This episode is part one with Quintessa winemaker Rebekah Wineburg. We are comparing wine regions to Napa Valley, looking at the differences of Sauvignon Blanc in Napa compared to New Zealand and talking about Biodynamics in the vineyard. Alongside this you will learn about Sauvignon Musque, how fermentation vessels affect the flavour of wine, and who Rebekah's inspiration and mentor has been in the wine world.
