The World's
Best Wine Podcast.
Because life’s too short for bad wine — and hour-long podcast episodes.

Wine education has a snobbery problem.
We fixed it.
Too many wine podcasts spend 90 minutes telling you what Burgundy smells like. We don’t do that.
The Best 5 Minute Podcast strips wine down to what actually matters — the story, the person behind the bottle, and the thing you’ll remember the next time you’re standing in front of a wine list.
Each week, host and veteran broadcaster Forrest Kelly sits down with the winemakers, sommeliers, and fascinating characters doing the most interesting work in wine — and delivers the best of it in 5 minutes flat.

A Heartwarming Journey Into Family and Food

I absolutely loved this episode! Erica D’Arcangelo’s story is such an inspiration—how a grandfather’s dream turned into a 65-year family tradition is a beautiful example of passion passed down through generations. The way she turned burnout into creativity and grew her family business using marketing and storytelling is so motivating. I especially loved the insights on perfect pizza dough and the art of pairing Lambrusco Frizzante with pizza. Plus, who knew that pizza delivery started for a queen? A must-listen for anyone who loves food, family, and stories that leave a mark.
Great for wine enthusiasts and entrepreneurs!

What a fun show! I completed bartending school several years ago but barely scratched the surface on the topic of wine. This show helps to fill in many of those gaps and then some. I especially enjoyed the episodes on how others have started their own wine bars. If you love wine, want to learn more about it, or are considering business ownership in the industry, then you’ve found a great resource!
