Sabbatical Break
After over 3.5 years of podcasting, 175 episodes, and over 100k downloads - it's time to take a break. I'm so grateful for each and every one of you who tunes in each Wednesday morning to my show! I love this podcast and enjoy creating new wine content every week for you, but I also recognize that it's important to rest and recharge my creative battery.
I'll be taking a sabbatical from my weekly Wine CEO Podcast and will also be taking a short break from social media in the coming weeks. If you have any questions about wine or requests for future content/ episodes, please feel free to email me Sarah@thewineceo.com or DM me on Instagram @thewineceo and I will respond to you when I return from my break.
Thank you all for your love and support! I'm so grateful for this community and the encouragement you have shown me over the last few years. I hope you drink something new and delicious this week and I will see you all soon!

    I'm going to buy Jane and Jonathan's book. Hope our local Australian prices don't rise due to exports. Check out this list of wineries and wine varieties produced. Sam Miranda Arneis Michelini Vermentino Piano Piano Pinot Grigio Francesco Prosecco Pizzini Verduzzo Dal Zotto Garganega (soava) Trimboli Trebbiano De Bortoli Fiano Polotini Grecanica Looks like Italy? No, it's the Victorian Alpine Valleys settled by Italian immigrants from the 1920's onward. Then there is Rutherglen world famous for its fortified wines and Durif, on the palate blueberries, blackberries, dark chocolate, plums, black pepper, espresso, menthol, mocha and black tea that will cellar for decades. Warrabilla Reserve Parola Durif is one of my favourites. Beechworth produces world class chardonnay. Anyone with an interest in wine, visiting Australia, could easily spend a week or two doing cellar door tastings at these three regions in North East Victoria All are within 60 min of Albury Wodonga. Nearly all are small family owned wineries. I'm so fortunate to live in this region. Interesting fact. The world's oldest wine producing Shiraz, Mourvedre, Grenache and Cab Sav vines are in the Barossa. Eden Valley has some of oldest Reisling vines still producing wine. Most were planted in the 1830's. No phylloxera in South Australia.

    Great information and well presented. I live in Perth and have access to the lesser known region of Swan Valley (excellent wines) and Margaret River. Many people don't realise that Australia actually has some of the oldest vines in the world and due to the unique terroir and climate, I consider some wines to be like Old World wines on steroids. I have bought several cases of wine from Taylors Wines (no affiliation) which would absolutely crush the current "popular" international Australian wine market. As an example, Taylors Wines in South Australia won the International Champion 2022 award from VINUS for the 2020 Estate Shiraz label, and last year received a perfect 100 point score from the VINUS panel for the 2022 Taylors Heritage Label Shiraz. I was lucky to get a case direct from the cellar, before major restaurants around the world bought all remaining stock and sold out within days. The following is obviously my own biased opinion, but the Yellow Tail red wine sold in America is like having the worst tasting American beer (according to US statistics) representing American beers. No one I know touches that stuff, which is why it is shipped off (or should I sarcastically say deported) to you guys. It would be interesting to see how Jonathan Ross views this.

      Hey! Thanks for watching! This was my final episode of a 6 month mini series. For those who followed the mini series, they have much more context to this overview of my personal opinions from my 8 week trip. I think I mentioned that I only traveled to the northern Rhône and that I would love to visit the south in the future so I can make a more informed assessment in the future :) and I agree - in my travel tips episodes throughout the mini series, I always recommend booking direct with the chateaus and domains - but you’d be surprised at how many offer cellar door walk ups, especially in Hermitage.

    Sarah, as you know, Matt Walls is a wine writer who is a true expert on Rhone wines. It was quite the coup to be able to do a long interview with him. I must say i felt frustrated that you had a real expert on the region, but you chose to do an extremely elementary podcast. There are hundreds of wine people who can give an elementary view on the region. I feel you missed out on an opportunity and therefore so did your viewers. Perhaps you can do another podcast with him and go very deep. I feel that would greatly expand your audience. Also, i know it's not easy to do, but it is important to correct incorrect or false information which even experts can proffer. For example, Matt says northern Rhone reds are only the Syrah grape. Yes, in Cornas, the AOC/AOP requires 100% Syrah, but Cote Rotie allows quite a bit of the white grape Viognier. In fact, it is quite common to include Viognier in Cote Rotie, it gives a beautiful lift to Cote Rotie. Hermitage allows the white grape Marsanne in Hermitage Rouge. Though it isnt as common to add white grapes in Hermitage as in Cote Rotie. Of course Matt Walls knows this, but he somehow said the opposite and it requires correcting.

      Thank you for watching this episode Robert! I agree that Matt is a true expert on the Rhone and it was very kind of him to offer an entry level overview since this was more in line with the needs of my average listener than his typical content. He was also kind enough to offer to join me again in the future when my listener base is ready for a more robust 'deep dive' into the Rhone. Matt was looking to keep things very simple and approachable for my audience, which is also why we simplified the discussion of red wines in the north. Hopefully it was a fun intro for those who know little about the Rhone Valley and they will look to try wines from this region now :) Thank you again for watching!
