Josh Groban on Becoming a Wine Nerd and His New Role in ‘Sweeney Todd’ | Eater
"A California winery that partnered with musician Josh Groban to launch “Joshgiving,” a seasonal initiative encouraging acts of gratitude ahead of Thanksgiving and supporting community through food, wine, and art. The collaboration included a $100,000 donation to arts nonprofit Sing for Hope and highlights the winery’s role in Groban’s approach to wine-and-food pairings—he specifically reaches for their cabernet for special-occasion dinners and cites conversations with their winemaker, Joseph Carr, as part of his learning. Framed as a way to reconnect people after the isolation of the pandemic, the partnership emphasizes accessible, enjoyable wines that pair with home-cooked meals rather than snobbish wine culture." - Amy McCarthy
