Podcast #3 – Vinoble and Jerez de la Frontera
Podcast number three is a quick recap of Vinoble and my thoughts on this sweet wine festival. Also I had the chance to talk with a daughter and employee of [the Gonzalez Byass family->http://gonzalezbyass.com/ing/index3.htm], about the bodega visits and [tours of the bodega->http://www.bodegastiopepe.com/index.html] that they offer. Below are some photos of the Vinoble show and the tour I was able to go on at the winery of Gonzalez Byass.

[...] The hard part is picking my favorite moments from the past year, others would include, my trip to Vinoble, our trip to the Priorat, the Alentejo in Portugal and many more. In the end I hope that next year is as good to us and that we can continue to provide interesting and good information about Iberia and its wines for all of you. We’re having fun doing it that’s for sure. Special thanks to our parents for supporting us, and to all the readers out there that make this fun! Please continue to let us know what we can do to make this site better. Now I’m going to finish my beer, and take a short breather, before I start on the next year of Catavino. Too bad Gabriella is off leading a bike trip through the Pyrenees, it would have been better to celebrate together. Either way I know she wishes to thank everyone also and I look forward to a new year where we hear a lot more from her here at Catavino. Till soon, Ryan Opaz [...]
