Doug Neal - achieving cult status by crafting brilliant wines

Send us Fan MailIt is rare to achieve or merit cult status in the Aus wine scene. However, Doug Neal has done just that. His breadth of experience stretches from Burgundy to Bordeaux and across to California - back home in Australia he applied his Midas touch at Giaconda and the legendary Paradise IV before setting his sights on new ambitions with labels Altera Terra and Gaffy and Neal. Consistent with his personal ethos, Doug’s commitment is to making, not just good but brilliant wines. He does not settle for mediocrity. Once upon a time teacher, Doug has the knack for critical analysis and a sort of straightness of vision upon which he has built a revered reputation across Australian Wine. Doug not only shares his many journeys with me, but also his perspectives on the current state of affairs in the Australian wine world and his aspirations for the future of Australian wine. A legendary conversation, a massive thanks to Doug for joining me.Support the show
