Episode 6.2 - Randi Brady, Diversified Vines and Taste the Playlist

This episode features Randi Brady, creator of Diversified Vines and Taste the Playlist. She is a wine enthusiast originally from Harlem who is committed to bridging the gap between the gritty elements of hip-hop and the nuanced world of wine. She has spent the last three years creating her wine brand platform, but her most recent project is an event that allows guests to enjoy a curated playlist intently paired with fine wine. As a student of both hip-hop and wine, Randi has developed a unique perspective of interlacing the two. Influenced by her appetite for learning and passion, she decided to start on the WSET path in 2019 to advance her wine education. She currently holds a WSET 2 Award in Wines and is looking forward to starting the Champagne Master-Level program offered by Wine Scholar Guild. We talk about some of her favorite wine and music pairings - specifically a 2018 Vincent & Sophie Morey Bourgogne with 80s hip-hop! - and some of her guiding principles. You can follow her journey online @diversifiedvines and @tastetheplaylist, and you can visit www.diversifiedvines.com for her playlists and event updates.
