Wine Wednesday Recap + What’s Next: From the Great White North to the Web3 Cellar
Today at dVIN Labs
From Icewine to Innovation: Canada in the Spotlight
This week’s livestream was a little shorter, a little more laid-back — Dave and I went to my homeland and took you on a quick trip through Canada’s wine regions. Yes, there’s more to it than icewine. We talked about the wild extremes of Niagara, the elegance coming out of the Okanagan, and what makes Canadian Pinot and Chardonnay worth paying attention to right now.
We also shared some behind-the-scenes updates from dVIN Labs — and teased a few drops on the horizon 👀 stay tuned or watch the recap here: https://youtube.com/live/g82i2HAdnuI
Next week, things get a bit more tinto. Co-founder Rodolfo joins Dave for a Wine Wednesday rooted in their shared connection to Argentina. Expect Malbec, bold opinions, and a good dose of dVIN flavor.
🗓 Wednesday, July 9

📊 dVIN Labs Spotlight: When Data Meets Destiny
This week’s article hits close to home. In his 2025 State of the US Wine Industry report, Rob McMillan doesn’t pull any punches: wine is in the middle of a structural reckoning. Demand’s down. Inventory’s stuck. And a whole generation of drinkers is choosing other ways to unwind.
But here’s the good news: everything we’ve been building at dVIN Labs? It’s made for this moment.
From tokenized inventory that frees up capital, to blockchain-powered provenance, to Bacchus AI forecasting what collectors crave next — we’re not watching the storm roll in. We’re the ones building the roof.
🍷 Need the TL;DR?
Liquidity lock-up? Meet Digital Cork NFTs.
Shifting trust? Say hello to unbreakable provenance.
Younger buyers? Bacchus is already tracking what they want.
Misaligned incentives? $VIN rewards the entire supply chain.
This isn’t about applying tech for the sake of it. It’s about preserving what makes wine great — and keeping it viable for the next century.

🍷 See You in Barcelona?
If you’re in town on Monday, July 7, come say hi! Dave and I will be joining Lou Kerner for a special CryptoMondays Barcelona session.
We’ll be talking wine, web3, and what it means to build real-world protocols in a speculative space — all with a glass in hand. The event is free and open to all, but spots are limited.
