Episode 212: After 10 Grammy Wins, Norah Jones' Pivot to Wine Is Hitting the Right Notes

With ten Grammy wins and twenty nominations, it's safe to say that Norah Jones has had a successful career in the music industry. The epitome of a multi-hyphenate artist, Jones has released nine solo albums, made appearances in movies like Wong Kar Wai's My Blueberry Nights and Seth McFarlane's Ted , and now hosts her own podcast, " Norah Jones Is Playing Along. " Recently, Jones added another hyphenate to the growing list—she became part-owner of the French winery Maison Wessman , creating a line of wines she calls " This Life ." Now, Jones isn't representing herself as a technical wine expert here—her focus is more based on taste, mood, and gut feeling. In that way, she views the business quite similarly to how she approaches music. There's overlap between the two art forms, and "This Life" seeks to draw a line between them: the rosé and crémant are marketed as "a melody in every glass." For this episode of the Wine Enthusiast Podcast , we were lucky enough to have Norah Jones stop by and chat with writer-at-large Matt Kettmann , who reviews wines from California and Languedoc-Roussillon —including Jones' This Life 2024 Crémant de Limoux (which received a score of 91 points). The two touch on how this collaboration came to be, how Jones settled on the "This Life" name, and new projects she has on the horizon. Is there a guest you want us to interview?
