really enjoyed them. 00:04:56.160 --> 00:05:05.759 Um, it's just tricky overseas, um, just in terms of making sure that they have the same wine that you do. 00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:08.959 Um, for me, the virtual thing, I love it. 00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:20.560 Um, I actually want to find a system um where I can do a virtual class and be able to have maps and have it just be a little bit more interesting than can I share screen? 00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:22.639 Um, but a little bit more interactive. 00:05:22.639 --> 00:05:26.480 And um, so for me, I'm entirely open to it. 00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:27.920 It's just challenging. 00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:34.000 Um, when you're in the wine business, shipping wine is the biggest challenge you'll ever have. 00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:37.120 Um for me, that's the big biggest challenge I ever have. 00:05:37.120 --> 00:05:40.879 It's never about finding the good wine, it's always about can I get it to them? 00:05:40.879 --> 00:05:42.720 So that's the tricky part. 00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:52.560 Um, if that's something that I can relieve, or I once did it with someone who was in um in Australia and I found a local wine shop in their area. 00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:56.160 It was in Canberra, and but I still couldn't find a wine. 00:05:56.160 --> 00:05:58.639 They didn't really understand what I was talking about. 00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:01.040 So it was just it was tricky. 00:06:01.040 --> 00:06:03.759 I think that's a tricky part, but it's something I would love to do. 00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:16.800 If I could find a partnership of someone who has, you know, a retail shop or a business overseas who can fulfill that end and I just come in with the education, oh, that'd be amazing. 00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:18.160 That'd be amazing. 00:06:18.480 --> 00:06:20.160 Yeah, no, that's beautiful. 00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:29.680 And I want to just, you know, I want to just throw this out to our listeners because perhaps some of them listening today don't know anything about wine and maybe have never even tried wine. 00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:31.839 So what would you say for those folks? 00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:35.040 I mean, how can they maybe introduce themselves to it? 00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:36.319 Where would they start? 00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:37.759 Are there basic ones? 00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:43.839 You know, you've mentioned a lot of the Italian wines and um your top three favorites as of today. 00:06:43.839 --> 00:06:49.839 But um what words would you share for someone that's just wanting to get started? 00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:51.839 I mean, or how would you educate them? 00:06:52.240 --> 00:07:01.439 Absolutely, you know, forget countries, forget grape varietals, um, forget even where they grow wine around you. 00:07:01.439 --> 00:07:11.040 Go and find a local retailer or restaurant or wine bar owner and get into a conversation. 00:07:11.040 --> 00:07:15.279 Um, that is to me the best way of getting started. 00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:27.199

Rather than going to a shop and asking some kid, what should I start out at, and you know, or finding a label that looks pretty in your local grocery store, see if you can go and find and have a conversation with someone. 00:07:27.199 --> 00:07:33.279 Um, because that is always the best way to start and get a recommendation and start that way slowly. 00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:39.279 Um, it's wine is about people and culture and life, and I know I've said that before. 00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:42.240 Um, and for me, that's the way in. 00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:50.079 Um, I always have in my classes a handful of people, one, two, three people who just really aren't that interested in wine. 00:07:50.079 --> 00:08:06.319 They come to my classes and because they want to hear about the history and the geography and where it is and why it is, and that opens people up to doing little deep dives into history and learning about language and culture and all that stuff. 00:08:06.319 --> 00:08:12.000 So if there's a favorite place in the world that you love to visit, you know, maybe start there. 00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:19.120 Um, but there's especially if you live in a city, there's going to be someone, and they're not going to be in Bevmo or Total Wine. 00:08:19.120 --> 00:08:21.680 I mean, they might be, but I don't think so. 00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:29.600 Um, find your little local shop, find the person in the shop that tastes the wines and makes the decisions which wines come in. 00:08:29.600 --> 00:08:31.680 Take them out for a glass of wine. 00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:33.279 Start a conversation. 00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:36.480 Um, to me, that is your quickest way in. 00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:44.240 And the world of wine is so vast and so complicated, but that doesn't mean you have to take it all in at once. 00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:50.879 Um start with that one person, start with that one grape varietal, start with that one region. 00:08:50.879 --> 00:08:55.759 Maybe you went to the Loire Valley once in your life and really loved it and have great memories. 00:08:55.759 --> 00:09:00.399 Spend three months drinking every Loire Valley wine you can find. 00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:05.600 Guarantee you, at the end of that three months, you're gonna have an opinion about the Loire Valley. 00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:16.000 And that opinion is gonna seed an interest into perhaps Chablis or into perhaps the southern part of France, or maybe to Italy, or maybe to Greece, who knows? 00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:22.320 Be curious and don't let a fancy Somalia talk you out of anything. 00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:24.799 I love this. 00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:26.080 I think this is so cool. 00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:26.879 Thank you, Paul. 00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:28.000 I really appreciate it. 00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:33.039 Uh, listeners, it is that time of the podcast where we're gonna talk about a nonprofit. 00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:44.639 If you haven't got an organization that you support and would like to help someone in need or just try and spend some volunteer hours, who knows?

