  • Does this wine taste fishy to you?
    Jun 25 2024

    In South Africa, the biggest manufacturer of glass bottles once ran an advert in which a university student, wanting to impress his new girlfriend who was arriving soon for a dinner date, decanted cheap wine from a box into an empty glass bottle he had to hand.



    That was tongue-in-cheek, but misrepresenting cheap wine And we're not talking about passing off a bottle of $5 wine as a bottle of $10 wine, of course, when we're talking about fine Bordeaux, the stakes are a lot higher: I've previously supported my long-lost cousins by splurging on 6 bottles of Chateau Lagrange for £300 Christmas that was both far more than I should have spent and far less than we're talking about here, there is a bottle of Chateau Lafite Rothschild that's a year older than my little brother and currently on sale for £42,000!



    These days, if I'm going to drink French wine, it is the exceptional Domaine Baudon straight from the winemakers and their new horse.



    A good sommelier could identify a bottle of plonk, even in a suitably dusty bottle, but you can't really scale a good sommelier. That's where Professor Alexandre Pouget and colleagues step in with an AI-powered model to detect fake wine: https://www.theguardian.com/science/2023/dec/04/researchers-create-ai-tool-detect-fraudulent-wine

    I'm not a great gardener, so I was really impressed when we first got an app that could look at the leaves on my trees and give me some insights into their health and needs. Turns out, that was nothing, Imeshi Weerasinghe has been doing the same thing... but from space 🛰️



    Imeshi is the co-founder and CEO of WEO - a company that specialises in environmental management using Earth Observation data, deep learning models, and citizen science.



    You can find Imeshi on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/imeshi-weerasinghe-84b45128/



    Or jump straight to Weo's homepage at https://www.weo-water.com/



    When I spoke to Russell for this, he was at Equitorial Launch Australia 🚀, if you have a rocket in our atmosphere that really should be outside it, check them out at https://ela.space/ But Russell is now at Civica who are over at https://www.civica.com/en-gb/
