About this listen

 Within 18 months, Damo went from downing $9 bottles of wine at his rural NZ university, to pondering the chocolatey notes in a £300 bottle of Bordeux's finest at a London Michelin Star restaurant. This episode is a comprehensive breakdown of everything you could ever possibly want to know about growing grapes and winemaking, told from the perspective of a well-travelled, hardworking man from rural New Zealand. Damon has a Bachelors Degree in Viticulture and Onology (a quick google will resolve any confusion about those terms) as well as years of experience working in some of New Zealand and England's top vineyards. He now works as a junior sommelier at Kitchen W8, a London based Michelin Star Restaurant. I learnt so much from todays episode, i know you will too. ENJOY!
