Say What? Tannin, Terroir & Other Words We Pretend to Know

Ever feel like wine lingo is its own secret language? In this episode of Pour Temecula, we’re demystifying the terms that swirl around your glass. Your hosts, Rick DeLucio and Shannon Cole, are joined by Sam Capaldi (@samanthasommelier), wine writer Devin Parr, and Heather Rankin of Danza del Sol to answer real listener questions about wine terminology. From the difference between “dry” and “sweet” to what makes a wine “balanced,” we’re breaking it all down in a way that’s fun, approachable, and totally judgment-free.

Whether you're a casual sipper or diving deeper into the world of wine, this episode will help you talk the talk—and sip with confidence. Plus, don’t miss our giveaway for a $25 gift card to Corbeaux Wine and Tea House! Cheers to learning something new.
