And now for something completely different. Wine of the Sea ages wine in a completely unique fashion. Wines are submerged 100 feet under the Adriatic Sea for one year, to mature in a much quicker fashion than traditional methods. Zarko Bogojevic is Owner and CEO of BZ Consortium along with his business partner Nick Wood. BZ is a Wine and Spirits distributor located in Waupaca, Wisconsin and Wine of the Sea is frankly, at the heart of the company. Enough from me. Listen to Zarko and Nick along with Max Hansen Head of Business Development, explain how wine aged in the Sea, came to be.

You can also here Nick on our Vino Lingo segment defining the phrase “A hobby gardener’s take on Terroir” as well as Max defining “Complexity”.

Welcome to this special podcast! As some of you might know, I released a book aptly titled, “Vino Lingo”, wine words defined by the winemakers themselves. The book contained original photos of each of these winemakers in the spirit of the Vino Lingo words. The following audio stands as my ‘audio book’ of the project featuring the voices of each of the winemakers. This is part two. Its fun. Maybe silly. But definitely educational. Please enjoy. And watch for my next book, Vino Lingo Part Two.
