It’s hard to imagine, but the wine app Vivino now has a whopping 8 million plus users around the globe and it’s meteoric growth seems unstoppable. So what happens when the companies leaders decide to use the gargantuan database to figure out what the world loves to drink? Find out as Host David Wilson goes behind the scenes of Vivino with the company’s founder and CEO Heimi Zachariassen. It’s an amazing discussion about an amazing app.
Also on this week’s show, David risks it all by doing a little custom blending for one of the hottest winemakers in the business, Adam Lazarre. Will Adam find David’s custom blend of wines around the world luscious or laughable. No editing here. It’s the whole truth and nothing but the truth for all the world to hear.
On this week’s segment of Sipping with Sara, David and Sunset Magazine’s wine editor discuss the rise in popularity of Petit Sirah and speculate if another Petit wine has an equally bright future.
All this plus the latest wine news from Chief Wine News Correspondent Larry Gifford. It’s a Grape way to spend an hour!
