WHO WE ARE
Disgorgeous is a wine-focused group of industry professionals who don’t take ourselves too seriously, based mostly in the USA, producing stories about wine in various media outlets.
We produce podcasts, write zines, make shows, talk shit, and generally have a good fucking time when it comes to talking about the things no one ever wants to talk about with wine, like its human costs, its ugly histories, its beautiful philosophies, and its brutal realities.
If you’re looking for tasting notes, you’ve come to the wrong place.
