Debunking Common Wine Myths
In this episode of After Wine School, hosts Keith Wallace and Alana Zerbe from the Wine School of Philadelphia tackle five prevalent wine myths. They debunk misconceptions such as 'expensive wines are always better,' the idea that 'cheap wine is always bad,' and the notion that 'sommelier are gods.' They also discuss the importance of swirling wine and clarify that 'old wine is always better' isn't necessarily true. Throughout the discussion, they provide insights on how to get the best wine deals and how to appreciate a variety of wines without falling for common myths. The episode concludes with a lightning round of quick myth debunking and information about their wine certification programs and classes.
