OWS#6: Victorian Winemakers (Part 1) – Roy Moorfield and Savaterre
The interviews this episode include Roy Moorfield, who founded the event 27 years ago and Keppell Smith, owner and winemaker at Savaterre. These guys were most accommodating with being interviewed on the spur of the moment and both are clearly very passionate about what they do. Keppell produces some fantastic wine and I highly recommend adding yourself to his mailing list. Savaterre’s production and distribution are limited but the mailing list is a direct way to access the coming releases.

Setback from the Gods

Consequently it’s all fried and I’m waiting for new gear to arrive. I may have also lost a lot of audio. I had [...]
