    The Mystery of Minerality

    The Mystery of Minerality

    It's a wine word almost everyone uses - but no one really knows what it means, what causes it, or where it's come from.

    It makes some people angry, it leaves others mystified - but some adore the term and can't get enough of it. 

    Is this yet another example in wine of (as one listener calls it), 'superstition, witchcraft and myth' that is nothing more than, 'absolute b*llocks'?!

    Welcome to the big 'minerality' mystery.

    In this episode, we dare to dive headlong into the snakepit of confusion, ambiguity and downright mystery that is the notion of 'minerality' in wine.

    But we're not alone. We've recruited the likes of sensory scientist Dr Heber Rodrigues and writer Meg Maker to enlighten us with the latest research and thinking on this intriguing topic.

    We ask questions like: what makes a wine mineral? What do people mean by the term? Which wines in particular tend to show mineral characteristics? Is it a good or a bad thing? Is it a vineyard or winemaking phenomenon? 

    Ultimately - should we get rid of it, or cherish it?

    We taste two wines in order to put our own language under the microscope. There's an element of mud-slinging and mutual recrimination before we manage (more or less) to define what we mean by minerality.

    We also give a final judgement on whether, in our view, minerality should be part of the wine lexicon or not. The result...may surprise you.

    Wines tasted in this episode

    • UVC Chablis Premier Cru 2010, Esprit de Chablis, 12.5%
    • Anhydrous Afoura Santorini Assyrtiko 2021, 14%

    Santorini - Wines to Save an Island

    Santorini - Wines to Save an Island

    Santorini's future is in jeopardy. This ancient, famous island vineyard risks being lost beneath the tourism industry's bulldozers. So how can its wine community fight back?

    By making exceptional, characterful, inimitable wines and selling them to the world, that's how.

    In this episode (our 100th Wine Blast programme, appropriately enough!) we dive into what makes Santorini's wines as distinctive and unique as they undoubtedly are. From the steely, majestic dry Santorini Assyrtiko to the sumptuous vinsantos and all the curios in between, this is a vibrant wine scene that's only getting more diverse and quality-focused.

    Taking in views form the younger generation as well as more experienced hands, we discuss eye-opening topics from how the minerality of Santorini wines is exacerbated by the salt blown in off the sea to why Burgundy might be growing Assyrtiko soon.

    Along the way we touch on orange wine, flor, tasting an 1847 Santorini Assyrtiko, amphorae, alcohol, the future - and Peter somehow signs up for hard manual labour.

    This episode is the second and final installment in a sponsored mini-series in collaboration with Wines of PDO Santorini.

    Santorini - Wine's Jurassic Park

    Santorini - Wine's Jurassic Park

    Let's go on an adventure to a place variously described as, 'Like being shot to the moon with a glass of fine wine in your hand' and where, 'you basically have the personality of an active volcano in your glass.'

    Santorini is arguably the ultimate wine destination - a windswept, arid, infertile outcrop of an island in the glittering Aegean Sea. Stunning - but bleak, and where the memory of one of the most violet volcanic eruptions in human history can not only be seen but also tasted in your glass.

    Wine is one of the few crops to thrive here, albeit at the cost of back-breaking labour and marginal profitability due to tiny yields and regular setbacks. The island's historic sweet vinsantos have most likely been enjoyed for thousands of years - the dry whites made from the majestic, fierce Assyrtiko grape are astonishing symphonies of bracing acidity, steely structure and salty minerality.

    These are true jewels in the wine world's crown. One producer speculates, with good reason, that Santorini, 'is the oldest vineyard on the planet.' Phylloxera-free, you see... Hence the Jurassic Park reference.

    For Peter, Santorini Assyrtiko is the ultimate food wine, able to pair with everything from delicate oysters to rich lamb and beyond. No wonder one wine grower describes this place as, 'the Mecca of wine'.

    But all is not well in wine paradise. Climate change batters the vineyard in the form of heatwaves and hail. Mass tourism threatens not only to overwhelm the island's infrastructure and drain the workforce but, more critically, erase vineyards permanently as land is sold to developers.

    The result is that Santorini's vineyard has declined by a third between 2005 and 2022. 'Sometimes in Santorini it feels like we're forgotten by God' commented one local wine producer.

    Now, though, the island's wine community is fighting back. In this first episode of a two-part mini-series in collaboration with Wines of PDO Santorini, we set the scene - taking in the island's intriguing history, exploring the bizarre vineyards, talking to key wine producers, and not shying away from the challenges the island's wine community faces.

    As for how the wine producers are fighting to ensure wine's survival, we discover plans to declare the entire island's production organic - which would be the first ever entire PDO appellation to do such.

    There's also a UNESCO application in the pipeline - and plans to raise prices in order to ensure the survival of the vineyard.

    Don't miss the next and final episode in this mini-series, where we explore Santorini's fierce, remarkable grapes, wine and food - and look to the future, both in terms of challenges but also reasons to be hopeful.

    Ep. 74: "Volcanic" Wines with the World's Leading Expert, John Szabo, Master Sommelier

    In this episode of the Vint Podcast, Brady Weller and Billy Galanko chat with John Szabo, a Master Sommelier based in Canada and one of the world's leading experts on volcanic wines. John shares his insights into the nuances of volcanic wines around the world, from Italy's Mount Etna to Oregon's Columbia Valley, and how the unique mineral composition of volcanic soils can impact grape growing and wine production.

    We delve into some of John's favorite volcanic wine regions, including Santorini, Greece, and the Canary Islands, and explore the diversity of styles and flavors that can be found in these wines. We also discuss the challenges and opportunities of growing grapes on volcanic soils, including the importance of balancing the mineral characteristics of the soil with other factors like climate and vineyard management practices.


    Throughout the conversation, John shares his deep knowledge and passion for volcanic wines, as well as his insights into the evolving landscape of wine production and appreciation around the world.

    Santorini with Peter Maneas

    Santorini with Peter Maneas

    Join Tom, Nick and the host of hit TV series, My Greek Odyssey, Peter Maneas as Ouzo Talk kicks off a series on the Greek Islands. And what better place to start than arguably the most popular of them all - Santorini. Widely regarding as the postcard image of Greece, the sight of the island's steep cliffs overlooking the deep blue of the caldera, dotted by shiny white houses with blue doors and windows is one of – if not – the most romantic images that Greece has to offer, prompting millions of tourists to visit every year. But there’s much more to Santorini than that postcard image. From its unique Minoan history, architecture, food, produce, beaches and more, there's so much to see and experience. If you've ever thought of visiting Santorini, this is your guide.

    Season 5 of My Greek Odyssey is coming to you soon. Find out more: https://www.mygreekodyssey.com/
