On this special Mother’s Day edition of Unwined with Mandi, host Mandi Robertson celebrated moms with heartfelt stories, delicious food, and wines perfect for raising a glass to the women who do it all.

The show featured Mandi’s top wines of the week, carefully chosen for Mother’s Day celebrations — from brunch tables to elegant family dinners — with a focus on wines that feel joyful, approachable, and memorable.

Joining the show was Teresa Araújo from Sogrape to discuss the iconic Mateus Rosé from Portugal. The conversation explored the beauty of Portugal’s regional grape blends and how Mateus Rosé became one of the world’s most recognizable wines. Listeners also heard the touching historical story behind the bottle’s unique shape — inspired by the flasks used during World War II — a design that has remained virtually unchanged for decades and continues to symbolize both nostalgia and timeless style.

The culinary side of Mother’s Day came courtesy of recipe developer Cristina Iacono, who shared a comforting yet elegant chicken piccata recipe perfect for treating mom at home. The discussion highlighted bright Mediterranean flavours, simple preparation, and why thoughtful home cooking can sometimes be the greatest gift of all.

And bringing some humor and heart to the show was Mother’s Day “spoiling expert” Jake Robertson, who joined Mandi to talk about the little things that make moms feel appreciated — adding a fun, personal, and family-centered touch to the episode.
