    Episode Summary
    You’ve just come back from a week of learning, wine tasting, and exploring the vineyards of France—you’re full of enthusiasm and new knowledge. But how do you talk about wine with friends and family without coming across as condescending? In this episode, Joanne tackles a thoughtful listener question and shares real advice on how to talk about wine in a way that’s approachable, fun, and respectful—without dulling your passion or making anyone feel uncomfortable.

    In This Episode:

    • How to avoid "winesplaining" and connect instead

    • What to do when someone is wrong without embarrassing them

    • The difference between being helpful and being the wine fact police

    • Connecting wine to other interests: history, gardening, art, food

    • Remembering that wine is about enjoyment—ice cubes and all

    • A few stories from the vineyard and lessons from real life

    • Why a little kindness goes further than a textbook correction

    Key Takeaway:
    Share what you love about wine in a way that invites curiosity, not correction. Be the person who brings others in, not the one who pushes them away.

    About the Episode:
    This week’s listener question comes from Liz, and it’s one many of us can relate to—how do you know when it’s the right time to open a special bottle of wine?

    In this episode, I walk you through the key components that make a wine age-worthy—acidity, tannin, sugar, concentration, and complexity—and how proper storage conditions play a big role in how a wine matures over time. I also share strategies for checking in on how a bottle might be drinking now (even if it’s not yours!) using tools like CellarTracker and Wine-Searcher.

    If you’re sitting on a wine you’ve been saving for the “perfect” moment, this episode might help you decide whether to wait—or go ahead and pull the cork.

    What You’ll Learn:

    • Why most wines are not made to age and are best enjoyed young

    • What structural and sensory traits give a wine aging potential

    • How bottle variation and storage conditions affect aging

    • How to use online tasting notes to guide your drinking window

    • Why sometimes, it’s worth drinking the wine now—and creating a memory

    Ask Your Own Question:
    Got something you’d like to hear about on the podcast? Leave me a voice note through SpeakPipe—the link is always in the newsletter. I’d love to hear from you.

    Thanks for listening, and don’t wait too long—life is short, and the wine is probably ready.
