In this episode, Christine and Daisy take us on a whirlwind tour of Spain’s most iconic (and delightfully over-the-top) wine traditions. From daring high pours to full-on wine fights, we’re diving into the porron, the Txakoli high pour, La Venencia and of course - sabering cava! Plus, a look at Spain’s wildest wine festival, La Batalla del Vino, and the refined Copa Jerez pairing competition. It’s a fresh look at how culture, craft, and celebration come together in the glass.

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship.
