Your Weekly Connection to the People, Places and Products That Make Wine So Much Fun! There was a time, not long ago, when wine tasting was regarded as something done by people with specially trained palates and sophisticated sensibilities. Today, wine is being consumed by hundreds of millions of people who drink it simply because it is what they like. Grape Encounters is about the colorful people, the places, the ambiance and the passion that makes wine drinking one of the world's most popular pastimes. Grape Encounters is lighthearted, interactive and a very good time taking listeners out of the studio and into places you won't see on a winery tour.

Love this show. Awesome! 
This is an amazing show that is so fun and unpretentious. They talk about stuff you would never imagine. If you would rather play with your wine than be snobby about it, this is where you need to be!
