Spill the Wine Episode 12: A unique experience – tasting wine from the tank! A visit to 16 Mile Cellar Vineyards & Winery

This episode provides tons of insights into the art of winemaking. Andrea Morris chats with 16 Mile cellar winemaker Morgan Juniper. Morgan shares information about the biodynamic approach to winemaking and talks about emotional winemaking versus lab driven winemaking. Bet you didn't know that was a thing! In addition, for the first time on the podcast, we discuss ladybugs, particularly the multicoloured Asian lady beetles, and the negative effect they can have on wine. Of course, we also taste some magnificent wines, and experience the first tastings of wine in it's very early stages, straight from the tank. You will definitely learn a lot from this episode.
