About Dietmar Ostermann

---

My channel is all about wine tasting.
I introduce the viewers to the art of wine tasting in a fun and educating setting.
We will cover mostly reds. High focus is on California, Italian and French wines.
More often than not, I will be tasting California Cabernet Sauvignons, Italian Barolos, Chianti and Brunellos. At times I am digressing to French Bordeaux, Spanish Rioja, Oregon Pinot Noir or Argentinian Malbec. However, my favorite wines, Napa Valley Cabernets, will be discussed most often.
Have fun with it!
