Till the moment we pressed record on the podcast equipment host Angus O'Loughlin had NO idea that Malbec not only could be grown in France but was the first region to do so!

Prepare to embark on a wine-tasting journey like no other as we uncork the hidden treasures of unconventional wine regions and explore the unexpected locales where grapes thrive and fine wines are crafted, defying traditional norms and surprising even the most seasoned oenophiles.

PLUS

We loosely talk about Hydroponic wineries, where grapes are nurtured in nutrient-rich water solutions, free from soil constraints. Discover how this innovative approach to viticulture maximizes efficiency, minimizes environmental impact, and produces grapes of exceptional quality, resulting in wines that are as sustainable as they are delicious.

From controlled indoor environments to vertical farming systems, hydroponic vineyards are reshaping the landscape of winemaking, allowing vintners to push the boundaries of flavor and aroma in ways never thought possible. Raise your glass to innovation and sustainability, and join us on a journey to discover the extraordinary flavors of hydroponic wines.

Cheers to a greener, more flavorful future!

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.
