Yes I would love to see more country focused episodes! Noah nailed it this round

@LadyAceRoxy 2 years ago

Yes please to more blind country identification! Bravo to Noah for being so spot on! Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is probably my favorite type of wine (I love aromatic dry white wines) ever, but it’s so cool to see what else New Zealand can do! Awesome video, super interesting.

Early on in my wine journey I would pick a region & try to find every example of what producers were growing. More recently I have been choosing a varietal & finding examples throughout the world of that grape. Both angles have helped me learn what the terroir does versus what the fruit brings to the table. Absolutely love the channel - all the different angles you take help me learn. [Though I do wish more of these wines were avail in US]

A Kiwi episode!! And the glasses returned to their natural left to right tasting order!!!!!! 😁😂 You boys are too good. Thank you 🥰

We had gooseberries in our garden growing up. Loved them.

@ianwheeler9824 2 years ago

really cool!
would love to see more like this

Had Gooseberry planted all around the barn at my Grandparent’s farm in northern Sweden, used to make marmelade and jam from it. They are SUPER tart when not ripe, and they ripen late in the season.

But come to think about it dont think I’ve ever seen it sold commercially…

Really enjoying the show and vids. Great way to use the method to pick a country….. cool. Yeah would love to see more!

Love seeing Henry being a graphic design AND an orange wine elitist ("You know, I've had so many, I need something a BIT more left of the center to pique my interest").
Also, I've definitely had a lot of gooseberry growing up in Sweden. They are somehow tasty and not tasty at the same time.

@ashleydunn3926 2 years ago (edited)

My grandad had a gooseberry tree and made gooseberry wine back in the day here in England.

Great episode and looks like an absolute blast! I'm finding the Bilancia for between $30-$36 per bottle in Auckland. Te Mata Awatea 2019 is between $38-$50. The Kumeu Coddington from $65 and up, the Unkel Life's for $34, the Blank Canvas for $30. Can't find the 2021 Charteris, though the 2022 is $55.

Noah has been crushing bracket

@frederikvitkov4653 2 years ago

Confirming the gooseberry note. It's spot on :)

@1939ba 2 years ago

You could probably get some cape gooseberry (aka peruvian groundcherry). Like a cross between a passionfruit and a very ripe cherry tomato. They grow really well in Adelaide!

@DC_12345 2 years ago (edited)

Yeah here in NZ these wines are a bit cheaper, but not by quite as much as you'd expect but I've seen that Syrah in stores in NZ for like ~$30 NZD so I'll definitely give it a go. The same producer has another Syrah called 'La Collina' which is quite a bit more expensive (like over $100), not sure if it's available in Aus, but it could be an interesting side-by-side comparison?
18:47 Our beaches aren't all frosty! Only down south - the ones in the north are pretty warm all summer, so a cheeky glass or two of chilled wine goes down a treat 😁
I really enjoyed the episode, please do more of this format!

@Ruirspirul 2 years ago

I have tried gooseberry and it smells exactly like Sauvignon Blanc… cat pee on the other side it absolute rubbish. have been living with cats all my life😅

Gooseberry is passion fruit with celery, lime, green grapes and a little lichi. Depending on how ripe the are the green notes are more prominent and more ripe the passion fruit dominates with more red grape notes.

@davo2225 2 years ago

I remember gooseberries being fun to pick and unwrap but they taste like disappointment. Something like bland cherry tomato seeds left out in the sun.
