In our first summer broadcast compilation, you’ll hear Barney and Duncan made to sound stupid by the likes
of Kate McIntyre (with her Master of Wine-sized brain) and Max Allen
with his oh-so-green biodynamic ways. Max also gives cred to the
idea that fancy booze gives you less of a hangover than cheap booze. Cheers!

Duncan & Barney re-emerge from knee-deep Vintage 08
grape-wading, to bring you segments on wine media & listener questions, all
the while regaling you with gallant tales from the viticultural trenches,
between delicate (BUUUURRP!) sips of The Moorooduc Pinot Noir 2004 and banter
too audacious to swallow, yet too delectable to expectorate. Cheers, and..ahem,
pardon.
