tariff – Drunk Bitches Podcast

While we have been sipping, wine sales have been dipping! The wine world is suffering from a decline in those who consume our favorite beverage, which has led to wineries closing their doors, grapes being left behind on the vine and an industry grappling with what to do next. Is this just a temporary shift or is the start of a downward spiral? We delve into the various factors affecting this trend, the evolving market, and if this a true Decline of Wine. We urge you to pop a bottle and drink along with us, if only to support the future of the wine world.

You may have noticed your favorite French wine has recently disappeared from the shelves, or perhaps that Spanish Garnacha you love is a few dollars more. This is likely due to the wine tariffs introduced last year imparting an extra fee on certain goods (ahem…wine) from certain European countries. In this episode, we clarify which wines are affected and why this tariff even started in the first place (what does wine have to do with airplanes?!). While we are all about ‘Made in America’ we do love those German Rieslings and other wines made ‘across the pond’. Grab a glass of your fave European wine and listen in to find out if you should be stocking up!
