Wine Matters
by Wendy Laureti
Wine Matters is hosted by Wendy Laureti, the accidental winery owner of Saddler’s Creek Wines. In this podcast, I invite you to join me as I share what I believe is the true meaning of loving wine, and for me, that is bringing people together.I am no wine expert, though I am a wine lover. I love to learn and explore all things wine, including how it is made and how it is best enjoyed. What I’ve discovered is that the more I learn, the more I enjoy and appreciate wine. I would like to share with you what I’ve learned along the way and debunk some of the myths, but most importantly, I invite you to learn along with me. I will be inviting way more knowledgeable people than myself to share their expertise and their love of wine. Speaking to producers from the Hunter Valley and greater wine community.So cheers to Wine Matters!
