It’s getting hot out there—and it only takes a few hours of high heat to seriously damage a bottle of wine. In this episode, Joanne explains what heat damage actually does to wine, how you can spot it, and what you can do to protect your bottles at every stage—from delivery trucks to the trunk of your car.
She shares real-world examples from the wine shop (including those dreaded summer deliveries), explains why most wineries won’t ship wine in summer, and offers smart tips for protecting your bottles—including her golden rule: treat wine like you would a side of salmon.
Whether you're a wine student, a collector, or just picking up a few bottles for dinner, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
