Overview
An educator, reviewer, judge, frequent guest expert on radio and television, and the brains behind the mobile app Australian Wine Vintages, Master of Wine Rob Geddes has been a forerunner in the democratization of the wine industry. In this twelve-part audio course, he shares some tricks of the trade with the casual wine-drinker. Taking cues from Geddes's expertise, you will consider the chemistry behind the creation of flavor--the nuances of which he breaks down into the balance, length, intensity, and complexity of flavor. As you'll see, he praises bottles under $20 with the same enthusiasm as bottles over $150. Throughout the program, Geddes recommends wines for you to sample. The effect is of touring wine country, minus the costs of travel and lodging. You will get to explore a number of familiar wines in depth, including the following: - Cabernet Sauvignon (from Chile and Anderson Valley, California); - Champagne and Sparkling Wines; - Chardonnay (from the Napa Valley and Australia); - Merlot (from Italy and California); - Pinot Grigio (from Italy and Oregon); and - Port and Madeira. Whether you aim to assemble your own amateur collection or aspire to become more knowledgeable about pairings, Geddes's program is right up your alley.
