You've heard of an iPod, but have you heard of a WinePod? Similar to the way way iPods have made listening to music easy, WinePods are promising to make wine making easy. Now that consumers are able to adopt vines, participate in hands-on wine camps and blend their own wines at custom crush facilities, you might be wondering how long it will be before professional winemakers are rendered obsolete.
