If there is someone with an overwhelming personality in the world of wine divulgation is Santiago Rivas, also known as WineStar, the crack of the Instacatas and leader of Colectivo Decantado. We had the pleasure of speaking with him and bringing you this conversation on the day his book is published: Quit Everything or Quit Wine: Addictions, ‘winelovers’ and other delusional issues that define the new era of wine as a show.

Of course we talked about his book and also about these very interesting topics:

➔ Why the wine world takes itself so seriously.

➔ How wine has destroyed the wine ego of consumers.

➔ Wine as a predictor of personality.
