Vint Podcast

In this archived episode (previously episode 81) of the Vint Podcast, Brady and Billy sat down with Bobby Stuckey, partner and Master Sommelier at Frasca Hospitality Group. The group’s flagship restaurant, Frasca Food and Wine, has won two James Beard awards for excellence in Outstanding Wine Service (2013) and Outstanding Service (2019). 2023 saw the restaurant achieve a Michelin Star and another Outstanding Service award from Michelin Guide. Bobby is one of America’s most accomplished Sommeliers and someone who has dedicated his life to service, bussing tables and pouring wine on the floors of his restaurants. He is also a fierce advocate for the restaurant industry, leading initiatives to protect workers and keep businesses alive during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Along with his successful restaurant businesses, Bobby is co-founder of the Scarpetta Wine Company, which presents the white wines of Friuli, Italy - a region he is most passionate about. In this episode, we talk restaurant work, Friuli, collecting, and how to make service a sustainable and life-long career. Bobby is a titan of the wine world and can offer wise words of advice for any business looking to treat their customers with hospitality. Enjoy!
