Author: SESSION in PROGRESS November 14, 2024 Duration: 25:15

Owner Lindsay McCall and Head Wine Maker Jamie McCall of Paringa Estate take us on a deep dive into the legacy and craftsmanship behind one of the Mornington Peninsula's premier wineries. With a rich family history, Paringa Estate has become known for producing exceptional Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, drawing on time-honored techniques and innovative practices to create wines that stand out.

With the release of the LJM Pinot Noir, Lindsay and Jamie share what this bottle means to them and how it symbolises a generational bond, merging father and son’s passion and expertise in a wine that represents both heritage and future ambition for Paringa Estate. 

Sharing their journey of vineyard management, highlighting methods that contribute to their celebrated wines’ complex flavor profiles. 

The conversation also addresses the impact of wine packaging choices on consumer perception, the importance of aging for wine quality, and the careful balance of tradition and innovation that defines their work.

Ever felt a bit lost staring at a wine list or wondering what you're actually tasting in your glass? Got Somme is here to help, without any of the pretence. This isn't a stuffy lecture; it's a conversation between Master Sommelier Carlos Santos and his mate, radio announcer Angus O'Loughlin, who's keen to learn but starting from scratch. Each episode, Carlos guides Angus-and by extension, all of us-through the fundamentals, breaking down everything from grape varieties and regional styles to understanding why a wine tastes the way it does. The real magic happens when they're joined by some of the world's most respected winemakers, who share the stories and craft behind their bottles. You'll hear Carlos explain how to pick a good wine from a bad one, demystifying terms like tannin and terroir along the way. It's an accessible, often funny journey into wine, perfect for anyone who enjoys a glass but wants to understand the world behind it. Produced by SESSION in PROGRESS, this podcast turns curiosity into genuine knowledge, one bottle at a time.
