Step into the bold and innovative world of Mount Edward Wines in Central Otago with co-owner and winemaker Duncan Forsyth. In this episode, Jason and Trent go beyond traditional wine talk and explore what truly makes a wine unforgettable—stories, mistakes, memories, and a little rule-breaking.
From iconic Pinot Noir to experimental Chenin Blanc, Vermouth, and a Prosecco-style Riesling, discover how Mount Edward is pushing the boundaries of modern winemaking. Duncan opens up about his winemaking journey, the role of people and place in wine, and why embracing imperfection can lead to the best sips of your life.
Find out how a wine mistake led to a cult favorite, why bag-in-box wine deserves a second chance, and what’s next for this Central Otago favorite. Whether you're a seasoned wine lover or just wine-curious, this episode is packed with flavor, laughs, and a whole lot of insight.
Watch until the end for thoughts on natural wine trends, the magic of wine kegs, and geeky fortified wine experiments.
