Wine Chat: What is a Sommelier
Welcome to wine chat, each and every week we are joined by Cal Lee, 2SER’s resident wine expert, to take a deep dive into a specific topic relating to the world of wine.
Here at Wine Chat we aim to remove the pomp and gate keeping in wine culture. Give you a bit of knowledge about what is in your glass, how the wine world actually works, and help you to find a bottle that you’ll love.
This week we’ll be discussing what is a sommelier, and what isn’t a sommelier.
Wine of the week
2024 Parley ‘Mood in Scarlet’ Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc Coonawarra & Adelaide Hills, South Australia
Cal Says: A blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from Coonawarra, and 30% Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc. Crunchy red fruits, rhubarb apple crumble, and dried herbs. A heavier rose but structured and dry on the finish, really food versatile works great with seafood pastas, roast chicken or cheese. Drink now don’t wait.
