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

2
00:00:10,573 --> 00:00:11,693
Speaker 1: from News Talks AB.

3
00:00:12,853 --> 00:00:16,013
Speaker 2: Cameron Douglas is our master Soamelier and for his pick

4
00:00:16,093 --> 00:00:18,933
Speaker 2: this week, he has chosen a Tahu Peno Greed from

5
00:00:18,973 --> 00:00:23,333
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five the Awaitedi Valley in Marlborough. It retails

6
00:00:23,333 --> 00:00:25,613
Speaker 2: for about nineteen dollars and Cameron's with us this morning.

7
00:00:25,693 --> 00:00:28,733
Speaker 3: Good morning, good, good morning. How are you very well?

8
00:00:28,773 --> 00:00:31,453
Speaker 2: Thank you? So tell us about the Tahu Penal Gree.

9
00:00:32,453 --> 00:00:37,133
Speaker 3: Well, Tahu Wines a very special producer because not only

10
00:00:37,173 --> 00:00:40,893
Speaker 3: founded in nineteen ninety eight, they're the world's first Maori

11
00:00:41,013 --> 00:00:45,133
Speaker 3: owned wine company and I think that's pretty special. The

12
00:00:45,293 --> 00:00:49,533
Speaker 3: location for their vineyards for this particular wine is the

13
00:00:49,653 --> 00:00:53,053
Speaker 3: Auitre or Autree Valley, and I know lots of listeners

14
00:00:53,093 --> 00:00:56,453
Speaker 3: will know Marlborough generally speaking, and you know the fame

15
00:00:56,493 --> 00:00:59,053
Speaker 3: of Sauvignon blanc from there. This is more on the

16
00:00:59,093 --> 00:01:04,093
Speaker 3: eastern side and a northern facing vineyards, so you get

17
00:01:04,133 --> 00:01:06,053
Speaker 3: to see the South Island on a clear day. That's

18
00:01:06,053 --> 00:01:12,653
Speaker 3: pretty cool. This wine is all about or pinagree should

19
00:01:12,693 --> 00:01:18,533
Speaker 3: always be about palet weight, freshness and flavor and including

20
00:01:18,613 --> 00:01:21,253
Speaker 3: sort of the sparkling wine and panaware and chardoney riaslings

21
00:01:21,373 --> 00:01:24,213
Speaker 3: that they make. They all teck those boxes of palate weight,

22
00:01:24,333 --> 00:01:29,133
Speaker 3: freshness and flavor. This particular expression from twenty five has

23
00:01:29,173 --> 00:01:31,813
Speaker 3: a little bit of delicacy about it. It still has

24
00:01:31,853 --> 00:01:37,573
Speaker 3: that bright, taught, fresh, salivating mouthfeel which Penatgree should have,

25
00:01:38,613 --> 00:01:43,893
Speaker 3: and those flavors of red and green apple, white peach,

26
00:01:44,213 --> 00:01:48,373
Speaker 3: pear and even honeysuckle. Dump all of this flavor in

27
00:01:48,413 --> 00:01:52,333
Speaker 3: the mid palate and that's all surrounded by this freshness

28
00:01:52,373 --> 00:01:58,453
Speaker 3: of acidity that with vineyards from the ar Witree you

29
00:01:58,493 --> 00:02:03,253
Speaker 3: get this nice saline effect, and that's in part from

30
00:02:03,373 --> 00:02:06,173
Speaker 3: proximity to the ocean, but it's also part of the

31
00:02:06,413 --> 00:02:10,173
Speaker 3: acid line, that natural flavor, that acid acidity can bring

32
00:02:10,573 --> 00:02:15,253
Speaker 3: to wines from this particular place. Great mouth feel from

33
00:02:15,333 --> 00:02:17,733
Speaker 3: a really really good vintage. So it's a it's a

34
00:02:17,733 --> 00:02:19,573
Speaker 3: beautiful wine to try at a fabulous price.

