In 2010, Radio Host Adam Montiel combined his longtime love for broadcasting with his, then, new love for wine. He created, produced and co-hosted, ‘The Cork Dorks’. The show was hosted with Adam and his good friend Jeremy. It was the first of its kind. It began focusing on central coast wineries but as the show grew, so did their ability to travel and meet other winemakers they found everywhere from Napa to Bordeaux that adopted that same Central Coast quality of people willing to share their wines, and their stories.
As the area grew, soon the show covered everything from spirits, craft beer, cider, cuisine, hospitality, and more. Fast forward to today, the spirit and enthusiasm cultivated with that award winning show, is reborn with 'The Pour', this time independently, and unfettered by corporate authority leaving it even more free to share the journey of making wine more approachable and fun for everyone.
