We catch up with Giles Cooke, winemaker and Award Winning Varietal (grenache) recipient at the 2022 Halliday Wine Companion Awards, to discuss all things grenache!

While many of us enjoy wine, we don’t necessarily feel confident talking about it. It can often feel intimidating and a little highbrow.

Journalist, and deputy editor of Halliday Wine Companion, Tom Carr sits down with industry professionals from across the country in this conversational podcast that tackles all things wine from a palatable perspective. From how to taste and describe it, to how to pair it to that dinner party you’re hosting next weekend.

Together let's crack a bottle, shave the palaver, and take it back to basics.