share. 00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:39.519 But I have I have one um interesting question, Paul. 00:17:39.519 --> 00:17:50.480 My dad was was from Italy, born and raised um in Bisaccia, which is right outside of Avellino, outside of a few hours from yeah, so on the top of the mountaintop. 00:17:50.480 --> 00:17:51.920 And I have a question. 00:17:51.920 --> 00:18:01.440 In his hometown of Bizace, they have a bottle, which it almost looks like a um, I'm gonna describe it like a tree. 00:18:01.440 --> 00:18:06.559 It almost looks like a tree, um, like tree bark, but it's obviously a bottle. 00:18:06.559 --> 00:18:15.279 I don't know if there's wine in the bottle, but they always sell it in like a the small one and only gift shop back when I was there. 00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:29.279 I'm just wondering, in your opinion, if you've ever encountered a small um Italian, you know, shop that has, would that, in your opinion, maybe be a local, you know, a local wine shop carrying a local wine? 00:18:29.279 --> 00:18:31.519 Because it's it's such a remote part of Italy. 00:18:31.519 --> 00:18:32.480 That's why I'm asking. 00:18:32.720 --> 00:18:33.039 It is. 00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:33.759 Um I'm sorry. 00:18:33.759 --> 00:18:35.279 That so the question is. 00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:42.480 So this bottle, this bottle that my dad had, it looked like a tree bark and it was called it had the like it was bizarre. 00:18:42.480 --> 00:18:45.680 It had a picture of the of the town on this bottle. 00:18:46.240 --> 00:18:50.880 But what was it a glass bottle with like things on it to make it look like wood? 00:18:51.119 --> 00:18:59.200 It was actually almost I don't know what it was made out of, but it did not look like a wine bottle, but it was it held something like a liqueur. 00:18:59.200 --> 00:19:03.839 I'm just questioning if it would have been wine because it was Italy in a small town. 00:19:03.839 --> 00:19:06.240 Do you have any idea what it I don't? 00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:07.599 So two two things come to mind. 00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:17.680 First and foremost, where your dad comes from is very famous, it's next to a very, very famous wine region um called Erpinia, I-R-P-I-N-I-A. 00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:28.160 And it's um it's a historic area in Campania, home to three very important wines Taurasi, Greco de Tufo, and Fiano de Avellino. 00:19:28.160 --> 00:19:29.279 Avellino. 00:19:29.279 --> 00:19:31.599 Um, so very famous area. 00:19:31.599 --> 00:19:34.559 We're talking famous back to the Roman Empire. 00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:38.799 Romans talked about the grapes being grown in this area. 00:19:38.799 --> 00:19:46.880 There was a wine called uh Apinium, uh Vitis Appiana from the grape Fiano, um, and that's the grape from the village of Avellino. 00:19:46.880 --> 00:19:53.039 So even the little wine shops in that area, I think, are gonna carry some pretty prestigious wines. 00:19:53.039 --> 00:19:56.480 This is not an obscure region, you know, in Sicily or something. 00:19:56.480 --> 00:19:59.359 This is like in important fundamental regions. 00:19:59.359 --> 00:20:07.119 When I talk about and I teach about southern Italian wine, the first area I talk about is Erpigna in Campania. 00:20:07.119 --> 00:20:09.359 So there's a good chance it may be something. 00:20:09.359 --> 00:20:13.759 The second thing I want to say is it sounds like it may not be wine. 00:20:13.759 --> 00:20:29.599 Um, typically, when I see, you know, bottles of some kind of liquid, and the bottle is not a regular wine bottle, and it's got an interesting top, and it could be an amaro, could be a liqueur, could be some kind of cordial. 00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:31.599 And the Italians are famous for that. 00:20:31.599 --> 00:20:43.119 They're famous for these interesting little like things that they make um out of hazelnuts, and uh every town, every uh region has its own amaro and things like that. 00:20:43.119 --> 00:20:46.960 So it may be something unique along those lines. 00:20:46.960 --> 00:20:51.279 Um you remember did you ever see it poured in a glass? 