Ep 91: Chambers Rosewood Vineyards | Stephen Chambers _ Part B

Send us Fan MailWe head back to Chambers Rosewood Vineyards with Stephen Chambers as harvest comes into sharp focus.Picking season is hectic, fast-paced, and full of decisions — from grape varieties and timing, to the ongoing challenges of smoke taint from bushfires and increasingly unpredictable seasons. Stephen walks us through the shift from hand picking, to mechanical harvesting, and back again, and what those choices mean in the glass.We also talk fortified wines — world-famous, and sometimes more than a century in the making — including an 1890 Muscat still quietly waiting its moment. Stephen reflects on his father, Bill Chambers, a legend of Australian wine who worked well into his 80s, and why in this business, good things really do come to those who wait.And yes — Charlie the cockatoo makes a return appearance.
