In this special update, host Billy Galanko shares an important announcement about the future of the Vint Wine Podcast. After four years of long-form interviews and Five Questions conversations with leading voices from across the wine world, the show is officially pausing production.

Billy is currently in the process of acquiring the full rights to the podcast catalog, and the YouTube channel, from his former company, Vint. This will be the final episode released under the Vint Wine Podcast name.

Once the acquisition is complete, the show will relaunch in 2026 with a new name, new branding, and its own website, while maintaining the same interview-driven format listeners know and love.

Billy reflects on why the pause is necessary, shares what listeners can expect next year, and thanks the audience for their continued support.
