Just down the road is @nordiecafe and I am having a treat tonight. Hmmm, maybe match with a Gruner? Back to pruning for now.

Vaughn Dell was a winemaker driven to do the best he could from his little corner of a world he left too soon. More importantly, he was Linda’s husband and Clem and Esme’s dad. His story is here: theaustralian.com.au/life/fo…

Pretty interesting to see research going down this path. Useful for blind tasting, so many assumptions when we get a pale red or a darkish Pinot that might not be true.

Don't judge a Pinot by its colour! New research suggests the colour of your Pinot Noir might not be as important as you think. Some great work being done as part of the Pinot Noir Programme, run by @BragatoResearch. stuff.co.nz/life-style/food-… #nzwine @NZStuff

Don't judge a pinot by its colour, experts say

We've all turned our nose up at a light-looking pinot noir. That's because we don't know what we're talking about.

To me they look like a Shoreditch resto c 2017 or a French motel 1997. I fear the design won't age well, but they're certainly distinctive. A boon to blind tasters who get a glimpse of them?

I’m out of the house in this amazing thing called a ‘restaurant’ and they are serving me drinks and food and being ace. Fuck I’ve missed hospo. And had to make it Heart Attack & Vine (Carlton) as they literally got us through.

Why don't racist, nationalist, protectionist, misogynist, despotic, militarist, authoritarian, grandstanding governments ever, ever look at history. This is how it inevitably ends. My sad, sad heart goes out to all who suffer.
