    Under the Sea | Ep 11

    Ageing wine underwater might sound like a novelty, but the idea of cellaring wine beneath the surface has deep historical and scientific roots. From shipwreck discoveries to modern experiments off the ocean floor, underwater ageing challenges what we think we know about time, environment, and wine evolution. In this episode of The VINVERITY Show, we explore why winemakers are experimenting with the sea as a natural ageing environment, and what factors like pressure, temperature stability, darkness, and movement may mean for how a wine develops. 🍷 Want to keep learning wine truths?

    In Defence of the Coupe | Ep 10

    The coupe has been called outdated, impractical, and even “wrong.” But is it? In this episode, we defend one of Champagne’s most iconic glasses and explore why the coupe still deserves a place at the table. From aromatics and effervescence to practicality in service and its deep cultural history, we unpack what the coupe offers that modern flutes often overlook. We look at why bubble loss is often exaggerated, how the open shape can actually enhance aromatic expression, and why the romance and tradition behind the coupe still matter in a world increasingly driven by efficiency and optimisation. If you’ve ever been told there’s only one “correct” way to drink sparkling wine, this episode is your invitation to think differently — and sip more freely. 🍷 Want to deepen your wine knowledge with clarity and confidence?

    Tried and True: Why Massal Selection Is Making a Comeback | Ep 9

    Clonal selection revolutionised modern viticulture — but it also came with unintended consequences. In this episode, we explore massal selection: what it is, how it differs from clonal planting, and why more producers are returning to this older, vineyard-driven approach. From genetic diversity and resilience to flavour complexity and vineyard identity, we unpack why “tried and true” is once again shaping the future of wine. If you’ve ever wondered how vine selection influences what’s in your glass — and why some wines feel more alive than others — this episode is for you. 🍷 Want to keep learning wine truths?

    Is Vintage Variation Real? | Ep 6

    Vintage variation is one of the most talked-about — and most misunderstood — ideas in wine. We see the year printed on the label, we hear about “great” and “terrible” vintages, and we’re often told that wine changes dramatically from year to year. But how real is vintage variation today? In this episode of The VINVERITY Show, we explore what vintage variation actually means, when it truly matters, and why it’s often far less noticeable in modern wine than people expect.   🍷 Want to keep learning wine truths?
