Private Dining Is Essential to Success
Adam, Joanna, and Zach expand on the topic of massive wine lists and respond to some criticism, then chat about the fact that private dining spaces have become absolutely critical to success for restaurants and even cocktail bars in the current landscape. Is it just about landing clients with big budgets, or is there more to the phenomenon than that?

The Scourge of the Massive Wine List
We've all been there. You go to a nice restaurant, and the wine list weighs five pounds and would potentially take you hours to sort through. Adam, Joanna, and Zach discuss why this approach is anti-hospitality, why it continues to persist, and if there are strategies restaurants can employ that allow them to highlight their sizeable collections without dropping a brick on the table.

Can Drinks Brands Tap Into Halloween's Ascendence?
With spooky season in full force, Adam, Joanna, and Zach discuss the rising importance, both culturally and financially, of Halloween, and speculate about why it is that drinks brands have largely struggled to market to the occasion. Is it a case of an outdated notion that it's still a holiday for kids? The fact that there's not a clearly identified food or meal as a part of the celebration? Why don't we see holiday-themed packaging for every brand that can slap a pumpkin or a black cat on their can or bottle?

Drinks Marketing Needs to Target Where People Actually Consume
Adam, Joanna, and Zach respond to a recent Royal Bank of Canada report that indicates some of the changing ways that alcohol is consumed and discovered, and in particular the fact that at-home drinking occasions, in particular those of a social nature, remain appealing to consumers across a range of demographics, while on-premise drinking appears to be one of the first types cut when budgets get squeezed. Why is it that drinks brands are struggling to market to those drinking occasions?

Kosta Browne's Intercontinental Winemaking Adventure
On this special episode of the podcast, Zach speaks with Kosta Browne winemaker Julien Howsepian about the iconic California producer of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay: how they've grown the portfolio and looked to explore various parts of California through their winemaking, and how they turned their sights on Burgundy in the last half-decade or so. What are some of the opportunities and challenges that come with making wine in two different countries on two different continents?

Can Brands Still Go From Regional to National?
As the drinks landscape continues to evolve, Adam, Joanna, and Zach discuss whether brands that develop a strong following in a particular region or part of the country still have as clear a pathway to national appeal as they once did. Are the differences in how Americans drink based on geography and density insurmountable, or does it just require savvier marketing and an understanding of who your target demo is?
