Episode Synopsis

Today’s show is a delicious journey around the world of wine — starting right here at home with my Wines of the Week, including a little sunshine from the Loire Valley and a bold red with real attitude from South Africa. Then, we’re heading to Bordeaux, where I’ll be joined by Véronique Hombreux from Mouton Cadet to talk about something truly inspiring — their Fair for Life certification, and how this historic Bordeaux house is leading the way in social and environmental sustainability. From there, we’ll stay in Bordeaux for a moment and dive into the rich history of J. Lebègue with Jean-Pierre Durand, a man who knows this iconic brand inside and out — and whose stories will transport you straight to the vineyards of the Médoc. And finally, we’ll take a long flight across the world to New Zealand, where we’ll explore the elegant, world-class wines of Kumeu River — a name that’s redefining what New Zealand Chardonnay can be.
