Ep. 457 wine2wine Session Recordings | Benefits of a Diverse Wine Industry Dec 12, 2020

Italian Wine Podcast Episode 457: The benefits of a more diverse wine industry.

Audio from Manjaval Janjo's wine2wine 2020 session, with moderator Paul Caputo.

For the last 10 years or so, going as far back as the banking crisis of 2008, most sectors of the wine trade have suffered. Sectors which are seen to excel are more an exception, rather than the rule. Prosecco has been a phenomenal success, but even that curve is beginning to flatten. The wine industry has long wrestled with the challenges of re-inventing, modernising, and promoting itself to a younger audience, while our cousins in the spirits and beer industries have easily embraced and adapted to the modern society in which we all trade. Of course, it’s easy to cite beer’s relative ease of production when compared to wine, and spirit’s versatility as a cocktail ingredient; but are we as an industry missing the bigger picture? Studies from the US have shown that younger audiences continue to view wine as “dad’s drink” as well as being “uncool”. I argue that we can no longer afford to keep wine as an elite club and must find a way to diversify our target audience. We only need to look to the success of other alcoholic beverage categories, to see the correlation between sales figures and their marketing campaigns.

Ep. 458 #everybodyneedsabitofscienza | Tiziana Forni Question Dec 10, 2020

Show notes

GUYS! I know that for the last couple of weeks we've been a lil geeky with the Friday podcasts. It was Scienza, yes, but c'mon, let's be honest over here: we missed Stevie as a mediator. Yes we did. She is exactly what Scienza needs: a big voiced asian/new yorker? Maybe. A tiktok obsessed weirdo? For sure A "I have something like 40 ring lights pointed at me in my office" kinda gal? I let you answer that. But for sure, every time she unsuccessfully tries to land a joke - it is freaking funny. Like she tries so hard it gives me life. It reminds me that trying is already winning. So anywayssssss here's our lil Santa Lucia gift to you. A brand new episode of Everybody Needs a Bit of Scienza, with a question from Tiziana Forni, straight outta the big apple. I think "big apple" sounds very 90ies lmaooooo what do they call it now? the magnum malum? HAH, this joke is for a certain elite -- and by elite I mean the poor kids who were forced to study latin in high school with Orberg method, that consists into learning the language as if it was a still used foreign language. Sic est. Sorry, I went too far, my boss is gonna yell at me coz this text is not SEO friendly... let me fix that: WINE WINE WINE wine wine vino vino grape juice corpus christi grape marzemino stra buono teroldego vitigni podcast che parla di vino

How much do wine and spirit competition scores matter?

If you're looking to get the time and attention of a potential importer in the United States having relevant tasting scores can make all the difference.

One fundamental difference between wine and spirit competitions is each wine vintage has unique characteristics, meaning there may be reasons to submit wines to competitions annually.

Italian Wine Podcast Episode 451: three podcast geeks meet to unveil the secrets of audio format!

Here to another session held on wine2wine Business Forum 2020! Super fresh out of the wine world, woot woot!

Veteren podcasters Monty Waldin (The Italian Wine Podcast) and Lawrence Francis (Interpreting Wine) are joined by fellow wine writer and audio enthusiast Paul Caputo to discuss the future of audio in an increasingly digital wine industry.

They discuss whether, aside from podcasts (doesn’t everyone have a wine podcast these days?), audio might be a format that can be utilised by producers, journalists, wine professionals and consumers to enhance and advance the wine industry in a world that is increasingly having to adapt to use digital strategies of engagement. Wine has always been associated with what we taste and smell, can it be what we hear as well?
