In Episode 276 of The Drinking Hour, we take a trip back through the audio archives hearing highlights from series 23 of the podcast. Black Chalk winemaker Jacob Leadley talks about being at the centre of an English wine boom and the challenges of the British climate, and newly crowned UK Sommelier of the Year Emma Denney shares her insights into competing at the wine world’s Olympic Games. There’s also a listen back to conversations with a trio of wine writers – Olly Smith, Helen McGinn and Peter Stafford-Bow – each one discussing their latest releases penned with wine lovers in mind. Finally, Kurtis Ogasawara, chief winemaker at Robert Mondavi, speaks of his experiences at the forefront of a Napa Valley icon.
