Wine Taxes & Their Impact on the American Wine Industry w/ Erik Segelbaum (Part 2)

Picture
Air Date: Wednesday, July 2nd, 2025
listen to the podcast!
Why are wine tariffs making your favorite bottles of wine more expensive? Do these wine tariffs hurt American businesses and consumers more than our foreign counterparts?

Do the words “wine tariffs” make your eyes glaze over or do you low-key panic because you’re not even sure what a wine tariff is? 

In today’s episode, I have Erik Segelbaum back on the podcast and we are discussing all things wine tariffs! Erik is laying out, in an easy-to-understand way, what wine tariffs are, where they came from and most importantly, why they might hit your wallet way harder than you think. 

Erik shares why these tariffs, especially with the US’s unique three-tier alcohol distribution system, end up hurting American small businesses and wine lovers more than they do those of our foreign counterparts.

So, if you are curious about how wine tariffs really affect your wallet, your choices at the store, and the entire American wine industry, then this episode is for you!
