A Guy, a Girl, and a Bottle, hosted by Joe Carpenter and Lori Leahy, is a weekly show for people interested in hearing an innovative wine podcast from in and around Silicon Valley. We visit and review both the wineries as well as the wines in Northern Californiaâs Bay Area and beyond. The goal of our show is to explore the wine culture and report on it from an amateurâs perspective. We feel that there are many wineries that are often overlooked as travel destinations, and more people would visit them, if they only had more information to go on. Everyoneseeks to have some amount of exclusivity in their lives, or in their wine cellars. Often wines are recommended by close friends and family. Our goal is to help the average person understand wines, and perhaps find that exclusive wine or winery that no one had heard of. Podcasting on location the allows us to take the listener along on our journey as we visit wineries and taste their wares.

Hey there guys and girls, here we go again! Wine Blogging Wednesday! This month's contest is alternative wine packaging. For most people that means boxed wine. In fact, the Boxed-Wine-Guy is hosting this months' event (Thanks Roger!) but Pam & I are not your average wine drinkers. Nope, not us. We have to be different. We went out and found some wine in a can. With a straw. The horror! Although it is wine, technically speaking it is sparkling wine in a can, and comes to us from Francis Ford Coppola and the wine is his daughter's namesake, Sofia. The Sofia Mini comes in a package of four cans, neatly packaged in a hexagonal box, and retails for about $12.99. Following the hip trendy set, you can also find the cans for purchase at your local disco. We wonder out loud if Karen and Karla from the Rumor Girls are listening as this seems like a product right up their alley. Listen now as we give you are impressions of this marketers dream product. Have you tried Sofia? Let us know! Give us your thoughts on the wine-in-a-can concept.
