To ring in the new year, join Carl and listener favorite guest Don Spiro for an encore presentation of the history of champagne. Don, vintage beverage specialist and former professional bartender, looks at just how champagne first came to be, how its style evolved over time and just what contemporary champagne makers are offering today.
So pop a cork and enjoy the fizz as Don and Carl go back in time and trace the bubbling, effervescent history of champagne. Make sure to listen to Don's previous appearances on the Gilded Gentleman podcast -- shows on burlesque, absinthe and the golden age of Gilded Age cocktails!
This show was edited by Kieran Gannon and produced by Bowery Boys Media.
