We could have spoken for hours. In fact, after I turned off the recording system, he stayed for another 20 minutes wrapping up the previous hour.

With a Ph.D. in history, Cristian is able to add a level of depth to the conversation about wine and its history. Wine is everywhere throughout history and as a matter of academia, represents so much about history, that it is hard to separate one from the other.

When you consider the wine to be a sense of time and place, a background in history would set you apart in the discussion about wine....and you will see...this idea is entirely real.

I know that we will sit again one day and continue where we left off, but as a listener to the podcast, you will find Cristians insight into the origins and story of wine fresh and inspiring.
