Guide to Wine Podcast: Episode 47

4 Up and Coming Wine Regions You Don’t Want to Miss

Air Date: Wednesday, April 10th 2024

Listen to the Podcast!

I’m so excited for today’s episode on 4 up and coming wine regions!

And what I love most about this topic is that a listener proposed this idea! I love chatting about anything you’re interested in hearing about!

Now, these regions may not necessarily be new in making wine (in fact some are quite old) but they ARE rising in popularity.

Join me as we explore four regions that each have a unique story and distinctive terroir that is catapulting them into the forefront of the wine industry.

We will learn all about how Armenia is re-building their wine industry and producing wines that are the perfect combo of familiar and unique.

Then we’ll head back to the states to talk about wine being made in none other than New Jersey.

Finally we’ll discuss the amazing sparkling wines being made in England and why Elim, South Africa is being watched by the wine producing regions of the world due to its geographical location.

And you’ll want to listen to the end where I mention 11 more regions that you should be watching! (Because you know I can’t stop at just 4!)

So, are you ready to find a new region of wine to fall in love with? If so, press play!
