Ahead of the Curve with New Zealand Chardonnay

Chardonnay polarises people. But times change and this is a grape that's moved on - arguably nowhere more so than in New Zealand, which in recent years has started to deliver quality, diversity and great value in spades. It's timely, too, given the supply shortages and booming prices of the wines from Chardonnay's motherland in Burgundy. We're Chardonnay superfans and we've been licking our lips at how far and fast New Zealand Chardonnay has evolved lately. So it's exciting to hook up with New Zealand Winegrowers for this sponsored episode charting that dramatic evolution and exploring why there's more to the land of the long white cloud than Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. New Zealand wine superstars Michael Brajkovich MW (Kumeu River) and Master Sommelier Cameron Douglas give us the inside track, full of eye-opening insights and informed opinion. Including the following quote: 'I'm just gonna come out and say it: New Zealand Chardonnay can outclass Burgundy.' There's a bit of geeking

S2E7: Finding Magic in Vosne-Romanée

This episode of Roadside Terroir explores the human connection to the mythical vineyards of Vosne-Romanée. We test the boundaries of this world-renowned village – physically and politically, and explore how human actions have impacted the geology of the slope, and the character of the wines. We uncover the mythology of the village, and hear from legendary voices. In the vineyards, we shift our perspective to consider the individual vines, working together as a living, changing entity before tasting some of the most precious wines on the planet. This exploration opened our minds to a deeper meaning of terroir and the magic that can be found in a bottle of wine. Thank you to our guests: Marie-Andrée Mugneret, Pascal Mugneret, Charles Lachaux, and Aubert de Villaine. And to Rajat Parr, Paul Wasserman, Daniel Johnnes, Jasper Morris, and Françoise Vannier for your commentary and expertise. This episode was created by Brenna Quigley, Nick Canepa, and Jeff Alvarez.

Caroline has the misfortune of going on her 10th anniversary trip alone to England, after discovering her husband’s affair.

Épisode 45 : Thomas Pico, éthique et esthétique

Thomas Pico, Domaine Pattes Loup, Courgis, Bourgogne Cela fait bientôt quatre ans que ce podcast existe. Quatre ans que nous sillonnons les routes de France à la recherche des plus fins nectars et à la découverte des personnalités qui font ces vins. Et pour fêter cela, nous avons décidé de retourner à Courgis où nous avions enregistré pour la toute première fois avec Alice et Olivier de Moor. Mais cette fois, nous avons rencontré une autre figure importante de ce village viticole : Thomas Pico, du domaine Pattes Loup. Depuis bientôt 20 ans, Thomas trace sa route, sans langue de bois et avec une éthique de travail qui lui permet de produire des vins recherchés dans le monde entier. Si ces vins ont ce style, ce caractère, c’est bien entendu grâce au chardonnay, au climat et aux sols de Chablis . Mais c’est aussi parce que c’est Thomas Pico qui les fait, et personne d’autre. Soit la définition même d’un vin de terroir. Nous avons plus que jamais besoin de vous pour grandir. Un commentaire
