Fresh off a four year stint in living in Galicia and Rioja, Noah Chichester gives an insider's picture of the history and importance of the terroirs and wines of Galicia.

In this episode, we wade into the depths of Galicia's viticultural renaissance, where historical vineyards are being tenderly nursed back to life by the hands of dedicated revivalists like Telmo Rodríguez, Luis Anxo, Emilio Rojo, and more. 

Noah guides us through a land where the supernatural weaves seamlessly with the everyday, and deep traditions coexist in a harmonious cultural tapestry. It's an exploration of an area where the very energy of the land is as integral to the flavor of the wine as the grapes themselves, and each glass serves as a portal to the mystical charm of Galicia.

Noah wrote the first english language website and verified reference point on the wines of Galicia: winesofgalicia.com. Check it out if you want to learn more about the magic of Galicia.
