This episode pairs well with a glass of wine. 

Sarah starts us off with a lesson in our favourite alcoholic beverage, including the proper lingo and some French history. She tells us the unfortunate tale of the grape louse and how it impacted wine production in the 19th and 20th centuries. She then answers the question everyone is asking: is red wine really good for us?

Becca does a deep dive into the most famous case of wine fraud. It includes auctions for the rich and famous, Thomas Jefferson’s wine collection, and crime, of course. This is the case of Rudy Kurniawan and the story that shook the wine world.
