In this episode of the Vinimark Podcast, we talk to Rosa Kruger, the founder of the Old Vine Project (OVP) here in South Africa. Rosa shares some fascinating insights, and puts Jono in his place on more than one occasion! They discuss the OVP's exciting new projects, talk about the need for a culture of viticulture and explore the scientific studies that show just how different old vine wines are to their younger counterparts.
The discussion touches on the blindtasting of old vine wines, explores consumer behaviour in the sales of old vines, and covers the secret life of vines. Are grape vines sentient? Can vines communicate through the soil? Find out here!
