Why does a glass of wine smell like blackberries, jasmine, or freshly cut herbs—when it’s made entirely from grapes? 

In this episode, we explore the complex and fascinating science of wine aroma.

 From compounds naturally found in grapes and flowers to the transformative role of fermentation and microbes, we trace how scent molecules form, evolve, and interact with our senses. 

We’ll also examine how genetics, memory, and culture shape the way we experience wine, and why no two noses interpret it quite the same way.
