Author: SESSION in PROGRESS November 16, 2023 Duration: 28:33

Carlos Santos MS has selected the wines he orders on a wine list and explains why YOU should too!

He takes us on a wine journey through Portugal and France, from complex reds to delicious sweet wines explaining the reasons why he loves his choices and the impact they had on his wine career leading him to be one of less than 270 Master Sommeliers in the WORLD!

Then wine novice and student Angus O'Loughlin will blind taste them to see how close he can get to these unique varietals. You won't BELIEVE what happens when he tastes a Domaine Tempier Bandol!!

Carlos is still in shock at the results 🤯

Three wines:

2019 Luis Seabra Xisto Ilimitado Branco

2020 Domaine Tempier Bandol 'Lulu & Lucien'

2010 Bourgoin Pineau des Charentes 'Elevage Oxidatif'

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.
