Wayne Young's show La Taverna is more than just a podcast; it's an oral history of the wines of Friuli-Venezia Giulia. Through interviews with the winemakers of this beautiful region in northeast Italy, some in English, some in Italian, Wayne is bottling the story of the region he loves so much he moved there from the US after working one harvest in 1998.

This episode references strong language as well as strong drink!



Note from Rose Thomas: Wayne and I are doing a podcast swap! I interviewed Wayne on my show, he interviewed me on his! We know that our listeners appreciate Italian wines, so this is a chance to introduce you to a great new podcast. To hear about my travels in Friuli-Venezia Giulia and how my first trip there helped inspire the Modo di Bere project, go to
