S2E1 From Reims with love: Trump's tariff storm

Saison 2 · Épisode 1

mercredi 3 décembre 2025 • Durée 25:16

March 13, 2025. Trump threatens 200% tariffs on European wine. Then 20%. Then a 90-day pause. Importers freeze shipments, small producers panic, and the industry holds its breath. Julie, in Reims when the news breaks, calls one of her favourite Champagne producers. Her response? "We just wait."

But waiting isn't easy when inventory is running out and partners are depending on you.

In this episode, we speak with Clémence Lelarge-Pugeot about the impact of tariffs on small Champagne houses, America’s three-tier wine import system, and the rise of organic and biodynamic practices. We also taste Les Meuniers de Clémence - a 100% Meunier Champagne - whose notes of oyster shell, white flowers, liquorice, and a surprising hint of cognac inspire a (very French) family moment.

Tariff threats loom, but so does a new era of Champagne growers. Through biodynamic farming and winemaking experiments, they are transforming the region and creating wines that rival the grandes maisons at a competitive price point.

Champagne tasted: Les Meuniers de Clémence by Lelarge-Pugeot (https://champagnelelarge-pugeot.com). Also check out their Tradition Cuvée, best value for money Champagne!

For French readers, the episode also nods to Dans les forêts de Sibérie by Sylvain Tesson.

Hosted, produced, and edited by Julie Béguin.

Intro music:“Something Greater” by Caleb Fincher.

Newsbed music:“Tactical Approach” by Soundroll.

Outro theme music:“Jazz Promenade 1930s” composed by Patrick Coen.

S1E5 Bandol, Cézanne, guarrigue and…pork pies

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

vendredi 30 mai 2025 • Durée 44:09

Want to charm a dinner party with words like 'garrigue'? Curious why Cézanne couldn’t stay away from Provence, or why Mourvèdre might be your new favourite grape? This sun-soaked bonus episode was recorded mid-2024 Olympics, with Bandol wines in hand and Provençal sunshine on our minds.

We explore:

Rosés + reds from Bandol;
The Mourvèdre grape and its garrigue magic scents;
Provence’s spell on artists like Cézanne & Van Gogh;
A simple tian recipe (aka ratatouille’s stylish cousin);
The mystery of Melton Mowbray pork pies (with a very sincere apology from Julie to all UK citizens);
And dating red flags, like saying 'réfrigérateur' with a straight face.

From terraced vineyards and seaside aromas to artistic havens like Saint-Paul de Vence (plus an epic wine quiz and le 'bêtisier' at the end!), this episode is a warm return and a playful wrap to Season 1.

Wines featured from Domaine Bunan :

Château La Rouvière rouge 2013

A rich, structured Bordeaux blend with Mourvèdre, known for aging beautifully.

Moulin des Costes Bandol rosé 2019

Lovely salmon colour, dry, and complex with herbal notes thanks to Mourvèdre.

Recommended producers from Bandol:

Domaine Tempier
Domaine de la Bégude
Domaine de l'Olivette
Domaine de la Bastide Blanche

S1E4 Must-Busting: Is Pinot Grigio Really Sh...te, or Just Misunderstood?

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

vendredi 30 août 2024 • Durée 20:40

Welcome to the debut episode of Must-Busting, our brand-new mini-series within Grapes to Glory where we tackle common wine myths head-on!

Today, we’re here to set the record straight on Pinot Grigio, the wine often seen as the go-to for a “Large Pinot Grigio” (LPG) after work. Is it really just a basic, boring white wine? Spoiler alert: absolutely not! From the crisp and light “Lager of wines” you’ll find in pubs—a true vino della casa—to the richer, more complex bottles (BPG anyone?) that deserve a spot on your dinner table, this grape has a lot more to offer than meets the eye. Whether you’re an LPG loyalist or ready to explore the more intricate, layered side of Pinot Gris, join us for a fun and myth-busting journey through the many faces of this misunderstood grape.

S1E3 The King of the North: Grignan-Les-Adhémar

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

mercredi 17 juillet 2024 • Durée 44:00

July 8th, 2008: 5,000 gallons of uranium solution were accidentally released at the Tricastin power plant, creating a ripple effect that would change the fate of a local wine appellation forever. In this episode of Grapes to Glory, we delve into the nuclear incident at Tricastin and its profound impact on the nearby wine region.

Join Catherine and Julie as they recount the events that led to the renaming of the Coteaux du Tricastin appellation to Grignan-les-Adhémar. Julie, taking us on a trip to the picturesque Rhône Valley, reveals why this lesser-known wine region captured her heart and deserves all your attention.

Discover how the winemakers of this small appellation transformed adversity into opportunity by improving quality and rebranding their wines. Enjoy Julie's heartfelt tribute to her beloved late grandmother with a rendition of Francoise Hardy's "Tous les garçons et les filles," and Catherine's knack at pub quizzes, along with their quirky anecdotes, from eggs to Game of Thrones and everything in between!

Explore with them the unique terroir of Grignan-les-Adhémar, the grape varieties that flourish here, and the winemaking practices that ensure quality and tradition in every bottle. This episode offers a captivating narrative of resilience, transformation, and the enduring spirit of a wine region facing adversity. And who doesn't love RESILIENCE these days...?

Silly videos and wine pictures will be shared on Instagram @GrapesToGlory.

S1E2 Wine Appellations: Why they matter and the crisis brewing

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

mercredi 26 juin 2024 • Durée 32:00

After exploring grape varieties in Episode 1, we now peel back another layer of the wine world: Appellations. These geographical designations, rich in history and tradition, tell a story far beyond mere origin.

What exactly is an appellation, and why were they established in the first place? Follow us as we go back to the historical roots and evolving significance of appellations.

Learn how these regulations influence your wine's character and quality, and why understanding appellations is just as crucial as knowing the grape varieties themselves. Along the way, enjoy Julie's foray into Epigenetics...

Explore the hidden challenges that appellations face today, including the pressures of standardisation, climate change, and shifting consumer preferences, as we examines the delicate balance between tradition and innovation in the wine industry, revealing both the strengths and potential pitfalls of the appellation system.

Catered for wine enthusiasts and curious minds alike, this investigation sheds light on the complexities and controversies behind the labels on our favourite bottles!
