Wine Booty is here!
and the word is out…
“The swashbuckling, wine-soaked love child of “The Colbert Report” and “Pirates of the Caribbean.”‘
-Jessica Yadegaran, San Jose Mercury News
“This is exactly what the wine world needs more of! Fun, top-quality ‘Wine Booty’ from Judd’s Hill.”

“Pirates — and their linguistics — were onto something. “Stash.” “Loot.” “Bounty.” But when it comes to describing the spoils (an oddly used word in of itself) of life’s adventures, none really sum it up as effortlessly and elegantly as “booty.” Booty is bounteous in scope. Naughty by nature. And straight up, just saying the word itself is the beginnings of a smile. The wino pirates in Judd’s Hill’s Wine Booty series are onto something good, too. Something I wish more pompous, self-important, secretly insecure wine snobs would adopt — bona fide wine knowledge packed in a barrel full o’ fun. Wine can be intimidating. But it’s less so with the Wine Booty crew at the helm. These videos give everyday wine-loving schmucks like me some ammo against the prevailing wine douchery of the world. To these lads I raise my glass and say, “Argh!'”
