The Four Top

A wine news podcast hosted by @kcoleuncorked and Martin Reyes, MW.

The Champenoise are at odds over foil necks. Are they important to Champagne's image, or should we let them go in the name of sustainability? (And do you agree with @rubywelk and I that paper tabs just look better?) Listen to Ep. 152 of @The4Top : https://t.co/bnhCfCJlo9

[Katherine Cole @kcoleuncorked]

We want your input! Large-format wine bottles have some wild names. Is it time to rename them? Any suggestions? Let us know in the comments, and check out Ep. 147 of @The4Top: https://t.co/F9oEqFLmwC

We all have that one winemaker we absolutely adore. Would you put them in office if you had the chance?

Major longitudinal studies have shown that moderate wine drinkers live 12 years longer, and have significantly lower risks of diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and cancer. Can you imagine a pill or supplement that could promise the same results? https://t.co/qllyl4MZiV

[Katherine Cole @kcoleuncorked]

Places like Abruzzo and The Okanagan have lost nearly all of their crop due to extreme weather. What can winegrowers do about weather extremes?

According to @nytimes and @WSJ, consumers are sipping less wine and micro-dosing more psilocybin, all in the name of wellness. Are you seeing people dropping (tartaric) acid and embracing shrooms?

It's the little things that count, but how do you keep track of them all? It helps to have a friend, like Napa Green, to show you where to look. In the meantime, catch up on our most recent season to learn how to make positive change in the #wine industry. Link in bio!

Bacteria and beasts and botany, oh my! The natural world is full of symbiosis; a harmony that humans have actively messed with for a long time. It's time to get back to a reciprocal understanding of plant, animal, and bug life. Hear more from @jamiegoode via the link in our bio.
