Allan Border talks wine and Ashes predictions
from Drinks Adventures - Wine, beer, whisky, gin & more with James Atkinson · host Wine, Beer & Whisky Network Australia
Allan Border’s Maiden Tonne is a limited edition shiraz released by the legendary cricketer in partnership with Sanguine Estate, the Heathcote, Victoria winery owned by the Hunter family. Allan is with us this episode along with Sanguine winemaker Mark Hunter. I’ll leave it to them to share the back story of this wine, which Mark hopes will elevate Heathcote’s reputation as a region synonymous with premium shiraz. Also in the interview, Allan reflects on his maiden tonne in cricket. I ask him whether drinking culture has changed in the Australian dressing room. And, with the Ashes starting on Friday, we get his thoughts on the Australians’ prospects in England. In fairness to Allan I should point out that the interview was recorded a couple of weeks ago, before Australia’s resounding victory against India in the WTC Final.
