Waaaay back in 2021 Hiro was Mike's guest on episode #5. Hiro was at the time, and still remains the youngest guest to apear on the show. The guys theorize as to why "the youths" aren't getting into wine in a big way, and what that means for the industry as a whole. Also Hiro tells us what he's up to now, how his winery came to close, and of course wines are sipped and discussed! It's a great and mellow chat.

Wanna see the guys and the wines and more? Follow along on Instagram!
