Wine is an ancient beverage. Throughout its history, opinions on whether drinking wine is beneficial or detrimental to our health have been changeable and contentious. Today, viral health trends, powerful interest groups, and the wine industry all vie for influence--making it harder than ever to separate fact from fiction. Savor brings together a winemaker and medical doctor, scientists, and a cultural historian to explore the emerging research and discuss longstanding ideas about what’s in your wine glass.
