Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Cork Talk with Philippe Melka
Q: I want to ask you about 100 point wines, because I think you've got some of them; do you keep a tally?
There isn't a fixed tally for me; it's more about the experience of making wines that resonate with terroir and the winery's philosophy, and recognizing that scores are part of a shifting landscape rather than a sole measure of quality.
Cork Talk with Jade Gross
Q: So, I mean, what put you off?
Jade explains that she found the nonprofit path unfulfilling due to red tape and limited impact, which pushed her to pivot toward culinary and later winemaking, driven by personal happiness and a search for a new challenge.
Cork Talk with Chiara Boschis
Q: Has climate change been broadly a positive thing for Barolo?
She notes a shift from past vintage variability to a broader range of vintages, with some hotter, more powerful yet sometimes fresher profiles, but emphasizes increased unpredictability and more extreme weather requiring adaptation.
Cork Talk with Chiara Boschis
Q: When did you decide you wanted to become a winemaker?
Chiara explains she always loved the atmosphere of winemaking and, despite studying economics, felt drawn to farming and wine; she ultimately pursued winemaking with family support and built her path through hands-on experience and mentorship within the Barolo community.
Cork Talk with Richard Kershaw
Q: What made you want to set up your own label that began in 2012?
Richard Kershaw felt it was an opportunity to do his own thing after passing his Master of Wine.
