Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Sam Coverdale (Polperro and Even Keel Wines, Mornington Peninsula) - a passion for cool- climate wines
Q: Tell me about the move after, because Even Keel, 2006, you moved down to Mornington in 2008, is that right?
Yes, we moved; my wife got a transfer, and I scanned options down there. It was quick to decide we could operate out of Mornington, then we bought land and launched Polperro, leveraging local vignards before farming our own blocks.
Sophie Conte (Tregole Estate) - a great time to be a winemaker
Q: If I could buy you three drinks today, what would be the three drinks you would drink for the rest of your life?
Sophie would choose Sangiovese as a red, a sparkling wine such as champagne for a white, and a Daiquiri for a stronger option, highlighting a preference for both Italian roots and diverse styles.
Dan Sims (Chair of Wine Victoria) - a good news story.
Q: Tell me a little bit about your role with Winevic and what the 2025 Winevic Industry Economic Scorecard shows.
Dan explains that as chair of a volunteer board, his role is governance and advocacy for Wine Victoria, and the Scorecard reveals positive signals: strong domestic consumption growth, export expansion, and the broader economic impact across jobs and regional activity.
Dirty Glass with Dani Valent and Shanteh Wale - the life of a wine taster, fine dining, Quay, Yiaga and more
Q: What are your thoughts on the evolution of fine dining and its price/value dynamic?
Fine dining should balance exquisite experience with transparent value, reducing unnecessary excess while focusing on what makes the dining moment special, including the story behind the dish and the sourcing behind it.
Dirty Glass with Dani Valent and Shanteh Wale - the life of a wine taster, fine dining, Quay, Yiaga and more
Q: What is the day in the life of a wine tasting professional like?
It starts with a routine of coffee and organizing wines, and then a mix of researching regional contexts and tasting wines with an emphasis on telling the stories behind them for the reader.
