“This truly is a dream come true for me,” said Wine Oh TV’s Monique Soltani. “I always envisioned Wine Oh TV as a weekly half hour show that would air in prime-time and on Wine Wednesdays of course. As a California girl born and raised, I can’t think of a better network to partner with than Comcast. Comcast’s commitment to creating and distributing content by and for Californians is what drew me to the network in the first place. I’m so grateful for this opportunity to share compelling stories and my love for travel, food, and wine with audiences across the Golden State.”
