Tina Vaughn and her Chef/Partner/Husband Chip Smith received a 3-star NY times review in January of 2024 for their restaurant Eulalie, a jewel-box of hospitality in Tribeca.
Manuel Aragón Fino Granero sherry El Maestro Sierra Amontillado Anticuario Sherry
In this episode, Tina recounts her journey from Rockette to restaurants, the mission of hospitality and how to pair wine fearlessly from a place of learning and gastronomy.
If a restaurant with only a phone number for reservations (no reservation system like Resy or Open table) that leads to a notoriously long voice-message and presents hand-written menus with food from a chef that cooked with Jean-Louis Palladin in a dining room where wine is poured fearlessly AND you can actually talk without shouting is what you crave (and why wouldn't you?), then Eulalie is a place for you.
This is the second 3 star NY times review for this talented couple. Their first was for The Simone, which opened in 2013 and closed in 2022 after the pandemic.
We shared two wines, and they were fan-tastic:Find them anywhere that shares the porrón.

In this podcast, Telmo Rodriguez transports us through time, sharing how the vibrant spirit of the land beckoned his family to the winegrowing tradition against any logic in the 1960's at the iconic family estate called Remelluri. The tale unfolds, revealing ancient roots, a learning journey uncovering the nearly lost terroirs of Spain and contemporary resurgence as we peer into Telmo's captivating history and the familial bonds entwined with the land that inspired him.
It's a story of homecoming and heritage, of navigating the complex choreography of family-run winery dynamics, all while ushering in an era of newfound recognition revealing the treasure that is Remelluri, a rare organic and mountainous Rioja estate.
We explore the wine industry's new interest in village-specific Rioja. It's here we uncover the burgeoning appreciation for wines truly reflective of their terroir in Rioja forging ahead against the powerful market of generic Rioja, much like the celebrated artisans of Grower Champagne fighting the battle against the big houses.
Do you know where your Rioja is from?
A very important question that will decide the future in Rioja and is being answered through the work of Telmo, the growers, the next generation that is inspired to create a new narrative, and those that share the Porrón.Follow us on IG: @demaisoneast and @theporroncast

Fresh off a four year stint in living in Galicia and Rioja, Noah Chichester gives an insider's picture of the history and importance of the terroirs and wines of Galicia.
In this episode, we wade into the depths of Galicia's viticultural renaissance, where historical vineyards are being tenderly nursed back to life by the hands of dedicated revivalists like Telmo Rodríguez, Luis Anxo, Emilio Rojo, and more.
Noah guides us through a land where the supernatural weaves seamlessly with the everyday, and deep traditions coexist in a harmonious cultural tapestry. It's an exploration of an area where the very energy of the land is as integral to the flavor of the wine as the grapes themselves, and each glass serves as a portal to the mystical charm of Galicia.Noah wrote the first english language website and verified reference point on the wines of Galicia: winesofgalicia.com. Check it out if you want to learn more about the magic of Galicia.

Talented and NPR-voiced De Maison Spirits/NoLo manager, Annie Beebe-Tron, decodes the future of French whisky in the US by drawing a circle around the next important narrative in the landscape of artisan spirits by highlighting one of the great up-and-coming French Whisky Distilleries on the scene: T.O.S. Distillery in the Hauts-de-France - a young venture already making waves within the sea of the whisky world.
Quietly, French whiskey has experienced a remarkable transformation over the last two decades, with over 100 distilleries now dotting the French landscape.
On this episode, Annie walks us through a primer on French Whisky and the protected areas, and highlights T.O.S. 'Artesia' Pure Malt Whisky, a single malt, single distilled whiskey matured in ex-bourbon casks with a whisper of French oak.
The Genièvre 'Boutefeu', a traditional, un-aged, grain-based spirit from the area aromatized with juniper berries.
And finally, one of the rare Eau-de-Vie de Bière in the US, the T.O.S. 'Humulus'.
Seeped in the aroma of local terroir and slow fermentation, these handcrafted spirits bear testimony to T.O.S.'s respect for tradition, innovation and craft.For more Craft, Follow De Maison Spirits on IG
