In this episode of Bottles & Bites Without Borders, host Rob Clark explores how American wine culture stands apart from the rest of the world — from how we buy wine to how we drink it and even how we think about it.

Why do most Americans grab bottles at grocery stores instead of wineries? Why is wine treated as a special-occasion drink instead of part of everyday life? And what can we learn from places like Italy, France, and Spain, where wine flows as naturally as conversation?

Rob breaks down the cultural differences in how Americans approach wine — the marketing, the mindset, and the food pairings — and offers a few simple ways to bring more ease, enjoyment, and authenticity into how we drink.

So pour a glass, relax, and join the conversation. Because understanding how we drink is the first step toward enjoying it even more.

Listen now and discover:

  • Why Americans treat wine as a lifestyle symbol, not a daily staple
  • How marketing and shelf talkers shape what ends up in our carts
  • What European wine culture gets right about simplicity and connection
  • How to bring that everyday ease into your own glass
