Terroir What is it Good For?

Hello and welcome to Episode 6 of the Grape to Glass podcast, and this week we are deconstructing Terroir. That mysterious word that is used by Sommeliers, wine magazines, to tasting room personnel.  We also dive in to American Viticultural Areas and how to use terroir to create them.  Spring is here so this is just the start of our Deconstructing Viticulture series.  We thank you for being here and please leave us a review on whatever app you are listening to us on.  Also check us out on Instagram @grapetoglasspod and join in the conversation.  Below are some of our sources that we used, and links to continue your investigation of terroir.
