  • Poor sound quality

    I was excited to find this podcast so I could learn more about Australian wine before I moved to the Barossa to work in the industry, but the poor sound quality makes most of the episodes nearly impossible to listen to. In addition to this, I find many of the interviews to be a bit vague. It would be great to talk a bit more specifically about winemaking styles or interesting history about the winery. No matter what, I won’t be able to realistically listen again until the sound issues have impro... more

  • Some good interviews and interesting people, but so biased when it comes to women!

    She puts so much more work and research into the women she interviews, but just craps on about what wine she's just drank to the men, like she knows something about wine!

    Poor...

  • Very disappointing podcast

    As a wine making student and wine nerd I listen to a number of wine related podcasts, and as much as I want to like this podcast, I don’t.

    For starters, interviewing guests (mostly wine makers in rural regions with sub-par phone reception) over the phone is terrible for audio quality. But my main problem with this podcast is it come across as if the interviewers do ZERO research into who they are interviewing, to the point where the guest seem bewildered by some of the amateur questions. I was... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Loic Avril - Society Rstaurant - Wine list of the Year
Q: Do you think that sometimes sommeliers can overcomplicate wine and wine list? Is it an easy thing that can be done?
Avril agrees that sommeliers can overwhelm guests with large lists and excessive technical detail. He recommends reading the table, noticing how much guidance guests want and acting as a welcoming concierge.
Loic Avril - Society Rstaurant - Wine list of the Year
Q: Do you find that the people who do come in to these venues, the lovely establishments, that they're drinking less, yes, but does it mean that they're actually spending more per glass or bottle of wine that they do purchase?
Avril says guests are drinking less but choosing better-quality wines, and that Coravin lets restaurants offer more premium wines by the glass while preserving them after opening.
Teresa Heuzenroeder - Jansz (Tasmania)
Q: How does that say of méthode Tasmanoise, how does that actually translate to what we're drinking in the glass as a sparkling glass?
She describes it as an overall approach to growing and winemaking, including sustainability, and says Tasmanian sparkling is distinguished by its acidity, structure and palate feel.
Teresa Heuzenroeder - Jansz (Tasmania)
Q: What's it like just really honing in, focusing on a sparkling?
Heuzenroeder says she has made plenty of sparkling wine before and is enjoying returning to Jansz during its 40th anniversary year.
Corinna Wright - Olivers Taranga (McLaren Vale)
Q: What makes Fiano a good idea to turn into a sparkling?
Wright says Fiano's naturally high acidity suits sparkling wine. Olivers Taranga makes a limited traditional-method version with help from sparkling winemaker Kate Lorry, aged three years on lees.
