Great write up. Hey, I’d be interested to get your take on the documentary “Sour Grapes,” about one of the greatest wine fraudsters in the US. I think he was using some of the same alchemy you describe, then mixing wines together, fraudulently labeling and bottling them, and selling them at auction for ridiculous prices. He had all the wine magazines fooled too! It’s a fascinating documentary for wine enthusiasts.

incredible film
My takeaway is that it shined a great white spotlight over all the shadiness of the wine industry.
Bitcoin is low intervention wine and the love of wine for the art
Crypto is commodity wine and the chasing of high dollar wine for status
