About this listen
Rusty Sellers and Sour Grapes to bust three of the most common wine myths:
Wine Legs Mean Quality
The truth: Legs reflect alcohol and sugar content, not flavor or complexity.
Sour’s take: “The only legs I trust are the ones that walk me out of a bad blind date.”
Older Wine is Always Better
Reality: Only a small fraction of wines age well. Most are meant to be enjoyed young.
Sour’s story: That “aged to perfection” bottle? It tasted like wet socks — even his dog Bubbly wouldn’t touch it.
Expensive Wine Tastes Better
Fact: Price can reflect rarity or reputation, but taste is personal.
Sour’s roast: “$300 for dirty laundry water. My twelve-buck Chianti hit the high notes so good, the lasagna asked for an encore.”
🎙️ Sponsor Spotlight: This episode is bottled by Bubbly Creek Winery — fresh, approachable wines crafted for everyday enjoyment.
