In this episode, of Unscrewed TV, I taste a Central OtagoPinot Noir from vintage 2010. I knew nothing about this wine other than price, $19.99. Initially I was unfair at a Central Otago Pinot Noir at this price, invariably you get what you pay for, but at $20 it was really very good.
Jayson’s roots in wine began when his father literally dragged him round France and injected his passion into him. From the age of 8 his family took month long holidays in France travelling through all regions and sampling their wine.
UnScrewed has reinvented the concept of wine tasting in New Zealand and along the way found a new and willing audience. In addition to encouraging straightforward wine tasting, Jayson educates viewers about the effects of regional factors (soil, sun, wind) on wine flavours, and how to buy wine.
