1
00:00:07,133 --> 00:00:10,453
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Saturday Morning with Jack Team podcast

2
00:00:10,573 --> 00:00:11,453
Speaker 1: from News Talks.

3
00:00:11,453 --> 00:00:15,533
Speaker 2: A't be time to get our Master Somalier's wine picked

4
00:00:15,533 --> 00:00:18,493
Speaker 2: for this weekend, and Cameron Douglas has chosen a Tuva

5
00:00:18,573 --> 00:00:21,613
Speaker 2: Iris penan Wi from twenty twenty four. He's with us

6
00:00:21,613 --> 00:00:24,253
Speaker 2: this morning. Get a Cameron, good morning.

7
00:00:24,293 --> 00:00:26,933
Speaker 3: What great pronunciation was wowne?

8
00:00:28,213 --> 00:00:31,173
Speaker 2: Look we definitely didn't just ask you the thirty seconds ago.

9
00:00:31,333 --> 00:00:35,013
Speaker 2: Just just a triple check the pronunciation of a chuvar iris.

10
00:00:35,093 --> 00:00:37,933
Speaker 2: But yeah, very good. So tell us about the wine.

11
00:00:38,373 --> 00:00:41,093
Speaker 3: Well, Tuva is a Croatian teram.

12
00:00:41,093 --> 00:00:43,733
Speaker 4: It means guardians, so it's always a great wine to

13
00:00:43,773 --> 00:00:47,013
Speaker 4: have by your side within clement weather.

14
00:00:47,133 --> 00:00:50,213
Speaker 3: And Iris, which is also on that label, is.

15
00:00:50,133 --> 00:00:52,573
Speaker 4: The national flower of Croatia.

16
00:00:54,733 --> 00:00:57,253
Speaker 2: Right, Okay, So a tuvar Iris is the name of

17
00:00:57,813 --> 00:01:01,413
Speaker 2: the wine. Is it like as a pen and wire?

18
00:01:01,453 --> 00:01:04,173
Speaker 2: Is it quite a fruity little number?

19
00:01:05,093 --> 00:01:08,653
Speaker 3: Yeah? Look, I would call this a complete wine. It's

20
00:01:08,653 --> 00:01:12,933
Speaker 3: in that ready to drink expression with a decent measure

21
00:01:12,973 --> 00:01:17,093
Speaker 3: of what I call deliciousness. You know, it's right, it's fruity.

22
00:01:17,133 --> 00:01:20,733
Speaker 4: It's got this core of varietal flavors that lots of

23
00:01:20,733 --> 00:01:23,733
Speaker 4: people and listeners like to expect from peanut, which is

24
00:01:23,773 --> 00:01:27,093
Speaker 4: that cherry raspberry, red flower.

25
00:01:26,653 --> 00:01:27,853
Speaker 3: Boisonberry mix.

26
00:01:28,373 --> 00:01:30,013
Speaker 4: But there's a little bit of wood spice in here

27
00:01:30,093 --> 00:01:32,013
Speaker 4: as well, you know, great pen and weiter comes with

28
00:01:32,053 --> 00:01:34,213
Speaker 4: a little bit of wood. And there's a term I

29
00:01:34,293 --> 00:01:36,933
Speaker 4: like to use when I'm writing about one called earth smoke,

30
00:01:37,373 --> 00:01:40,773
Speaker 4: and what that means is the echo of something from

31
00:01:40,813 --> 00:01:44,213
Speaker 4: the earth that underpins the wine, and in this case clay,

32
00:01:45,493 --> 00:01:48,973
Speaker 4: which is what it's grown on to a degree. It's

33
00:01:48,973 --> 00:01:52,293
Speaker 4: a lovely dry wine and it's what I also call

34
00:01:52,453 --> 00:01:57,453
Speaker 4: easily dissolved hannons, along with a great refreshing acid line.

35
00:01:57,453 --> 00:02:01,933
Speaker 4: So it does have youth, but it's immediate drinkability from today.

36
00:02:01,773 --> 00:02:04,333
Speaker 2: Oh very good. So you could hold on to it

37
00:02:04,333 --> 00:02:05,133
Speaker 2: for a couple of years.

38
00:02:05,213 --> 00:02:08,813
Speaker 4: You reckon absolutely. Twenty four is a great vintage, and

39
00:02:08,933 --> 00:02:13,653
Speaker 4: this wine has all the attributes to make it last

40
00:02:13,653 --> 00:02:15,133
Speaker 4: in your salad for a good couple of years.

41
00:02:15,853 --> 00:02:17,533
Speaker 2: And if you did want to have it sometime soon,

42
00:02:17,533 --> 00:02:18,773
Speaker 2: what would you match it with? Do you think?

43
00:02:20,053 --> 00:02:21,973
Speaker 4: Well, if you like me and you're hunkering down for

44
00:02:22,053 --> 00:02:25,413
Speaker 4: the next couple of days, I think that food that

45
00:02:25,653 --> 00:02:27,853
Speaker 4: is not only good for you, fills you up and

46
00:02:27,973 --> 00:02:31,293
Speaker 4: makes you feel good. At the same time, I'm suggesting

47
00:02:31,373 --> 00:02:35,613
Speaker 4: a risotto that is vegan in nature and also one.

48
00:02:35,533 --> 00:02:36,933
Speaker 3: Hundred percent gluten free.

49
00:02:37,653 --> 00:02:40,013
Speaker 4: And the tipping point with any kind of risotto is

50
00:02:40,813 --> 00:02:43,213
Speaker 4: whether or not you're going to use a vegan cheese

51
00:02:43,453 --> 00:02:47,333
Speaker 4: or a standard cheese and an international style cheese. And

52
00:02:47,893 --> 00:02:51,213
Speaker 4: Epic do a great brand of vegan cheddar which you

53
00:02:51,293 --> 00:02:55,293
Speaker 4: can use. But for somebody like me and even perhaps you, you.

54
00:02:55,333 --> 00:02:58,213
Speaker 3: Know, parmesan or pecorino grated.

55
00:02:57,933 --> 00:03:00,733
Speaker 4: Into that mix for service is always great. And if

56
00:03:00,773 --> 00:03:02,893
Speaker 4: you want to go a bit fancy, then drop a

57
00:03:02,973 --> 00:03:05,093
Speaker 4: knob of blue cheese in there as well.

58
00:03:06,453 --> 00:03:10,733
Speaker 2: Good, Yeah, because the parmesan gives you that amami as well,

59
00:03:10,773 --> 00:03:15,093
Speaker 2: doesn't it, And obviously the blue Yeah, so rich.

60
00:03:17,213 --> 00:03:20,013
Speaker 4: I'd also actually throw in a whole leak. Lots of

61
00:03:20,053 --> 00:03:22,573
Speaker 4: people go half an onion or half a red onion

62
00:03:22,693 --> 00:03:25,133
Speaker 4: or a little bit of leak or but throw a

63
00:03:25,213 --> 00:03:28,413
Speaker 4: whole leak in there. Cook that up first and reduce

64
00:03:28,533 --> 00:03:32,333
Speaker 4: that down and then just add any veggies that you like,

65
00:03:32,533 --> 00:03:33,813
Speaker 4: and it's a wonderful match.

66
00:03:34,013 --> 00:03:36,573
Speaker 2: Yeah, wonderful, Thank you, Cameron. So Cameron's picked for us

67
00:03:36,653 --> 00:03:39,213
