It is about what happens when wine, travel, and people come together in the best way possible.</p><p>You can feel it in the conversation. It is real excitement for something that has not even happened yet, and the realization of how special it is going to be.</p><ul><li>Why a river cruise is a completely different way to experience wine</li><li>How strangers become friends and friends become family</li><li>Bringing Paso Robles wines onto a global stage</li><li>The collaboration between Epoch and LXV</li><li>Food, spice, terroir, and culture all in one place</li><li>Why this trip feels different from anything else</li></ul><p>• The trip</p><p><a href="https://www.corkandcruise.com/homedanube2027" style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(17,85,204);">Danube River Cruise</a></p><p> Nuremberg to Austria to Budapest</p><p> November 6 to 13, 2027</p><p>This is medieval towns, castles, imperial cities, and vineyard lined landscapes paired with world class wines and intimate experiences on board.</p><p>It is not just a vacation.

He created and produced, ‘The Cork Dorks’. The show was hosted with Adam and his good friend Jeremy West. It was the first of its kind. It began focusing on central coast wineries but as the show grew, so did their ability to travel and meet other winemakers they found everywhere from Napa to Bordeaux that adopted that same Central Coast quality of people willing to share their wines, and their stories. </p><p></p><p>As the area’s producers grew, soon Adam’s interviews covered everything from spirits, craft beer, cider, cuisine, hospitality, and more. Fast forward to today, the spirit and enthusiasm cultivated with the award winning show, is reborn as The Pour with Adam Montiel, this time independently, and unfettered by corporate authority leaving it even more free to share the journey of making wine more approachable and fun for everyone. </p><p></p><p>Here, We Taste It. We Spill It. We Leave it All On the Table. This is ‘The Pour’ with Adam Montiel.</p><p></p><p>Sincere Thanks to those who support The Pour. Please take a moment and visit them and thank them for supporting local broadcasting, and valuing what we do here. Thank you for supporting them!</p><p></p><p>Original Music, ‘Come Alive’ by Dan Curcio and<a href="https://www.moonshinercollective.com/" style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(17,85,204);"> Moonshiner Collective</a> Moonshiner on Spotify <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/7mb90GXJ4OXcfDg1j5f27A" style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(17,85,204);">HERE</a></p><p></p><p>©2026 The Pour with Adam Montiel / LoBro Studios, All Rights Reserved.</p><p></p><p></p><p></p>
