Aflevering 12: Onbekend Spanje!
Wie Spanje zegt, zegt Rioja, Verdejo of een lekker Cavaatje. Niets mis mee, maar er valt nog zoveel meer te ontdekken in dit geweldige wijnland. Iemand die daar alles van weet is Nicole Lammertink, zij importeert al jaren bijzondere wijnen van kleine wijnhuizen uit vooral onbekende gebieden. Weleens gehoord van Asturia de Cantabria of Condado de Huelva? Nou, wij ook niet. En zo zijn er nog veel meer onontdekte pareltjes. Maar wij gaan ze bespreken in de 12e Klare Wijn Podcast: Onbekende Spanje!
podcast· 1h 01m131: Francois Margot - DIAM Cork Closures
This episode of the Podcast features Francois Margot from DIAM Bouchage, a company that designs, manufactures, and markets technological cork closures. Our conversation covers the unique qualities of natural cork and the DIAM's innovations that were developed to address cork closures' mechanical performance, sensorial neutrality, and Oxygen control. Francois describes in great technical detail the production and performance of DIAM's range of cork closures. This is not a podcast sponsored by DIAM. I have been using DIAM corks in the wines I am producing for Terratorium Wines and Naked Wines. Because of those associations I have been motivated to study the DIAM technologies and felt it valuable to share with the podcast audience.

podcast· 32:47Episode 14 - The Midnight Library and Que Sera Syrah
Have you ever wanted a do-over on your life choices? We meet Nora on one of the worst days of her life as she goes to see her childhood librarian, Mrs. Elm, who introduces her to the midnight library where each book contains the life she could have lived if she had made different decisions. Nora doesn’t just read about these lives, she actually lives them until she finds they are wrong for her and she returns to the midnight library with Mrs. Elm. Go along for the ride as she cliff jumps, becomes a celebrity, dates a celebrity, battles a polar bear, becomes a Philosophy professor, wife and mother and runs the Buena Vista Winery with Eduardo. Along the way Nora meets Hugo, who is also a ‘slider’, which means he slides from life to life exploring all the versions of himself he could have been and he helps her understand what is happening and how to navigate it. We discover with Nora and Hugo that our choices change everything and that things we think are all about us (our regrets, our fa
podcast· 1h 06mJames Downes, Shannon Vineyards
Today on the podcast we have James Downes, farmer, viticulturist and part owner with his brother Stuart, of Dunman Way Farm, home of Shannon Vineyards in Elgin. In short, James is a total weapon. His knowledge of the terroir of his farm, and of Elgin in general is extremely engaging and informative. Combine this with an inquisitive mind, a sharp intellect, a thirst for learning and desire to be better at what he does tomorrow than he is today, and the result is one of the most formidable people in the wine industry in South Africa. As you will hear, James’ natural conversational style tends to focus on ideas and questioning – this resulted in the chat touching on a wide range of subjects. You can’t help but be taken along with his enthusiasm and expertise. Please enjoy my conversation with the informative, engaging and humble, James Downes….

podcast· 27:20· S8E3Once Upon a Wine Grape in Afghanistan | S8E3
Wine is mentioned in many historical accounts in Afghanistan, as are the lush vineyards, orchards, and gardens. This is not the first thing many of us think of when we think of this country. This episode started as a curious "poking around" effort into unearthing whatever wine and spirits history Afghanistan had to offer. It resulted in a story with many loose ends that somehow always led back to the humble vine ... with some drunken Mughals along the way.

Episode 13 - The Lost and Found Bookshop and How Wine Becomes Wine
Imagine being celebrated at an award ceremony at a California winery and having your mom and your boyfriend not show up, only to find out they both died in a plane crash on their way. This is the plight of Natalie Harper, who inherits both her mom’s run-down bookshop and care of her grandfather as a result of the tragedy. It seems all is lost, but the shop’s handyman Pete ‘Peach’ Galloway and his daughter Dorothy keep finding solutions...like Dorothy’s favorite author Trevor Dashwood, who always looks for the flip side in any tough situation, coming to do a book signing in the quaint little shop. The characters all find their way from grieving to thriving along the way to saving the shop. The wine we chose to pair with this lovely story is a 2018 Old Vine Zinfandel from Bedrock Wine Company, as it has notes of ‘Peach’, violets and cherries. This company has another thing in common with the story, they rehabilitated old California vineyards and processes much as Natalie started in a Cal
