Cork Taint is a wine-focused podcast that describes itself as a lifestyle rather than just a show. It shares unorthodox takes on wine culture, including the idea that Burgundy is overrated and that Zinfandel was the wine Jesus made from water. Bonus episodes are available exclusively to Patreon supporters on alternating weeks.
