely accessible wines to limited productions! As we recount the rest of our first DBP trip to the motherland, we share everything from the Summer Release Event at Round Pond to a one-on-one tasting at the world-class Joseph Phelps with a spectacular view of their vineyards. Do as the “napkins” (aka, people from Napa) do, pour a glass and get transported to the DBP motherland!

Ep22: Secret Identities

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be a top-secret agent? Well, the DBP girls definitely have! Listen in as we talk about different levels of covert operations, various espionage tactics, and speculate what life would be like as a NOC (aka “Non-official Cover” in the CIA world). We also tell the story behind a former NOC whose identity was leaked to the public (not so secret anymore!), its impact, and the most recent developments of the 15-year-old scandal. What better to drink with this topic than the refreshing Secret Identity Rosé! Crack one open and sip along!
