Episode 204

When you think of rosé, you probably think of sunny skies, a sandy beach, or maybe a terrasse with ‘the girls’. But what about drinking rosé in the middle of winter paired with an amazing Christmas dinner you just prepared for your family? Well, the owner of La Fete du Rosé, Donae Burston thought just that. In this episode, Donae reinvents the summer wine and tells us how he developed a new Rosé lifestyle.

Wine School Dropout Season 2 is on hold

After an amazing Season 1 full of interesting topics and questions answered, we were excited to bring you a Season 2 after a short break. But then, the entire world and our lives took an entirely different direction that we never saw coming.

Our days are now spent locked in our apartments, distancing ourselves from friends and loved ones and trying to deal with this new normal. As it stands, we cannot make it to the studio to continue production and recording our new season, nor can we release Season 1 in French as we had previously planned. We’ve put everything on hold now as we think about and deal with the pandemic that is currently affecting all of our lives. During this time, please feel free to binge listen to all 8 epidsodes of Season 1, share the podcast with your friends, and leave a review. You’re home drinking wine, why not learn a little more about it as well?

To those on the front lines of this, We at Wine School Dropout appreciate you and applaud all of your efforts. To those that have experienced this first hand, we are sorry and we sympathize with you during this time.

It is our hope at WSD that you stay safe and healthy and we look forward to toasting a glass outside again when this is behind us.
