The Washington Wine Show-’One bottle at a Time” fills a particular void in the growing online space for wine and social media. That void is for Washington wine. There are more than 25 wine podcasts out there, but there is no other podcast that specifically covers Washington wine. And, there is no other wine podcast that focuses on a single bottle of wine per show, giving my audience deep knowledge about wine, and whereby they can become instant experts. Over a period of six months to a year, the audience will have acquired enough knowledge about Washington wine to bravely go into any store, any restaurant, and order wine with virtually no intimidation. The audience for wine in social media is large and getting larger each day as the demand in the U.S. for wine is now out pacing beer and spirits. Yet, people are still lost when it comes to knowing which wines they should spend their money on. The show brings real social value.
My show would easily be categorized under the Food and Wine section on iTunes or any other podlist.
This first episode feature Liberty Bay Cellars 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon. I interview a professional sommelier, Larry Davidson, and a wine shop owner, Jeff Tweiten, who sells this wine. The music for the show was produced by me using Garage Band and Jam Pack, so it is royalty free.

This is a really great pilot! I pitched you tonight to a woman who may be starting some exporting to Taiwan (she’s associated with Novelty Hill) and she wants to meet you, so I’ll be doing an email introduction. And I decided to feature your post in WiredPen.
Now, we need to get you a website and a podcast feed!!
Suggestion … early on you say that the wine is a little pricey (or something like that) …you might want to include pricing and availability on the post itself … Also, consider using a WA map to highlight the winery — Jeff — Larry.
Jeff’s points about $/characteristics is good. You might also think about turning some of the interview info into blog posts “in between” shows. You can schedule these, btw. I haven’t demo’ed that to students, because you can “back date” as well as “pre-date”!!
Those “pour” sounds are good, too … consider how to incorporate them.

Thanks for the show – and good luck!
You should consider signing up to the OWC (www.openwineconsortium.org) and join fellow wine enthusiasts. There are many Washington Wine people there who can help with information and samples, and many other podcasters as well
If you get there, please be in touch
