5 Must-listen Podcasts for Wine Enthusiasts

We love a good podcast! They allow you to do multiple things at the same time. Pretty convenient if you have far too few hours in your day! Cleaning the kitchen, a workout or a nice long walk; basically everything becomes more fun while listening to an interesting podcast at the same time. Our favorite podcast topic is easy to guess ... wine!

These are our 5 favorite wine podcasts:

3. SOMM TV Podcast
Frequency: It depends. Sometimes once a month, sometimes once a week.
What are we listening to? This is the podcast of Jason Wise, the director of the popular SOMM movies of which three have been released. (and the fourth is in the works, hooray!) The podcast is about wine, food and everything related to it. The stars from the SOMM cast (Brian McClintic, Sabato Sagaria and there he is again… Fred Dame) also drop by regularly.
What to expect: a unique insight into the world of (especially American) somms, brought to you with a lot of humor.

What are we listening to? The podcast of the popular blog Wine Enthusiast is presented by different editors of this online magazine. Topics range from "Bargain Bordeaux" to "New Zealand beyond sauvignon blanc" and "Volcanic wines". A must-listen if you want to keep up to date with the latest trends in the world of wine.
What to expect: Their motto: "Inside every bottle is a story". 

5. Matthew's World of Wine and Drink

What are we listening to? Host Matthew takes us into the world of wine and spirits in fifteen-minute episodes. Every wine-producing country, region and grape is covered.
