Sommelier Businesswoman Kristin Olszewski brings Michelin quality to Canned Wines w Nomadica Wines

Season 2, Ep. 15

Nomadica Wines offers sparkling, rose, white, red and orange options -- both canned and bag in a box.


Nomadica Wines are sourced from vineyards with responsible farming practices and winemakers who engage in low intervention wine making.


Wine-lovers can be 100% confident you’re drinking serious sommelier-quality wine.


Something really cool about our wines is everything's practicing organic. No pesticides, no synthetic fertilizers, all of our wines are fermented dry. Naturally zero grams of sugar per serving. They have nice fruit notes, but none of the wines are sweet.


Crushable bright flavor. 


Across the gamut, our entire portfolio has a brightness and a freshness to it. All of our wines are like slightly aromatic because I love an aromatic variety, but part of the thought that we put behind the brand is that I wanted to take that sommelier curation and put it in the restaurant, on the retail shelf so that when you're serving Nomadica at your home, at parties and the beach, 99% percent of people will love it.


I'm doing the work on the back end on blending, sourcing, creating these flavor profiles that's really taking that wine experience, that decade plus of developing my own palette and giving it back to the consumer. 


Joe Winger: 


What are the best ways to follow your journey and to learn more about you?


Kristin Olszewski: 


You can buy Nomadica online and our new rosé yuzu spritz, which is delicious at www.ExploreNomadica.com.

  • 7. We give Palisade, Colorado a taste as Joe Winger talks with The Ordinary Fellow Winemaker Ben Parsons about wine, food and adventures.

    38:55||Season 2, Ep. 7
    Joe Winger: Just to touch on background a little bit, you were the winemaker and founder of a very successful urban winery, the Infinite Monkey Theorem. Then you chose to move on to where you are now at The Ordinary Fellow. What was that transition like for you?Ben Parsons: The Infinite Monkey Theorem was really about disrupting the wine industry and trying to make wine fun and relevant and accessible. We were the first ones in the U.S. to put wine in the can. We started kegging in 2008. It was really about creating these urban winery spaces, just a tap room for a craft brewery in a city where everyone could come down and enjoy. After 11 years of taking that to a 100,000 case production distributed in 42 states, there was a really good opportunity for me to get back to what I wanted to do, which is being in a vineyard.Even though that might sound like a cliche, there is something quite romantic about farming and being surrounded by nature and really trying to make the very best wine you can from Colorado fruit that you grow and putting it in a bottle versus buying someone else’s wine and putting it in a can, they’re like two very different things.I had an opportunity to take over a vineyard in southwest Colorado down in the Four Corners just outside of Cortez, where the Four Corners meet. It was in disrepair and hadn’t been pruned in four years. So I got back in there and now it’s looking really good.So that’s taken 4 years. Yeah it’s relatively small. It’s 13 acres of Riesling, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon. Sits at 6,000 feet elevation. So very high for a commercial vineyard. And it’s beautiful. It sits on a national monument called the Yucca House, which is an un-excavated ancestral Pueblan ruin from between the 10th and 12th century.Starts at Mesa Verde, which most people are familiar with for the ancestral cliff dwellings from the Pueblans down there. It’s just a beautiful location. Yeah, two very different things, but kind of coming full circle almost as to what I got me into the industry in the beginning, back in the late 90s.And now back there, but doing it on my own.Joe Winger: You chose to be in Palisade, Colorado making your wine. Tell us a little bit about the region and why someone should come visit you in Colorado?Ben Parsons: Palisade is beautiful. It’s on the Western slope of Colorado. It’s about a 4 hour drive West of Denver over the mountains.About 4 1/2 hours East of Salt Lake City. It’s an American Viticultural Area designate called the Grand Valley and it’s pretty stunning. It’s known for its fruit. It’s actually known for its peaches, believe it or not. Some of the best peaches grown anywhere in the United States. Arguably the best. But it’s a very small microclimate.
