The VinePair Podcast: Why We’re Honest About the Wine Industry
Here on the “VinePair Podcast,” we talk a lot about the wine industry. Wine isn’t doing great right now — that’s not a secret, and it’s also not negative to point it out. The status quo isn’t working, and being blunt about it from a business perspective isn’t a cynical thing. If anything, it’s coming from a place of advocacy.
This podcast is hosted by three individuals who are staunchly pro-wine, but they’re not cheerleaders, and championing everything in a category simply because the category at large is struggling isn’t beneficial to anyone. Ultimately, any “criticism” of the wine industry is coming from a desire to see the category succeed, and right now, it isn’t.
Today on the “VinePair Podcast,” Adam, Joanna, and Zach respond to a frequent comment about being negative about the present and future of the wine industry: Shouldn’t we be cheerleading an industry that we love and want to succeed? Is the role of journalists to root for the industry they cover? Can different kinds of content live within one publication? Tune in for more.