35
00:02:19,653 --> 00:02:21,693
Speaker 2: Yeah right, So tell us a bit more about the

36
00:02:21,733 --> 00:02:23,253
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five vintage in.

37
00:02:23,133 --> 00:02:28,413
Speaker 3: Marlborough overall, if I had to say two words, rather

38
00:02:28,653 --> 00:02:34,613
Speaker 3: excellent overall, a warm spring, almost near perfect flowering conditions,

39
00:02:34,653 --> 00:02:36,253
Speaker 3: not too windy at all, and that is a you know,

40
00:02:36,333 --> 00:02:39,333
Speaker 3: it's a fairly windy place down there, but near perfect

41
00:02:39,333 --> 00:02:44,253
Speaker 3: flowering conditions which gave good yields, so plenty of fruit harvested.

42
00:02:45,053 --> 00:02:48,773
Speaker 3: There's this term and wine making or grape growing called

43
00:02:48,893 --> 00:02:52,493
Speaker 3: the diurnal shift. In this particular part of New Zealand

44
00:02:52,973 --> 00:02:57,333
Speaker 3: has it in spades. If you like very very warm days,

45
00:02:57,493 --> 00:03:01,773
Speaker 3: very cool night, so it allows the wine, the vineyard,

46
00:03:01,813 --> 00:03:04,813
Speaker 3: the grapes to or in the vines to breathe in

47
00:03:04,853 --> 00:03:08,173
Speaker 3: and out with the flow of a day, if that

48
00:03:08,213 --> 00:03:10,173
Speaker 3: makes sense sense. The planet breeds in it out, so

49
00:03:10,293 --> 00:03:12,533
Speaker 3: does these vines in it, and it works particularly well

50
00:03:12,573 --> 00:03:13,493
Speaker 3: in this area.

51
00:03:13,573 --> 00:03:16,373
Speaker 2: Oh nice. So what would you match the tahoo peanut

52
00:03:16,373 --> 00:03:16,773
Speaker 2: agree with?

53
00:03:18,693 --> 00:03:20,493
Speaker 3: I'm a big fan of sweet corn on the cob

54
00:03:20,533 --> 00:03:22,573
Speaker 3: and I can't help but suggest sweet corn on the

55
00:03:22,613 --> 00:03:26,413
Speaker 3: cob with lots and lots of butter. I was brought

56
00:03:26,453 --> 00:03:28,093
Speaker 3: up putting butter on sweet corn on the cob, and

57
00:03:28,133 --> 00:03:31,733
Speaker 3: I can't help but do that. Lots of butter, lots

58
00:03:31,733 --> 00:03:36,053
Speaker 3: of salt and top peanutgree works really well. If you

59
00:03:36,293 --> 00:03:40,813
Speaker 3: like sour cream, put lemon juice and sour cream in

60
00:03:40,893 --> 00:03:43,053
Speaker 3: a little sprinkle of nutmeg, so you can dip the

61
00:03:43,333 --> 00:03:48,613
Speaker 3: salted buttered corn in that and peanutgree works particularly well.

62
00:03:48,973 --> 00:03:51,733
Speaker 3: If you're not a fan of corn on the cob

63
00:03:51,853 --> 00:03:54,653
Speaker 3: but you like sweet corn anyway, then make some fritters

64
00:03:54,773 --> 00:03:57,013
Speaker 3: top of with sour cream and smoke salmon. It's just

65
00:03:57,373 --> 00:03:58,693
Speaker 3: delightful in a perfect match.

66
00:03:59,933 --> 00:04:03,733
Speaker 2: Damn, Cameron, you got my stomach rumbling this morning. Sounds amazing.

67
00:04:03,813 --> 00:04:06,733
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm a bit angry too now yeah, yeah, thank you.

68
00:04:06,813 --> 00:04:08,893
Speaker 2: So much, very good. So Cameron's picked for us this

69
