videoTorbreck Wines: Is This Australia’s Best Shiraz?
We all know and love the Woodcutter’s Shiraz, but today Nick is tasting the rare, allocated ICONS from Torbreck! 🍷 The Factor: 100% Shiraz that pays homage to the Northern Rhone. It’s not a jammy fruit-bomb; it’s savory and "gamey," with deep notes of blackberry paste, licorice, and Turkish coffee. The RunRig: This is Torbreck's answer to Penfolds Grange or Hill of Grace. Made from ancient vines (some up to 120 years old!), this blend of 98% Shiraz and a splash of Viognier is a complete masterpiece. Think violet aromatics, smoked meats, and blueberry compote.

The Best and Worst Super Bowl Booze Ads, Ranked (2023)
The Super Bowl is the perfect opportunity to kick back with some friends, munch on chips and guac, and sip some cold beers while watching the game. Or, if you’re less athletically-inclined, it’s the biggest night of the year to enjoy humorous and heartfelt commercials. Plenty of beverage companies showed up during this year’s commercial breaks — and notably more beer brands after Anheuser-Busch slashed its long-standing exclusive advertising relationship last year.

Rules, Regulations & complications galore around the harvest in Champagne
When to start picking As if life wasn’t difficult enough for grape growers and wine makers wherever in the world they may be, when it comes to the harvest in Champagne, there seems to be an extra level of complication, or to be more accurate, several extra layers. Too many in fact to explain in just one short article, so let’s deal with them one topic at a time starting with the decision about when to start picking. You might assume that each vineyard owner would simply check the ripeness of his or her crop as the fruit matured on the vines and decide on the right moment to start picking. To a large extent this is still the case, but things are a little more complex than that. There are some 320 villages in Champagne and these are spread out over an area that, broadly speaking, is 120 km square. You can imagine that the variations in location mean that the grapes in one area don’t always ripen at exactly the same rate as the grapes in another. In addition, there are three main varietie

podcast· 7:53Cab Sav from Bordeaux or Rioja from Spain? Master Somm MUST choose!
What happens when you hand a sommelier a mystery glass and ask them to identify a world-class red wine — completely blind? In this episode of Got Somme , we put the palate to the ultimate test with a stunning Rioja Gran Reserva 2016 that left us speechless (and one of us with actual goosebumps). We got ours here: https://www.platinumfinewine.com.au/product/bodegas-lan-gran-reserva/ From deep ruby colour to lingering pencil-shaving tannins, this wine delivered layer after layer of complexity — black currant, black plum, truffle, leather, clove, nutmeg, star anise, and what our co-host could only describe as fresh pasta flour . The nose alone was worth the price of admission. Was it Bordeaux? Was it Rioja? Tune in as we break down every clue, make the call, and reveal just how well a 10-year-old wine can hide its age. Rioja Gran Reserva 2016 Region: Rioja, Spain Variety: Tempranillo Aging: Gran Reserva (60 months total — 24 months in oak, 24 months in bottle minimum) Oak: French oak (mod

videoThe A-Z of Wine: 'Q' is for 'Qvevri' and 'R' is for 'Rkatsiteli'
Today, we head off the beaten track to cover two exciting entries in the A-Z: the clay winemaking vessel known as a "Qvevri", buried under the earth to keep it cool in a Marani (winery), and the ancient grape "Rkatsiteli" – both native to Georgia (the country, not "Georgia on my mind" Georgia). The archaeological evidence for winemaking goes back ~8000 years in Georgia (the oldest in the world) and they were making Rkatsiteli wine using Qvevri – they've found the old vessels in ancient cave systems, and they had the Rkatsiteli seeds in them! So this is an ancient style of wine we're tasting. Qvevri winemaking is in fact so distinctive that it's been recognised by UNESCO as a truly distinctive part of Georgia's cultural heritage. And, on top of all of that – as if it weren't enough to be cracking on with – this is an Amber wine: a wine made from white grapes, but using the red wine technique. So much to explore in just 3 minutes!
