Got Somme : Master Sommelier's Wine Podcast
What happens when a Master Sommelier mistakes an Australian Merlot for Bordeaux?
In this episode of Got Somme, Carlos Santos goes deep into a blind wine tasting challenge packed with blackcurrant, oak spice, massive confidence… and a few dramatic turns along the way.
From “this is definitely Bordeaux” to correctly calling the grape, alcohol, and vintage, this blind tasting proves just how deceptive great wine can be. Expect chaos, elite palate breakdowns, wine education, and plenty of laughs as Carlos works through every clue in the glass.
If you’ve ever wanted to understand how sommeliers actually taste wine blind, this episode is for you.
