Of Sarah Palin and Palin Syrah: An Alaska Governor and a Chilean wine

By John Hockenberry, Adaora Udoji, Noel King

Friday, October 3 2008

Just weeks ago, Palin Syrah was a modestly popular organic Chilean wine that went for about $13 a bottle. Then came the Republican National Convention, and the announcement that a very popular Alaska Governor named Sarah Palin was John McCain’s pick for running mate. And Palin Syrah was suddenly not-so-popular. The Takeaway talks to Chris Tavelli — the owner of Yield Wine Bar in San Francisco.

Guest: Chris Tavelli, co-owner of Yield wine bar in San Francisco
