Episode notes

For thousands of years, wine has been one of the most important beverages in the world.

It has been consumed by common folk and by emperors, and it can be made in a surprisingly wide variety of geographies.

It can be made by backyard vintners as well as by megacorporations.

It is so important that it plays a central role in some religions, yet it is completely banned by others.

Learn more about the history of wine and winemaking and how it has changed over the centuries on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
