Send us a textWord of Mouth was our first real introduction into Orange wines and there was no better way to learn about it than with Peter and Deb.  Both were so hospitable, warm, and accommodating.  You can understand why they won an Australian Best Cellar Door Award from Gourmet Wine Traveller and The Real Review Certificate of Excellence.In this episode we get to interview Peter Gibson who founded Word of Mouth Wines (WOM) in 1999.  We have never learnt so much about wine in only 30 minutes! Peter is one of those people that has a 'twinkle' in their eye when they speak.  You can tell he has an intrigue, passion, and curiosity for winemaking, and it reflects in the unique variety and high-quality of wines and that WOM sell.  Peter taught us so much about the uniqueness of the Orange wine region, his approach to winemaking, and introduced us to the unique wines (many of which we had never tasted before) that WOM make including a Manseng and Grunner Veltliner.  Of course, we had to try their Pinot Gris too since Peter was the first to plan the grape variety in Orange region in 1998.The wines are fantastic (we bought 3 x cases) and on top of their warm hospitality, they have fantastic artwork, pottery, food, and of course Artemis (whom they affectionately refer to as 'the big hairy mutt').  If you want to learn about Orange wineries, learn about the high-quality wines at WOM, learn about some of the 2000+ varieties of grapes, learn about winemaking, and most importantly understand the importance of intrigue and curiosity in anything that you do, then listen / watch this episode.Thank you Peter and Deb for your warm hospitality.  Also thank you for finding the box of clean skin 2013 1K High Riesling!  The Spatlese style riesling was delicious and reminded us of the Joh Jos Prum German Rieslings we reviewed in the episode 'Really, Really, Really Delicious German Riesling'.Subscribe to  @TheWinedUp and comment below on any wineries that you have visited from Orange or your favourite wine from Word of Mouth Wines.Chapters:0:00 Introduction0:30 4 icebreaker questions3:30 Orange wine region9:06 History and origin of Word of Mouth Wines10:36 Approach to winemaking14:00 1K High Riesling16:13 1K High Pinot Grigio21:43 1K High Grunner Veltliner24:50 1K High Manseng29:23 The Wined Up - Conclusion#wine #orange #manseng #riesling #grunnerveltliner #wordofmouthwinesThe content in this episode are our own personal experiences and opinions.  There are no paid ads or promotions.Follow Us on YouTube (@TheWinedUp), Instagram (The.Wined.Up), Tik Tok (@TheWinedUp), Spotify (The Wined Up), Amazon Music ( TheWinedUp), and Apple Podcasts (The Wined Up).
