In the new segment of No Sediment channel "Talk Under the VVine", I sat down with Raimonds Tomsons (ASI Best Sommelier of the World 2023) and Ronalds Pētersons (2-time Baltic Sommelier Champion) to discuss whether we really need wine experts and can we trust them, and we end the discussion with a nice blind tasting to see if all three wine experts can come to a common conclusion. You can also listen to the No Sediment Wine Podcast and Talk Under the Vine episodes on Spotify, Apple Podcast, Amazon Music, Google Podcasts and Castbox.
