Wine Enthusiast Podcast

Seb Pradal is a wine Renaissance man—a vin-aissance man, you could say. An acclaimed French sommelier and owner of the Parisian restaurant La Petite Régalade, Pradal also co-owns a wine-importing company that operates in Mexico and Colombia while simultaneously working as a viticultural consultant on estates in Burgundy, Bordeaux, and the Rhône Valley.

As if that weren't enough to keep his iCal full, he's also the head wine consultant on the Apple TV series Drops of God. Pradal works closely with the show's writers and actors to ensure that every wine-related scene is accurate and authentic.

In this episode, Pradal tells us about how he brought his deep wine industry knowledge to the series, his thoughts on the broader challenges facing the industry, and how working on the show has changed his life.

Wine and football have been on the same team for some time now, with notable players like Charles Woodson, Drew Bledsoe, and Dan Marino stepping into the world. Joining that lineup is Will Blackmon, former Super Bowl champion, 12-year NFL veteran, and founder of Blackmon Cellars and The Wine MVP.  Will approached wine the same way he approached football: with total commitment. He immersed himself in education, mastering everything from vineyard farming to the business of wine, and on some days could be found tending vines straight after practice. Now, Will remains deeply focused on education—continuing to learn himself while sharing that knowledge with aspiring enthusiasts.
