But w**e is complicated, like love. Take price, for instance. Why is it that some bottles cost a few shekels while others cost thousands of dollars?

Wunder Vin - Tim Gaiser MS 10/28/2026

🍷 My thoughts on this $7 bottle from Trader Joe's and the story behind it.

Wunder Vin - Tim Gaiser MS Some changes to EU laws were w**eries being allowed to use oak chips for regional w**es, to use various means to remove alcohol from a w**e, adding powdered tannin to a red w**e, and to acidulate w**e as needed.

"Thousands of sommeliers have been lucky enough to learn from Master Sommelier Tim Gaiser. Here's your chance to do the same: a basic guide to everything you want to know about w**e, clearly explained by the best in the business. The chapter on w**e in restaurants should be required reading for anyone who dines out, and everyone who serves them."

~Paul Wagner, W**e Industry Marketing Expert, McPherson Distinguished Teacher and Author

Terroir redefined - Tim Gaiser MS 10/23/2026

In my role as sommelier, it was my charge to take care of the guests and not bias their experience with my opinions ... even in the most extreme cases.

How to Taste W**e Like a Master Sommelier | Barrels and Roots 10/22/2026

If you’ve ever thought, “I like w**e, but I have absolutely no idea what I’m supposed to be tasting,” this conversation is for you.

I went back on Barrels & Roots with Sean Trace to talk about how smell and taste work together, how our brains connect aromas with memories, why certain smells can be difficult to identify even when they feel familiar, and how repetition can dramatically improve your ability to recognize what’s happening in the glass.

The Dubiety Scale 10/21/2026

Part of living in adult land is figuring out where something is on the dubiety scale.

The Dubiety Scale I just saw the word dubiety used in an article by author Joseph Epstein.

10/20/2026

I’m delighted to announce that First Glass is out. And the book hit #1 in multiple new-release categories on Amazon.

This book has been forty years in the making. Every class I’ve taught, every question I’ve fielded at a tasting table, and all the passion I have for w**e went into it.

Finally putting it in readers’ hands means a great deal to me. To everyone who was part of the launch, thank you for being on the team that made this happen.

Now that First Glass is out in the world, feel free to share it with anyone in your life who’s curious about w**e (🍷 it also makes a good gift).
