Episode 11: A Monument(al) Conversation with Tyler Magyar of Monument
<p>Another episode of Wet Hot Wine is here and this one is a special one. We're sitting down with Tyler Magyar, founder and one-man operation behind <a href="https://www.ilikemonument.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Monument</a>, to close out our first run of episodes in style.</p><p>Tyler's path to winemaking is not a straight line. In fact it involves a few pretentious turns, and honestly that's what makes it so good. Growing up in his father's Jersey Shore chocolate business gave him a deep love of small, creative work. After years in New York wine retail, a move to Portland, and a series of harvest internships, Monument was born in 2018.</p><p>On the tasting menu we have "Jenny," a world-debut pseudo-rosé and orange blend named for his mother, followed by "Daughter," a pinot noir and syrah blend with a label painted by his niece, and finally "Permanent Piece Syrah," an Applegate Valley syrah dedicated to a long-standing grower relationship and a vintage honoring Roger. Every bottle has a story, and Tyler tells them beautifully.</p><p>Along the way we get into the appeal of Oregon syrah, co-fermentation, wine accessibility and gatekeeping, and what winemaking really looks like when you're a one-man show. Tyler also takes a confident swing at guessing horoscopes and birth order…and we think maybe he should probably stick to winemaking. This episode is equal parts silly and surprisingly introspective, and we close with a tasting-notes Mad Lib that goes exactly as unhinged as you'd hope.</p><p>This is our last episode for a little while. We're taking a summer break from long-form episodes, but you can find us on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/wet.hot.wine/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@WetHotWine" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">YouTube</a> all summer long and we'll be back in the fall with new episodes.</p><p>Whether you're new to Oregon wine, curious about small Portland winemakers, or just want to spend time with someone who makes wine feel approachable and fun — this one's a great place to start.</p>

Episode 10: Who Rules the World? Moms and Mom Winemakers!
<p>In this episode of Wet Hot Wine, a wine podcast on a mission to make wine approachable, we're raising a glass to the women who do it all — and then some.</p><p>This special Mother's Day celebration features some of the most inspiring mom winemakers in the Pacific Northwest. Laurie Lewis and Renee Neely of <a href="https://www.hipchicksdowine.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Hip Chicks Do Wine</a> share what it's really like to raise a son while running a winery, Cristina Gonzales of <a href="https://www.gonzaleswinecompany.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Gonzales Wine Company</a> opens up about building a legacy through low-intervention winemaking in the Willamette Valley, and Lisette Hrapmann of https://lagniappewines.com/<a href="https://lagniappewines.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://lagniappewines.com/</a> out of Hood River and the Columbia Gorge talks about motherhood as the ultimate balancing act.</p><p>On the tasting menu: a Grüner Veltliner from Laurie and Renee's son Tiernan Connor, a Gonzales Wine Company Gewürztraminer, and Lagniappe's "Joie de Vivre" bubbly. The conversation gets real about the beautiful, messy, exhausting truth of motherhood — from bodily fluids and emotional regulation to sibling rivalry and shifting expectations. We talk about the traditions worth passing on, like music, art, and a love of the outdoors. And Laurie and Renee remind us that yes, any wine pairs beautifully with chicken nuggets and mac and cheese.</p><p>We close with a heartwarming segment featuring the moms of the Wet Hot Wine ladies themselves — on video, describing their daughters and weighing in on the big questions: why they drink wine, how wine ages, and what to pour with Italian food.</p><p>Whether you're a mom, you have a mom, or you just love discovering incredible women making wine in the Pacific Northwest — this one's for you. Go text your mom then hit play.</p>

Episode 9: Pairing Budget Pours with Thrifted Scores
<p>In this episode of Wet Hot Wine, one of your new favorite wine podcasts on a mission to make wine approachable, we're hitting the thrift stores and not hitting our budget — because good taste doesn't have to cost a lot.</p><p>The conversation pairs two things we love: bargain wine and intentional consumption. For the wine lineup, we turned to our "Thriends" from Threads for their best bargain picks — and their response did not disappoint. In fact, all three wines we tried came straight from their recommendations. All under $15, we tried a Trader Joe's Bordeaux blanc, a rosé from Josh Cellars, and ended with a Kirkland Pinot Noir. And honestly? They were all ones we'd drink again. Win win!</p><p>We swap thrifted outfit stories, chat about our favorite finds, and share our take on haggling — plus some genuinely useful tips like freezing used books or spraying vodka on fabrics to knock out stubborn odors. (Yes, really!) The conversation gets a little reflective too, touching on reducing our reliance on corporations like Amazon, buying things built to last, and why living in the Pacific Northwest is genuinely a gift when it comes to both wine access and thrift culture. It truly was a bargain episode!</p><p>We close things out with a "spin the bottle" game that keeps it light and maybe a touch silly.</p><p>Whether you're hunting for the best budget wines under $15, looking for thrift store tips, or just trying to consume a little more intentionally — this one's for you. Press play.</p>