00:20:51.599 --> 00:20:56.240 No, no one ever opened it, everybody was saving it for the rainy day, or you know, saving it for the rain. 00:20:56.400 --> 00:20:58.400 I mean, now you have me thoroughly interested. 00:20:58.480 --> 00:21:01.200 Yeah, is there any way to get a picture of that to me? 00:21:01.200 --> 00:21:07.200 Um, I'll see if if we have a bottle in the family, otherwise, I'll try to research it and I'll I'll ship it to you. 00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:08.559 Don't go, oh my god. 00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:09.839 I mean, that would be that would be amazing. 00:21:09.839 --> 00:21:12.400 Just take see if you can just get the name of it. 00:21:12.400 --> 00:21:18.559 And I can uh and I'll I'll do a little research and email you back and be like, hey, this is what that is. 00:21:18.559 --> 00:21:23.359 Um if you want to send it to me, I'll never say no to that, but let's figure out what it is first. 00:21:23.359 --> 00:21:25.200 Um, but I'm totally intrigued. 00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:28.960 Italy is full of really cool little little secrets like that. 00:21:28.960 --> 00:21:30.799 Um, so I think that sounds so cool. 00:21:30.799 --> 00:21:31.279 Wow. 00:21:31.599 --> 00:21:32.880 Thank you, thank you so much. 00:21:32.880 --> 00:21:33.599 Thank you. 00:21:33.599 --> 00:21:39.440 So for the folks interested in connecting with me, um, and I'd love to have a future conversation, Paul. 00:21:39.440 --> 00:21:43.519 So I'm in the death care space, uh, funeral director embalmer. 00:21:43.519 --> 00:21:50.880 I actually am the director of the program at Miami Dade College for folks wanting to become funeral directors and embalmers. 00:21:50.880 --> 00:22:00.559 Um so I always see some collaboration there with the the macabre side of things, maybe having a glass of wine, discussing the Shakespearean uh death and dying concepts. 00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:02.559 I there's some similarities there. 00:22:02.559 --> 00:22:07.839 Um I also serve as an expert witness for legal cases against funeral home and cemetery. 00:22:07.839 --> 00:22:11.599 Um so both I work for the plaintiff and the defense. 00:22:11.599 --> 00:22:18.799 Um so if a funeral home has a case that a family has brought against them, be happy to serve as an expert witness. 00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:20.960 So looking to connect with attorneys. 00:22:20.960 --> 00:22:25.759 And the last thing I do is the space of senior space, which is placement. 00:22:25.759 --> 00:22:32.880 So here in Florida, I cover the east and west coast of Florida, matching people with communities who can no longer live alone. 00:22:32.880 --> 00:22:36.319 So we do not place for nursing home or skilled nursing. 00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:40.160 This is strictly assisted living and assisted living memory care. 00:22:40.160 --> 00:22:45.039 And I'll turn it back over to you, Shereen, and uh you'll close us out. 00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:46.319 Well, thank you very much. 00:22:46.319 --> 00:22:49.359 So, first of all, I just want to say thank you very much for listening, everybody. 00:22:49.359 --> 00:22:58.400 If you want to follow my funny stories, you can follow me, Shireen Botha, on most um platforms, social media platforms. 00:22:58.400 --> 00:23:03.119 You can find uh Shireen's bookkeeping services mostly on LinkedIn. 00:23:03.119 --> 00:23:06.960 Um, but I'm I am on Instagram and Facebook. 00:23:06.960 --> 00:23:10.480 Um, and then lastly, Friends from Wild Places. 00:23:10.480 --> 00:23:12.000 Oh my gosh, my camera. 00:23:12.000 --> 00:23:15.519 Okay, well, thank goodness you're just listening to us, hopefully. 00:23:15.519 --> 00:23:19.440 So friends from wildplaces.buzzbrout.com is the website. 00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:22.160 Please go ahead and leave some remarks. 00:23:22.160 --> 00:23:23.680 Tell us what you think. 00:23:23.680 --> 00:23:26.240 Um, we'd love to hear from you. 00:23:26.240 --> 00:23:29.279 And remember, you got this and stay wild. 00:23:29.279 --> 00:23:30.240 Bye guys. 00:23:31.039 --> 00:23:32.240 Thank you, everyone. 00:23:39.599 --> 00:23:43.839 You've been listening to Friends from Wild Places with Shireen Botha. 00:23:43.839 --> 00:23:50.559 Be sure to subscribe to the podcast from the links to catch every episode and unleash your passion.
