    Uncork the Sun Ep 16 - Sheila Whittaker of Nostalgia Wines Inc (formerly Oliver Twist)
    Jul 6 2021

    This week, Moss speaks with Sheila Whittaker, the manager of the newly rebranded Nostalgia Wines Inc (formerly known as Oliver Twist). Sheila talks about her work at the winery, how to rebrand an established operation, and the lengths she took to further her own wine education.

    For his part, Moss interrupts his own question 45 seconds into the interview and takes 11 minutes to return to it.

    BONUS FEATURE: Moss and Sheila play a game where they try to name a grape variety for each letter of the alphabet. The results are contentious.
