We Like Drinking Podcast


The truth is, most of us don't just drink one type of drink, we enjoy all kinds of adult beverages. The majority of the podcast and blogging world, however, sees the world through their own myopic drinking glasses. It's either all beer, all wine, or all spirits, in other words, they're boringly singular. We Like Drinking recognizes that the drink you crave depends on the situation, environment, mood and a host of other things. This podcast works hard to have fun first and maybe teach you something about your favorite drinks.

Panel Intros And What We’re Drinking With Stu Smith

  • In May of 1971, at 22 years young, our guest tonight, along with his brother Charles founded the Smith-Madrone winery high up in the Spring Mountain District of Napa Valley. Named after the brothers Smith, and the Madrone trees that inhabit the property, Smith Madrone is currently producing Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Cook’s Flat Reserve, and Riesling. He has served on Napa County’s Watershed Task Force and the Napa County General Plan Steering Committee, and so much more that all revolves around being outdoors in nature, he is Stu Smith!
