We woke up, fasted then drank this wine at 10:30AM and THIS HAPPENED!

"Searing and sharp" - Angus O'Loughlin

We had to record this episode in the morning and Riesling could be the new alarm clock! Different to other Clare Valley styles we had tried this 2022 bottle hit the benchmarks we expected but needs some time in bottle.

Eat with oysters or sushi and definitely past 12pm 😉

Get this bottle where we got ours: Dan Murphys

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.
