Nick delves into the unique characteristics of his vineyard and winery, offering insights into their operations and the philosophy behind their wines. We'll explore the significance of the winery's name and the thoughtful design of their labels, each telling a piece of the American story.

Then, the moment you've been waiting for: Kim, Mark, and Nick taste three exceptional Liberty Cellars wines: the crisp 2024 North Bridge Sauvignon Blanc, the robust 2022 Lexington and Concord Zinfandel, and the bold 2019 Sam Adams Declaration Red Blend.

To buy the wines there is a special offer on Liberty Cellars website:

To cap off this blend of history and vino, the trio debates the intriguing question: what truly is the most patriotic grape? This show is packed with rich history and even richer wines!

You can find Nick's wines and the special Wonderful World of Wine bundle at www.libertycellars.com.


Cheers, 

Kim and Mark
