The Wine Vault is a podcast where the focus is on wine and irreverence, but not necessarily in that order. So join us and learn a little about wine, a little about culture, and have a laugh, here on The Wine Vault.
Our show began in January of 2017, releasing every week on Sunday nights. We approach the world of wine a bit differently, with a bit of knowledge, no pretension (well, maybe a little), and a lot of irreverence. We review wines from around the world, from aged classics to wines from a gas station. So, if you love wine, or simply love a good time, join us and share in the experience. Cheers!
