What We’re Drinking This Week: Sicilian Dessert Wine & Loire Muscadet

May 16, 2025

In this week’s episode, Michelle and Julia raise a glass to doing business in a way that actually feels good and honors who we are. While chatting with guest Becky Mollenkamp about what the future of feminist business could look like, they also share two bottles worth adding to your list.

With every episode, you’ll have an opportunity to meet two new fabulous wines and spirits to explore.

Donnafugata Ben Ryé

Michelle brings the sweet with Donnafugata’s Ben Ryé, a luscious Sicilian dessert wine from the island of Pantelleria—closer to Tunisia than the Italian mainland. Expect notes of butterscotch, hazelnut, and caramel. It’s elegantly sweet and built for pairing with crème brûlée, churros, or even a cinnamon-kissed Portuguese custard tart.

Famille Lieubeau Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Goulaine

Julia pours the Famille Lieubeau Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Goulaine, a crisp white from the Loire Valley. Bright and citrusy, it’s made for oysters, crab cakes, or your next brunch spread.
