Wine Muse Podcast Featuring Saint Clair Family Estate 2012 Sauvignon Blanc - New Zealand @saintclairwine

We began the October podcast with a long-distance call to Marlborough, New Zealand to speak with Hamish Clark , Senior Winemaker for Saint Clair Family Estate . Hamish shared with us why Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand is so special and many details on growing grapes and making wine on the South Island. * Show Link : Listen to the show . Our second winemaker conversation was with Katie Nelson , Winemaker for 'O' Wines in Washington State. Each purchase of 'O' wines helps fund scholarship to send young women to college through the 'O' Wines Opportunity for Success Scholarship program. Katie also spent 6 weeks working harvest in New Zealand this April. Of course we asked her about the experience of living, working and making wine in New Zealand. A fun and inspiring discussion.
