*Special Encore Episode* Should You Judge a Wine by Its Bottle?? How to Shop Smarter

I'm re- releasing on of our most listened to episodes from Jan 2024 with additional edits and bonus content!

If you've ever felt a bit (or totally) overwhelmed by all of the wine bottles staring back at you from their store shelves, you’re going to want to listen in as I give you some simple hacks to help you pick the right wine each time.

I’ll break down:

• How to decipher wine labels to look for clues to pick your perfect style
• How the bottle shape can clue you in as to what’s inside if the label isn’t obvious
• What the location in the store (and even on the shelf) can tell you about the wine

These quick and simple ideas should help you feel more confident next time you find yourself in the wine store so you don’t just select your wine by the coolest label (which might be ok too, as long as you like what's inside!)
