Dedicated to Italian wine, the Italian Wine Podcast was founded by managing director of Vinitaly International Stevie Kim in 2017, and is hosted by wine writer Monty Waldin. The podcast offers weekly episodes covering the Italian wine industry, featuring interviews with winemakers and critics, and hones in on specific regions of Italy, such as Sardinia.
Waldin was the first writer to specialise in organic and biodynamic wines, interpreting the method as a “tool for terroir-driven wine, not a religion”. His mantra when approaching the Italian Wine Podcast is “to educate, inspire, and empower its audience with frequent updates and high-quality information.”
